I ***may*** have a patient (hypothetically of course so I do not violate confidentially)

This patient ***may*** have been very ill and close to death with something that hypothetically has been in the news a lot — lets call it the plague

I ***may*** have administered hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin

Patient ***may*** have had an impressive turn around as measured by hypothetical arterial blood gasses in 12 hours.

Patient ***may*** have been on the ventilator for three days and hypothetically could have been extubated and could be fine

Patient ***may*** be elderly and with multiple medical problems

Perhaps Dr. Fauci should get to bedside and treat some patients before opining.

Doctor ***may*** be my hero.

Thank you for a (hypothetical) response to a question posted to you earlier.

Keep up the (hypothetical) good work.

No, I am not being sarcastic. I am being envious. The doctors in my insurance system still decline to prescribe hydroxychoroloquine and Z-pack for COVID-19. That course of treatment is not yet approved on their formularies and they would presumably be fired if they prescribed it. Unless that was a hypothetical prescription.

Medical decisions should not be made by insurance clerks.

Excellent.. good on you.
