Peter Lederman in Second Bout With COVID-19


I saw on Facebook late last night that Mike Fremer told one of his Audio Friends that he heard from Peter Lederman of Soundsmith that he is suffering his second round with COVID.  Peter said he has blood clots on his lungs. That is all the post said.  Here is hoping that Peter pulls through with a full recovery.

Lastest success for the American
drug Leronlimab under test in the fight against Covid in the Philippines..My very best to you Peter... Tom

Watch "Doctor: Safety record of Leronlimab now being used against COVID-19 'astounding' | ANC" on YouTube

I'm coming out of my cone of silence to say that I somehow made it through that video.  It adds nothing to any evidence that Leronlimab does anything in the severe cytokine storm phase of COVID.  It's a pure anecdote, and as the narrators of the story admit, neither was directly involved in the care of the anecdotal case of Mr Estrada.  So we and they don't know what else was done for the patient that might have effected his favorable outcome, besides also kismet.  I fervently hope that Leronlimab is a good drug in severe COVID, but the proper studies need to be done, or if such a study has been done, it needs to be formally reported in a reputable peer-reviewed journal (not Youtube) before one can draw any conclusion.  Note that one comment on the video states that even the Philippines FDA has not authorized the drug even for emergency use.
Also has been used in the US..people need to ask more questions instead of big drug companies influencing the FDA.
Several American doctors have  come out in favor of this drug for covid use..including Dr. Bruce K Patterson who has over 138 research papers many related to Covid Hiv and Cancer. One doc stated that over 100,000 Covid patients could have been saved with the use of this very safe drug if it was eneacted over a year ago.
This drug disrupts the CCR5 receptor which squelches the cytokine storm. People need to know..Tom
