An emergency room physician in New Orleans shares an account of his experience with this dreaded pathogenic virus. He writes: “You can literally watch it happen in a matter of hours.” Some 70-90% of hospitalized patients who have to be placed on a ventilator die. As I read through this doctor’s account of how he goes about making a quick assessment of the severity of the patient’s lung disease, all of its common signs and symptoms I quickly realized are signs of zinc deficiency. A chart provided below makes the comparison. All 18 coronavirus symptoms and signs point to zinc deficiency.
Zinc inhibits coronavirus RNA polymerase enzyme activity, the very methodology by which coronavirus infection is confirmed in the laboratory.
The published medical literature indicates zinc supplementation “seems beneficial” for diarrhea, tuberculosis (a lung infection), acute lower respiratory tract infection.
