Study of Wuhan deaths:
  • The median age: 65.8
  • 72.9% of them were men
  • Most common symptoms noted: fever, shortness of breath, and fatigue
  • Most common comorbidities: high blood pressure, diabetes, and coronary heart disease
  • More than 80% of them had very low eosinophil count on admission
  • Complications: respiratory failure, shock, acute respiratory distress syndrome, cardiac arrhythmia
  • Disease management: antibiotics, antivirals, and glucocorticoids. Some were given intravenous immunoglobulin or interferon-alpha-2b
  • Esinopenia indicated a poor prognosis
  • Early-onset of shortness of breath can be used as an observational symptom of COVID-19
  • The combination of antiviral and antibiotics failed to help these patients
  • Majority of them died from multiple organ failure

Their white blood cell eosinophil count was very low...those people should probably get a transfusion regardless of whether it is from someone with immunity or not...organ failure is probably due to secondary infections, sepsis or Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation

Interesting about eosinophils..... up to a couple of decades ago it was primarily thought of as only dealing with parasites defense for the body, but recent research has focused that those white blood cells also allow the body to discern new viruses and bacteria infections ....

The fact that those cells have been correlated to parasitic infections, and that quinolines boost parasitic resistance, could mean there is a relationship in how quinolines are potentially being effective against Covid

No idea what that means, but it sounds fascinating.
