      For remdesivir: on 5 day treatment. May need to stay at Walter Reed for full course. But constantly reconsidered.

      Why was he transferred to Walter Reed? “Because he’s president of the United States”

      MY TAKEAWAYS: The timeline is off. 72 hours since his diagnosis? He was clearly on oxygen at some point. I mean, come on. This is important. No answer on steroids (it was asked). That would be very very revealing. We don't know his last negative test. We need to know.

      We're told he has daily ultrasounds. Not clear why that would be the case. Would rather know the results of a CXR or CT scan. Loads more questions than answers quite frankly.

      How could he be on steroids and not oxygen? If he’s not on steroids why not say so? If we’re 72 hours in, how could he be at an indoor fundraiser on Thursday? How can they hold a presser and confuse people this much? 🙄

          Its another lie, it's a sympathy ploy, he wants everyone to believe hes going to be cured and come out walking like a new manbaby. It's just another lie, he the fool, believes we the people are the fools. Don't fall for his lies.

          Ok i get the steroids dexamethosone has had many promising results if you read the UK studies but yes he would be on oxygen.

          The doctor misspoke about the timeline. He tested positive right after midnight or 1am on TH morning.

          Also from a large number of hospitalized covid cases I’ve seen I can’t say it makes a whole lot of sense to require oxygen this early in the course and so transiently. Usually progresses before it gets better. Who knows what the truth is
