I said from the start the obsession with ventilators was diverting attention away from crucial areas such as PPE and understanding the pathogenesis better. There is some criticism now of that porphyrin paper in the scientific literature but I believe it has some merit that needs further investigation. They need to sort out PPE, get more testing done, roll out antibody testing to improve the morale and workforce (and hope it correlates with long term clinical outcomes), and pray for a vaccine! The BCg data is interesting. So based on the evidence it’s best to have a sex change with hormone therapy (male to female), lose weight, control your BP (but don’t take ACE inhibitors), take vitamin C and D , wash your hands, socially isolate, do exercise to increase your lung capacity wear masks if you have to go out. Keep yourself warm, sleep lots & and stay upbeat and happy.
