To people who think "but he gets the best care", if you go down the toilet there's not much doctors can do for a respiratory virus besides just manage symptoms. We know how to do that better than we did in March so we've seen the death rate cut in half, but there's nothing doctors can do for the president that they can't also do for a member of the public. There's no "extra care" you can buy if you're on a ventilator.
this is just plain wrong, and heres the proof for just a random corticosteroid (can be bought and used if you are on a ventilator). and theres been studies after that one that showed that different steroids have a different %. all in all what you said is false, if a person A cant afford shit, and person B can afford even some steroid, person B has extra care he or she can buy, and corticosteroids work especially well on ventilated patients. you can see here for p < 0.001
