WHO Welcomes The Use Of Dexamethasone In Treating Critically COVID-19 Patients by NairalandDoctor(m): 9:25am On Jun 19, 2020 |
The World Health Organization (WHO) welcomes the initial clinical trial results from the United Kingdom (UK) that show dexamethasone, a corticosteroid, can be lifesaving for patients who are critically ill with COVID-19. For patients on ventilators, the treatment was shown to reduce mortality by about one third, and for patients requiring only oxygen, mortality was cut by about one fifth, according to preliminary findings shared with WHO.

China really has a deal with WHO. For the fact that the drug is a Chinese product, WHO will certainly approve it. The conspiracy theory is becoming real. 6 Likes 4 Shares |

good...because its from u.k...its now endorsed bt W .H.O...they have thier reasons sha and i pray this is the main cure that we all havs been waiting for because this high increase of cases dis days is no joke... and the main joke that we were all locked down with fewer cases but now that the cases are increasing each day, people are moving and living asif nothing is happening... doing yesterday media briefing i heard the ptf boss saying Nigeria would not accpet the use of this drugs, mayb its strategy scare off fakes dt may be produced in the markets and to avoid self medication because Nigeria dt i kno would surely use it especially now that W.H.O their god av endorsed it... |

For your information.. have read an article over 2month ago, about some health expert recommending these drugs dexamethasone and tynol to W.H.O, they even advice the organization to fast-track the use of these drugs to reduce death rate (because those expert have carried out their research deligently and carefully). Now from 2month till now do you know how many lives would have been saved if w.h.o truly fast-track the process... I don't know why toying with people's lives is comfortable with these people... When there's a pandemic like this taking lives at high rate.. every ideas and suggestions from expert should be given ultimate attention even though it might not be useful, sluggishness and reluctancy shouldn't have room..
