Thai doctors successfully treat unvaccinated 105-year-old COVID patient

[webfact]

 

Thai doctors have successfully treated a COVID-19 patient, who is 105-years-old and unvaccinated, with a combination anti-viral medication, long acting antibody (LAAB) and antiseptics. In less than two weeks he was discharged from hospital, according to Dr. Opart Karnkawinpong, director-general of the Disease Control Department.

 

He said that the patient was admitted to hospital on September 3rd with high fever, low blood-oxygen level and a lung inflammation and was given anti-viral medication on the first day.

 

After having considered his advancing years and the fact that he had not been vaccinated, doctors there administered the LAAB treatment and antiseptics to the patient the following day, said Dr. Opart, adding that his condition steadily improved until he was discharged on September 14th.

I read the article but nothing mentioned why he was unvaccinated. 

 

Maybe it was his age. 

 

I doubt he was unvaccinated due to sourcing his medical information from Facebook or similar social media.

And I bet they treated him without the vaccine!

 

But the headline for this article should read:

 

"Unvaccinated 105-year old conquers covid in under two weeks"

Maybe he just doesnt trust vaccinations.

Yes, anti-vaxxer, that's what I was thinking but at his age I reckon he'd have more sense.

He is 105 and still alive. Think anyone on here will achieve that ripe old age? I doubt it, we have had our bodies contaminated with drugs for years.

I think they are referring to Evusheld from AZ which is a sort of passive vaccine which also has a curative effect. It's the best on the market imo but very expensive, so can only be used for people with immune suppression.  Amazing really!

Not many will make it as far as him and at that age you are very susceptible to any sort of virus or disease.

 

A strong guy with a strong mind, that's what got him as far as has come.

Actually at 105 I would say he has proven to have more sense than most ????

LAAB moo is excellent, contains many medicinal herbs.
