Looks like menta was right about vitamin C all along. I look forward to the apology from the vaccine fanatics on this forum including @MemeFx

"COVID patient with sepsis makes 'remarkable' recovery following megadose of vitamin C"

"A young Australian man who was critically ill with COVID-19 and suffering early stages of sepsismade a remarkable recovery after being given massive doses of vitamin C, according to his doctors.
The man was given an initial dose of 30 grams of sodium ascorbate (vitamin C) over 30 minutes, then a maintenance dose of 30 grams over six and a half hours.
"This is the equivalent of 5,000 oranges pumping through his veins," Professor Bellomo said.
An over-the-counter vitamin C supplement is 500mg, meaning this megadose was 60 times the normal dosage, and had to be administered under hospital conditions.
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body's response to an infection damages its own organs and tissues.

In a matter of days, Mick O'Dowd went from being a healthy, sport-loving father to a quadruple amputee. This is his extraordinary story and his warning to others how a simple sore throat or even a mosquito bite can turn deadly.

Organs start to fail and the patient goes into septic shock.
It's the most common cause of death in intensive care units, and a common cause of death for people gravely ill with COVID-19.
Often patients need to have limbs amputated to survive.
Professor Rinaldo Bellomo, director of Intensive Care at Melbourne's Austin Health, said the 40-year-old's health had started to deteriorate significantly from COVID-19, with the man losing kidney function, and his blood pressure plummeting.
Sepsis — a life-threatening condition which occurs when the body damages its own organs while responding to an infection— was starting to take hold of his body and time was running out.
"We were dealing with somebody who was very unwell. We felt we were in a very difficult situation, and the patient's life was under serious threat," he said.
Professor Bellomo knew researchers at the Florey Institute had some promising experimental findings using megadose vitamin C to treat sepsis.
For the latest news on the COVID-19 pandemic read our coronavirus live blog.
With the family’s consent, doctors gave the patient the same treatment the Florey researchers had trialled in animals.
Professor Bellomo said after the patient had the megadose of vitamin C, the changes were "'remarkable".
"In a short period of time, we saw improved regulation of blood pressure, arterial blood oxygen levels and kidney function," he said.
His temperature also improved.
"The patient was able to be taken off machine ventilation 12 days after starting sodium ascorbate treatment and discharged from hospital without any complications 22 days later," he said.
The Florey Institute's Professor Clive May had collaborated with Professor Bellomo for many years, keeping him up to date with the promising results they were seeing in the lab with the sepsis treatment.
"He didn't believe us. He said 'this can't be true'," Professor May said.
Colleague Dr Yugeesh Lankadeva sent the intensive care doctor videos of what was happening in the lab.
"When he came and when they saw it, they were all very amazed at how quickly the disease just reversed by doing this treatment."
Professor May has been studying sepsis for almost two decades.
His research, which has just been published in the journal Critical Care Medicine, showed giving megadose vitamin C to animals with sepsis could reverse the effects of the disease.
"I have never seen any treatment before this being able to do that," he said.
"Giving this dose of vitamin C is just totally revolutionary. The response was quite remarkable."
He said the function of the animal's heart, kidneys, liver, lungs and brain began to significantly improve just three hours after getting the megadose of the vitamin.
"If the treatment works as well in patients as it does in our animal studies, I think it's going to totally revolutionise the treatment of septic patients in intensive care units all over the world," Professor May said."
