Thankyou for this article. I well recall a wonderful presentation of the success of Covid-19 early treatment in Honduras which included using high flow oxygen rather than ventilators. They started out as one of the hardest hit countries in the world, with extremely limited critical care physicians and almost no ICU facilities. The interviewer kept asking and asking, how did you pull it off to engage the entire country: As a I recall, Top justice of Supreme court, wife of the President and others in the cabinet were successfully treated leading to the government to get behind it. There were outsiders involved with their work, one may have been Peter McCullough. This was done in 2020.

I dragged my wife down to see this miracle. It made no impression. I have been following this for years and she went ahead and got 4 shots. So far I think she is OK, but I am worried that there will be serious adverse events. I also dragged her to watch the success story in Imperial Valley in CA - on border with Mexico and Arizona and at the time 7,000 Covid patients and none to the hospital. Now they are up to 20,000 and with early treatment, as I recall, none had long Covid.

What has been forgotten or perhaps never learned is that the practice of medicine is an art that uses science it is not straight forward like auto repair. In fine arts we are quite aware that everyone given the same box of art supplies and tools will not produce the same quality finished work. The skill of those holding the tools determines the outcome and no policy can change human ability.
