Yeeh IV Vitamin C should be in full use by now
Drugs kill more people in US than Gun violence
It`s so good business for pharma companys they dont want to kill it...
I'd like to see President Trump use his Executive Power to immediately initiate formal, government funded controlled studies on high dose IV Vitamin C and other suppressed therapies, run by unbiased professionals who have no financial interest whatsoever in the outcomes.
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a type of lung infection that occurs in people who are on mechanical ventilation breathing machines in hospitals. As such, VAP typically affects critically ill persons that are in an intensive care unit (ICU).[1] VAP is a major source of increased illness and death. Persons with VAP have increased lengths of ICU hospitalization and have up to a 20–30% death rate.
A different less studied infection found in mechanically ventilated people is ventilator-associated tracheobronchitis (VAT).[4] As with VAP, tracheobronchial infection can colonise the trachea and travel to the bronchi. VAT may be a risk factor for VAP.

The president could also declare our "right to try" any medication -- experimental or otherwise unproven -- that has shown promise in fighting the disease. And in that sense, IV Vitamin C would probably be the safest and the least expensive. Not to mention the most promising.
If it were me, I would take the IV Vitamin C in a heartbeat... before anything else.
Right-to-try law
This could also explain Chinas dramatically lowering numbers...

We should automatically believe a drug is causing lots of death because a journalists said it might be?
people with big money have been doing IV C for years...just not for us regular folk.
