How can we put all these things together and understand that the lower mortality rate? "
"That's all the above," answered Fuci. "First of all, as we have learned with all new diseases and we have been disputed, HIV to other types of diseases, we are just improving to treat people, more experienced, you know, what is that works, you know, what does not work, including fundamental non-pharmacological approaches. You know, than to put people on the fans or not, to make oxygen is much more widespread than intubation . These are the types of things we learned. "
"Number two", "he continued," we have treatments. We now know that dexamethasone clearly decreases the mortality rate in people requiring mechanical ventilation and high flow oxygen. We have codesivir for patients. hospitalized who have pulsed involvement. And also reset to see a younger population is infected. "
"In fact," he continued ", if you look at the age of infected people now, compared to people who have been infected in the spring, there is almost a difference of decade to be younger. Now, mainly Because college children come back to school, they are more infected. In the end, they will be limited to allocating people from the community, but they are those who lead in a way the infection. So, C. 'is age, experience and better medicines. "
