Leftists agree with you. He’s increased his chance of dying sevenfold.


At this point, do leftists actually prefer him just dying over the humiliation of a hefty loss in November?

- he dies

He’s on a steroid high lol

Have any of you taken steroids for anything or seen people that have?

Just wait until he comes down


There are also quite a few people whose condition improves over a few days before deteriorating. If I were Trump I'd stay humble until a week has passed.

Yeah, right, because humility and patience are totally Trump's strong suits. :lol:

But it's a good point, he should have waited a bit longer just to be sure. If his condition deteriorates again, the optics of him being admitted to Walter Reed hospital again will just be atrocious. And this, in turn, means that he and his advisors will wait until it's almost too late, should this situation occur. :rolleyes:

Remdesivir strongly decreases this from happening as long as given early in disease course. He should be fine

as the economy dips and dives he's the type of potus to tweet about a 2 day soft run up on the market. theres no chance he'll be able to avoid acting recovered even if he has been told he'll dip back down.

IF he dips back down he will start to require oxygen that he won’t be able to hide. To give a little context it sounds like the most oxygen he required was 2L worth which is given via a small nasal cannula. When people decompensate at 7 day mark that’s the population that requires hospitalization because they start to require 50-60L of oxygen, or intubation, which can only be delivered with certain devices. Early Remdesivir drastically decreases odds of decompensation, so statistically he should be fine from here on out.

What are the side effects of Remdesivir? If it reduces the odds of a bad course of the disease so drastically, why doesnt every covid patient (say above a certain age threshold) take it?
