Dexamethasone reduces mortality, but only in hospitalized patients on supplemental oxygen. According to a study released in June, combined Covid 19 treatments reduce mortality by 2.5%.
The best treatment is prevention with the vaccine which also reduces morbidity and mortality. But, there is significant vaccine hesitancy impeding our progress to shut this down and avoid steps like lock downs.
The vast majority of new cases are in the unvaccinated. I'm probably testing about 100 patients/week. I've only had 3 fully vaccinated people test positive.
The vast majority of people getting tested are symptomatic and unvaccinated. I think it was one day last week I had 8 positives out of 11 and one was admitted due to kidney failure due to Covid. Many people get tested due to exposure because they can't just quarantine at home for 14 days or isolate for a minimum of 10 days without a doctor's note to miss work or school. And I'm doing more referrals for monoclonal antibody infusions for high risk patients than ever before. You can't get the referral if you don't test positive. And that is the only treatment for outpatients that may reduce risk of severe Covid.
You made claims of fraud without evidence. And anyone can turn in claims of fraud to the government at any time based only upon suspicion and the government will investigate and the whistleblower can receive large rewards. Yet, despite all this widespread fraud, I'm not seeing hospitals being prosecuted for widespread Covid fraud.
Finally, something we can largely agree upon. But, this surge is largely fueled by the unvaccinated (> 90%). And if you don't get vaccinated then it doesn't have any affect.
I don't want to even comment on this because it is a barrier to getting people to believe the information the medical community is providing and we already have enough of those.
What do you think about this?
"95% of the severe patients are vaccinated".
"85-90% of the hospitalizations are in Fully vaccinated people."
"We are opening more and more COVID wards."
"The effectiveness of the vaccine is waning/fading out"
