This was bad news last night. That after 10 days they took Boris Johnson to the hospital “for tests” was not a good sign at all.

Now they’re admitting he’s in intensive care?

If they didn’t start him on HCQ & ZPAC with zinc in the last 10 days, why the hell not?

Now he’s in a very iffy situation. If you hear he’s been intubated next, it’s dire.

Maybe we should wait for the ok by Dr Fugazzi and Dr Scarfette. They need to study some models and setup some randomized clinical trials to study it. Hang in there Boris, maybe by September we can have enough data to say you can get better.

He wouldn’t be in ICU if he wasn’t on a vent.

Not good. Not good at all. The only thing in an ICU that needs to be in an ICU is a vent.

Every day, drop that rate by 10 points. 4 or 5 days on a vent and he is not going to make it.

...and from what I hear you are being generous. Who knows, he could be receiving some kind of therapy that is just too precious for “everyone”, like a few days of ECMO.

“55 years old. I give him 75/25 chance of recovery.”

Not age. Underlying medical conditions.

#1. BMI > 30 with diabetes.

#2. Heart condition

#3. Lung condition

The need to breathe is anecdotal.

“He wouldn’t be in ICU if he wasn’t on a vent.”

Mostly but this is special case.

While writing just reported that moved to ICU so as to have quick access to ventilator if needed.
