Trump’s treatment was successful in killing Covid19. We have a cure for older patients with no serious medical conditions.

The US overall death rate for 2020 is 3 million per year or 8219 per day from all causes.  The Covid19 death rate has averaged over 1900 per day.

Top 9 causes of US deaths from 2/1/20 to 1/31/21 are listed below:

Deaths  Cause

675068 Heart Disease

590518 Cancer

327827 Covid19

156109 Stroke

149384 Respiratory

131471 Alzheimer’s

97793   Diabetes

52867   Pneumonia

39006   Septicemia (blood poisoning)

US Covid19 %Deaths/Cases continue to decline due to increases in testing. This also tracks treatment learning-curve and patient outcome improvement. States with around 3% did the worst job, including New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Connecticut.  Higher %Deaths/Cases also reflects patient pre-existing health issues, population density, public transit, international travel and economic activity.

The increase in new cases is driven by the increase in testing. It is the denominator in the %deaths/cases, so increases in cases lowers the % of deaths/cases.

Deaths have resulted in 3% of the cases and 80% of deaths occur with patients who are age 65 and older.

Developing immunity and eliminating pre-existing conditions should be pursued. Weight loss will help reverse and avoid Diabetes II.  Taking vitamins A, C, D, E, magnesium and zinc will strengthen immunity. Eating smaller meals less often will help with weight loss.

Medicine is a “trial and error” endeavor aimed at improving outcomes. The important work is being done by practicing physicians and their staffs to prevent deaths. 

The 1918-1919 Spanish Flu was a virus that reached 500 million cases requiring treatment and 50 million deaths worldwide. 675,000 deaths were in the US. It affected all age groups and lasted for 2 years.

The 2019-2020 Wuhan Covid19 virus is approaching 117 million cases and 2.6 million deaths worldwide. During the first 6 months of this virus, tests were given to patients with symptoms that required treatment.  99.5% of all cases are mild or asymptomatic.  Increased testing is driving down the cumulative % deaths/cases. 

The value of testing is tracking to avoid spreading the virus.  We are also curious about how asymptomatic carriers avoid becoming ill. Immediate accurate test results and immediate early treatment are necessary.

The US has over 29 million Covid cases and a population of 331 million for a Covid case rate/population of 8.8%.
