And so I asked Anthony Fauci, I said, do you think there's a chance as they're getting very, very sick and their lungs are filling up with fluid that we could try high dose IV steroids like we do in other infections?

He said, oh, no, no, we've tried that.

Turns out, and we mentioned this in the book, the best treatment when you are just about to go on the ventilator or on the ventilator when you have a 50 percent chance of dying at that point was IV steroids, an old generic medicine that a big pharma doesn't make much money off of.

Which steroids in particular?

It's called solumedrol, but it's just IV steroids.

And it was a 36% reduction in death, which is pretty significant when you're in the ICU.

The people in the ICU were very, very sick.

It was a third of them had a reduction in death by taking IV steroids.

But he was dismissing it from the very beginning and already acting like, oh, I know it's not going to work.

And we're going to try remdesivir, which turned out not to work very well.

Not only that, it gives people kidney failure.

Yeah, no, it was really sad.

And the other thing about natural immunity that needed to be brought up is, so all the people that were declared essential kept working.

Like if you worked in a meat processing factory, these are hardworking people.

Many of them, you know, they're busting their butt all day long.

And there'd be like 296 people at a meatpacking place in Missouri.

All of them got COVID.

Most of them survived.

But what we should have been telling them is two weeks after you got it, come back to work.

You don't have to wear a mask now.
