He had 4 hospitalizations as of last week. Previously he bragged about none.
We have no idea how severe the symptoms are of the people he’s treating to know if it’s working. It’s also not a long time since he started his treatments.
Im not saying that he's right for doing this, he's absolutely not IMHO, but if I may say דער שטות איז אים געלונגען.

Sometimes one can do a stupid thing, and that stupid thing turns out to help him.
Same happened here. So far.

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

He spoke very emotionally on a teleconference tonight and urged everyone to pour their hearts out in tefila. "YOUR TEFILOS WILL SAVE LIVES AND PREVENT SUFFERING".

I know he's a nut job.

Is this documented? How?

Legitimately documented? Or documented by someone that throws out 60% and 90% and all sorts of random numbers without any thought?

Here’s some (hopefully not temporary) good news: the number of new deaths in the US as a whole and ICU admissions and deaths in New York in particular plummeted today. Is this finally the result of social distancing or just a one off like we’ve seen occasionally in Italy?

Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.

Our community may have done most of our passing it along on Purim or thereabouts.  So the first wave became ill by Rosh chodesh.  And the complications followed. So maybe, hopefully, we'll see a drop in new cases.

All known organizations in KJ including Hatzolah came out against him for his completely inaccurate videos.

Israel so far:
Total cases 3,460

12 Niftar=0.35% death rate

123 moderate (73) or severe (50)=3.5%

this is one of the best in the world BH. What are they doing differnt? We are still davening with Minyanim fyi.

Total Cases:
4,347 (+25% in 48 hours used to be doubling every 3 days)

15 Niftar=.35% (No change in fatality rate)

176 Moderate to Severe (4.1% a .6% rise from 2 days ago)

BH it looks like quarantine is working for most of the population.

That's basically no change. A 25% increase each day will be a 95% increase in 3 days
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

25% in 2 days...not one day.

This + I know a few hospitalized. Not sure they're his patients though.

With the amount of people in the hospital, intubated r”l etc, nothing is definitive. Hashem yerachem.

My daughter has her first patient who was fevering for 12 days, O2 sat of 87 and took the HCY+Zpack cocktail finally without fever today BH. 5 days after taking cocktail.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.
