A chat on WhatsApp to defeat Covid-19 even from home. This is how Dr. Andrea Mangiagalli, General Practitioner at the Local Health Authority of Milan. With the Doctor Laura Frosali has created a chat where more and more doctors have gradually joined, in order to develop an approach to therapy to defeat the virus all together. An effective method, according to Dr. Mangiagalli, and even more decisive for the care of patients.
“I treated an 80 year old patient with a serious history – says Dr. Mangiagalli – the relatives asked me not to admit her and I took charge of it. Today she is well and is, in fact, healed “. This is just one of the many stories that the Doctor has seen unfolding in front of him: home therapy works, he says, and that is why he finds it inadmissible that bodies and institutions do not want to look at these data and correct the course of the various treatments. against the virus preferring, instead, hospitalizations that generate chaos within health facilities.
At “A special day” Fabio Duranti and Francesco Vergovich asked Dr. Mangiagalli many questions: what does this therapy consist of? Why is it so effective? His answers in this interview.
THEY TELL YOU THAT THERE IS NO CURE: FALSE! ▷ “Look, with basic medicine no Covid deaths”
“Of the patients we treated at home with the therapy scheme, none died. The shocking thing is that all doctors, throughout Italy and with different experiences, who have treated all patients with this scheme have seen the same thing: a very low hospitalization rate in patients so followed that reached 5% in the worst cases. and zero mortality. And we are talking about over 1500 patients, maybe more. But nobody wanted to look at this data.
It is a fact that will remain hidden and it is surprising that Aifa and the Ministry of Health do not want to see. If we have had zero mortality and 5% hospitalizations, they must tell us what happened differently in the patients who were hospitalized, who fared worse. This is the real question to ask.
This is a disease that must be treated early and at home but not by telling the patient to take a few tachipirina tablets and see how it goes. It could have a detrimental effect if generously prescribed. But the most dangerous thing about taking tachipirina is that it masquerades as a feverish phenomenon which, in fact, has always been a defense mechanism. With normal flu, a healthy adult up to 38 years old can tolerate it safely. Quenching the fever means reducing the innate responses of our immunity and favoring the continuation of the disease.
Covid is a disease that has an intrinsic danger in a very rapid phase. Patients often worsen on the seventh, eighth day, not the fifteenth. So the patient who begins to have fever and after two or three days maintains a relevant fever picture in association with other symptoms it becomes important to decide to treat him immediately and this is what we did.
The problem is that we have been told from the beginning that there is no cure for this disease: give the Tachipirina and wait for the patient to breathe badly, this was the first message. This stopped general practitioners from making any decisions. I can understand that many colleagues have not taken initiatives. You hear every day from infectious disease specialists, opinion leaders, from Aifa, that there is no cure, one at some point thinks he has to agree with a regulatory body and therefore adapts to mainstream thinking.
I treated an 80-year-old patient with Parkinson’s and diabetes, a patient I should have admitted to. The family members have specifically asked me not to admit her to hospital. I took it upon myself to take a high-risk patient to treat from home. I ordered oxygen (arrived immediately) and started therapy. He did all the therapy, including cortisone. Today the lady, on the thirteenth day, almost stopped taking the support liquid oxygen. The 80-year-old patient, frail at very high risk, was treated at home and is effectively cured. The approach to the individual patient must include the patient’s entire clinical history, perhaps this is what was missing in the hospital ”.
