Relative in hospital with covid pneumonia. Last day of remdesevir use tomorrow and then only dealing with inflammation. High flow O2 70% environment decreased to 40% environment. Has anyone dealt with this before? Please any advice is helpful. This seems like a good sign but would like to know about similar experiences thank you.

Yes, there were comorbidities.
The hospital staff weren't happy with he choosing to not get on the vent.
Him doing well after making this decision shows that the vent wasn't necessary for him to start improving.
Yes!! Amen!
I was in constant prayer during those days.
Good luck to them....I hope it helps. Definitely keep up the prayers.
My brother was on 100% initially and then daily it was reduced down until he reached the 40% number.
I think that once he refused the vent, the hospital didn't have an incentive to keep him there (at least in ICU) and they said he was improving and discharged him.
Imagine if he had agreed to go on the vent? Whatever your friend does, don't back down on going on the vent and the BBQ sauce should, also help!
