Many people have had this virus and stayed home to treat themselves. Hydrate, take lots of vitamins, humid baths, honey, paracetamol, this is what has helped a lot of people.

[quote author=ifykris22 post=87914668]I told you guys dey don't treat migrants without health insurance over seas, especially in cases like this... cry I am not sure whether you are base here in the US but that is a fat lie from you. In the county where I live, we have at least 5 hospitals that are dedicated in treating immigrant patience FREE. There are hundre8 of such hospitals all over the US. Shockingly, some whites and Hispanics and AA without insurance do use these hospitals. I can give you their phones and websites to confirm. Many of them are own by govt/ private /seven days Adventist church and majorly run by volunteer DOCTORS and nurses. There could be hospitals that may insist on insurance but it is not only to immigrants but also to Americans who doesn't have. He's is even a student and should have health insurance and he's probably a citizen since he had his high sch there. Many immigrants have asses to free groceries, fish and meat every two weeks in my neighborhood. Free clothing once every month for families.
It is so unfortunate that doctors in America are so fond of doing what happened to that guy in believing it was bronchitis. It could have happened to a citizen likewise. Is difficult for a treatment or a drug to be administered both to out or in patient until diagnosis is carried unlike in Nigeria. By mere looking at the young man he's probably 2nd degree obese (overweight) and definitely wouldn't survive covid 19. He even had asses to ventilator before he passed out. May God console his family. I am happy with the testimony about his love for God

Whether migrants or citizens anybody without health insurance will not be tested in America, one of the main reason why they are dying there. Most Americans can't afford to pay for health insurance. Life in America is not easy

You can not be an F1 student in America without health insurance. There is no way he doesn't have health insurance.

RIP to him.

If this had happened in Nigeria, some people whose only stock in trade is to blame Buhari for excessive sunshine would have been masturbating over the news because they have bad news to celebrate to.

Which kind of hatred can make someone look forward only to bad news so they can celebrate it? They must be evil personified.

VERY PATHETIC LOTS.
Just like they were blaming gej then.
Can we now move forward

This is very informative. Many Nigerians are now well informed about United States.

No matter what you say, dog wey wan loss no dey hear whistle. Why else would anyone go through the sea and desert from Nigeria?

If Ebola experience in America did not teach us anything, I hope this korokorovirus will.

As for the young doctors that make up their mind to stay home, you will never regret it. Yes, those that never trained in Nigeria and came back have some misgivings, but no place like home.

Please use your voice if you do not have the money to make the rich team up to donate money to new Convalence Centers where more health workers and cleaners can be employed full or part-time. Not a kobo to Government where they can re-loot it.

Most doctors are trained to work long hours. If they have many offers, they can put food on the table for their families.

May the soul of this guy wake up more Africans to think Africa first. There are too many healthcare discrimination in United States. They even discriminate against their own that is sympathetic to the poor. They did against doctors and nurses that even volunteered in Africa for Ebola. They made that nurse in Maine regret her life.

Don't pay attention to those coming here to excuse or normalize inhuman and crude behavior denying their own experience.

This is false. You have to treat everyone regardless of status. I know this because I’m in medicine. There weren’t enough tests so they’re prioritizing people with the highest chance of having severe outcomes

The LOT OF PEOPLE that have had Corona virus and tried it, as well well as multiple doctors and nurses.

Only 15% of Corona virus patients get to go to the hospital, guess what the other 75% are doing...

His size didn't help either, lifestyle could make a difference between life and death this situation.

A poor person is better off sick in Nigeria than in America. In Nigeria, you can use the services of a quack experienced sn experienced chemist that could save your life, but in America, you have to have life insurance which almost beyond the reach of the poor or you die. It is all about corporations, Maintaining the status quo of winner takes all at the expense of the weaklings. It is anti-capitalism to help the poor and that is the core reason why they loathe Obama.
