@Pravduh15 It's a point about hospital treatments.

Informed consent is a thing. Most people facing a potentially crippling or lethal illness have a much greater risk tolerance against 'well maybe item 6 of 11 didn't do much to help here in retrospect' than you likely think. That already happens often in routine practice anyway!

If in doubt, *ask the patient*. People have a fundamental right to participate in their own health-- *they already do so 99% of the time anyway*. 'This might help with X; it's a bit less certain; may cause Y side effects; studies say usually well-tolerated; do you want to try?'

Again, the most useful points for a broad audience: - get vaccine ASAP; prefer mRNA or Novavax; 2 doses far better than 1 - store RCT-validated early treatments: bromhexine-or-ambroxol + nitazoxanide-or-niclosamide, fluvoxamine, ivermectin - N100 masks twitter.com/__ice9/status/…

.@NBCNews: The CDC is set to release new guidelines on Thursday for Americans who have been fully vaccinated that say it’s OK for them to gather in small groups indoors with other people who have also been fully vaccinated, without wearing masks.

If Marshall or Jenner ran their now famous experiments today, they would likely be written off as curiosities.

The continued failure to trial or use ITPP in critical care is an indictment against the regulatory and productive institutions of our supposedly-advanced (increasingly just shorthand for 'gridlocked') economy. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myo-inosi… It makes blood transport oxygen better.

By the way I wrote that wiki article too. No one else was doing it. Someone had to stand up.

@patrickc @balajis If you want a real impact in reducing ICU deaths, look into ITPP, while doing cyproheptadine and fluvoxamine. Yes I know I am terrible with DMs. Yes I know I am handicapped by pseudonymity. I will never use WhatsApp. Just do it. My issues are irrelevant.
