The hospital says, in that combination, he will be contageous for up to 3 weeks, so they plan to keep him in the Covid area of the hospital for at least 21 days, then possibly move him to another area of the hospital to finish recovery.
They just texted back and said they are now going to put him on a ventilator.
I would say something, but my input would be ignored. I would only come across as being a conspiracy theorist, and they would just go ahead with the program anyway, despite what WE all know will be the final result.
Winter is starting early this year.
My guess would be that he has pneumonia. Period.
Can you sneak in there and see if his horse wants some Ivermectin?
If I sent him pill form Ivermectin in the original package, he would likely turn it in to the nurses and get the doctor's approval before taking it.
There would be no note or explanation that would get him to take it without a doctor's approval.
Unfortunately, that whole family will drink the Kool-Aid if the hospital said to.
Sorry to hear that, fren. I guess your cousin has chosen his hill to die on. It's his decision, so there's precious little you can do at this point. Prayers your way.
say your goodbyes.
While it would be better if he was proactive, if he is not given medication to destroy his kidney and liver functions, the ventilator alone is not fatal. Just keep an eye out for collapsed lung and have him stand or sit up as soon as possible.
This is not true at all. Ventilators often cause massive damage to the lungs due to the air pressure collapsing the alveoli and causing scar tissue formation so that transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide can no longer happen in portions of the lungs. 80% of those who go on ventilators die without ever coming off the ventilator, and those who do survive almost always have some level of permanent lung damage.
You could sneak some horse paste in when you visit and rub it on his gums when nobody is in the room and he's asleep. Of course if he squeals on you then you could find yourself arrested for assault (or murder if he ends up dying).
Unfortunately, best choice is to let him suffer the consequences of his own decisions.
I second this, I think your horse needs deworning also, just a bit tho at a time! But I'm no Dr, just a guy with some horses.
