keepit ★★★★☆ (1381)	There might be another way to think about the covid battle. The antibodies in some of the recovered patients have been low. This could mean that these people didn't mount enough of an immune response to actually do damage to the lungs (lungs get damaged in the crossfire between the covid and antibodies). It's sort of like being hurt by friendly fire. When the lungs get damaged pneumonia can follow. Older people don't do as well with pneumonia as younger people. Older people don't do as well with covid as younger people. The hydroxychloroquine might be effective under this thought. The hydroxy is used in autoimmune disease ((lupus,rheumatoid arthritis, etc) because it retards the immune system response and therefore doesn't let the body harm itself. Therefore the limited immune response is enough to slow down covid but not fierce enough to damage the lungs. Don't count on this theory, i'm just an amateur. Edited on 09-04-2020 01:01

keepit ★★★★☆ (1381)	I guess i should have elaborated. Substitute immune system and cytokines for antibodies. I used the word antibody as a metaphor for the immune response. I guess i shouldn't do that sort of thing since you have trouble deciphering metaphors. Edited on 09-04-2020 03:24

He's dropped the bat and he's walking away. Mumbled something about RQAA and there he goes, back into the dugout.

HarveyH55 ★★★★☆ (1946)	Once the doctor shoves a tube down your throat, and hooks you up to a ventilator, your fate is basically a coin toss, at best. A respiratory infection makes it a whole lot worse.
