1) A friend’s wife wrote me asking my opinion of #Remdesivir. I gave my scientific opinion of its misuse in the inflammatory phase of disease in hospitalized patients, and the damage that follows. I continued to say that with Omicron, there is no appropriate use at all!
2) she alarmingly wrote back, if he (her cousin) already had one dose, is it ok to stop? She proceeded to give me all of his labs and presentation history. I replied “yes, stop immediately”! Demand a z pack and medrol dosepak asap and AMA- discharge.
Well, she did.
Well, she did.
3) he shouldn’t have ever been admitted. He merely had presentation of a head cold, normal Sats and a positive covid test. The doctor said, and I quote…. “He is in the minority of people who respond so positively and so quickly to Remdesivir, that I didn’t need to even give
4) another dose of it.” She then proceeded to give him a script for a Z pak and a Medrol dosepak as she requested, and discharged him.
That was 2 days ago and he is home, well, and back to normal activity. I’m sickened by the completely made up explanation and actions.

5) I’m disgusted by what I’m seeing. That’s all. Science is ignored.
