why was she not given hydroxy chloroquin early on with the Azythromax antibiotics to kill this ???

Stuborness onthe part of medical providers to try to save someone using this is mind blowingto me when so many have been treated with this and cured.... Not all, BUT VAST MAJORITY. Here is an example of medical malfeasance...

28 Year Old - Lungs are Wrecked

This is sad. Here's a 28-year-old girl, fit, with no pre-existing conditions, and after a five week bout with Covid-19, her lungs are wrecked. Why do I say wrecked? Well, she says there is damage, but beyond that she's stated that her pulmonary artery was "extremely dilated." Why's it dilated? It's because on the other side of that artery, the interstitial space of all the alveoli sacs in the lungs has been destroyed. The heart, consequently, is pushing really hard to get blood out there but the pipes are blocked. The alveoli can't expand. They're bags that need to fill out into empty space but are instead restricted by scarring. Oxygen can't be absorbed and this chick is lucky to be alive. She doesn't know it, but her lungs will never be the same. It sounds like her heart may be a more immediate concern.

This, by the way, is what they call a mild case.

Admitted to Hospital-Week 5 (28F USA)
Tested Positive - Me
Hi all,

I am a 28 year old female from the USA. No pre-existing health conditions, in shape, eat healthy, good BMI etc.

I was diagnosed COVID-Positive on the 23rd of March. Tomorrow it will be an entire month. This is my 4th and perhaps worst wave of symptoms.

After struggling on and off for weeks at home, I was admitted to the hospital. I was vomiting uncontrollably, running a 95.9-96.0 degree temp (TOO low), struggling to breathe on my own and had severe sweats and violent chills. Turns out my pulse oxygen was very low which they helped with right away. They also ran another slew of tests.

After my chest X-ray, EKG and CT of chest—the doctors came in to let me know that my pulmonary artery was extremely dilated (the doc said he usually sees this in people in their 70s and 80s). They are unsure if the damage to my lungs from COVID has affected my heart and arteries. They did notice that my lung function was back to normal but some abnormal spots on my lungs perhaps left behind by COVID.

I was also retested via nasal swab to see if there were still traces of Covid in my system after a month of continuous symptoms. Waiting on all of the results now and I am very nervous and concerned. Has anyone had anything that has gone on this long? Anyone dealing with potential heart damage?

Thanks for reading. Be well.
