Promising Steroid Treatment for Serious Cases of COVID-19
CBSN Los Angeles interviewed Dr. Steven O’Day, M.D., Executive Director of the Saint John’s Cancer Institute and Cancer Clinic, and Director of Providence Los Angeles Regional Research, about the promising new study out of Britain which has shown steroids can help the sickest COVID-19 patients. Dexamethasone, a cheap and readily available steroid has prevented more than a third of the sickest patients from dying. Watch the interview to learn about this game changing discovery and why Dr. O’Day recommends it should be used appropriately, as it could be dangerous for patients with early-stage infections and milder symptoms.
