Many people have said that cytokine storms are sudden, but according to our daily observations from critical medical experts, cytokine storms are not sudden. It is likely to be induced by hypoxia. The same thing is that many people seem to have mild symptoms, shortness of breath, and respiratory distress are not obvious, but in fact, the oxygenation index has decreased significantly, and CT indicates multiple lung fields.

So oxygen therapy is very important in the treatment of new coronary pneumonia. Whether it is oxygen inhalation, high-flow oxygen therapy, non-invasive ventilation, or tracheal intubation, it is necessary to ensure that the patient's oxygen is sufficient. If a patient's oxygen supply can be guaranteed in the early stage, his chance of sudden development of severe illness will be a little smaller. At present, the Eighth People's Hospital of Guangzhou City has a pressurized central oxygen supply and the protection is adequate.

Not trying to argue, thinking it thru and sharing what I found. I have seen several reports where patients, provided with oxygen early on were able to recover. Seattle case in particular.

You are taking out of context the difference between oxygen pulled out of the atmosphere via an enriched or a concentrator... as was the earlier posts in this thread for home use.. At most you get 25-28% oxygen.. This would provide no benefit. Pure oxygen at 100% is not a benign drug.. It causes damage to the lungs..

What I am trying to say is with Coronavirus.. you can give antibiotics, oxygen, ventilation and you can’t stop the advancement of the virus..

Edited.. to say it in the Hospital seething yes 02 is an important part in the Hospital setting..

Prehospital with an enriched or concentrator would not impact the onset of the virus.
 
San Francisco flight, along with seven others, detained at Heathrow over coronavirus fears

Posted: Feb 14, 2020 / 06:41 AM PST / Updated: Feb 14, 2020 / 06:41 AM PST
LONDON (DAILYMAIL) – Heathrow Airport was gripped by coronavirus fears this morning when up to eight planes were put on lockdown after passengers on board complained of symptoms of the deadly virus.

Travellers on the United Airlines Flight 901 from San Francisco were told by the captain to stay in their seats after landing because someone might have the contagious infection, now named SARS-CoV-2.

Andy West, from Henley-on-Thames, told MailOnline passengers were warned by the plane’s captain that they could be on the tarmac for a while because ‘seven other planes’ also had suspected cases.

He revealed staff on the flight took a passenger to the back of the plane without wearing any protective gear or face masks and waited for health officials to come. Everyone was eventually allowed to disembark half-an-hour later.

The cautious hold-up illustrates the increasing disruption the virus is causing for travellers around the world, even where the risk of genuine infections is considerably lower than it is in the Far East.

Public Health England and Heathrow officials have so far refused to release any information about this morning’s incident, which may have affected hundreds of travellers.

But United Airlines, a US company, confirmed someone had ‘become unwell’ on board on the San Francisco flight.

So we do not have an effective anti-viral medication, but if body is supported, it can beat the virus with its own antibodies?
