Let me give you some idea of what I'm dealing with during a recent phone call . . .
"Your Covid 19 test is positive."
"Yeah, I know. I did a rapid yesterday and it was positive."
"Did they explain the recommendations?
"Yeah."
"How are you feelin?"
"Well, I'm in some distress." He actually used the word "distressed." "My oxygen level is going down to 85."
"You need to go to the ER."
"Well, it's not staying at 85. Sometimes it's 88."
"You just told me you were in 'distress.' You need to go to the ER. You could have a pneumonia. The Covid could be getting worse. You probably need to be admitted."
"Oh, I already got pneumonia. They confirmed it. And flu A."
" You've got Covid, pneumonia, and flu A?"
"Yeah."
"You definitely need to go to the ER."
"I'm going to ______________ to try to get some hydroxychloroquine."
Where do you think patients are getting this idea to take hydroxychloroquine for Covid 19 from? And I've already posted the links reporting increased cases of poisoning from bleach ingestion seen at ERs and Poison Control center calls as a result of Trump's irresponsible statements.
