    Thanks for the update. It would be nice if everybody could get the kind of treatment that Trump has received, that is still going to be some way off for most people. Leaving the hospital was definitely a political move. Trump is already claiming that SARS-CoV-2 is no big deal, which is a pity.

      @@globalaide49 - trump totally mishandled the pandemic and made it worse with his bad decisions. Calling him out for that is not political. If they started on about all his other bad decisions that weren't to do with pandemic matters then that would be political or bringing democrat/republican parties into it. You Trump cultists have lost the ability to think clearly and logically. The twiv peeps may well be republican voters for all you know or may not even vote or maybe floating voters. But according to you trump cultists, no criticism at all for any of Trump's actions must ever be uttered cos then "you're being political". Your president is not a god, no president is a god. It isn't political to critique the man in charge, it's every citizen's duty to do that, whatever political party you bat for. They critiqued his pandemic actions/inactions like every country's citizens have critiqued their leaders' mis-handling of the pandemic. Your attitude to trump is just weird. And unhealthy.

      @personzorz 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      indeed, but they needed to give an unstable later metabolite that the vitamin D that you eat as supplements gets metabolized to in your body. A big dose of vitamin D3 would not produce enough of the active metabolite fast enough.

    Great commentary based upon known facts unlike the media who really need a lesson in calm fact based approach. Thanks again for the fantastic update
    I also want to add that I am absolutely hoping/rooting for the effective treatment of a susceptible 74 year old man. Putting aside who it is, it sounds like the president is getting the most up to date and efficacy treatment available. The success, although to early to tell and only a single individual who has all the best care at his disposal, would provide much needed hope for the vulnerable. I know this type of care isn’t available to everyone however if it can be proven to work then that’s a win against the virus.
