A COVID-19 patient whose lungs had been severely damaged by the virus has made a miraculous recovery after undergoing a double lung transplant at a Texas hospital.
Paul Rodriguez, 52, of San Antonio, had no pre-existing conditions when he contracted the novel coronavirus and fell ill with pneumonia in July. Rodriguez was hospitalized at an area hospital in his hometown and required intubation as well as the use of a ventilator. Then in mid-September, Rodriguez was transferred to Baylor St.

After being successfully weaned off the ventilator and oxygen support, Rodriguez underwent rehabilitation at Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center and was discharged on Nov. 24. He is expected to continue the rehabilitation program as part of his recovery, according to the press release.Paul Rodriguez is the first double lung transplant that Baylor St.
"Rodriguez is the first double lung transplant the hospital has performed on a coronavirus patient since the pandemic began," Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center said in a statement."To date, only a handful of transplant centers in the U.S. have performed lung transplants on patients due to irreversible lung damage caused by the virus."
I thank Hod for my blessings ✝️. I pray we will have an end to the pandemic.
Watch what the 'Covid frontline heroes: Kathryn, a 28-year-old ICU nurse whose take on the 'How It Started ... How It's Going' meme went viral, talks to CNN's Brooke Baldwin about the toll the coronavirus pandemic has taken on health care workers.

Why is the 2018 death toll higher than the projected 2020 toll with covid? Asking for a friend
The president doesn't care ! That how he rolls ! Votes are all he cares about ! Winning ! People are dying and he wants to win !
One thing no one is discussing: few retail stores have their doors propped open. Thought ventilation was critical to reduce spread of aerosolized virus. 100 ppl in Zara w the doors closed... Seems propping open doors would be easy & obvious way to reduce spread
How many have recovered?
While GovRonDeSantis ties the hands of local governments to protect our communities
How many of those were false positives?

So do the 3 positive PCR tests I took in 3 different cities days apart count as three different people?🤔
Yawn...
Jane Fonda called the COVID-19 pandemic 'God's gift to the Left.' that tells the opportunism of the Democratic Party. Do they care about the 200K+ Americans, or do they consider these unfortunate victims to be props to use in the anti-Trump drama they subject us to day after day?
What is % of false positives
Pretty low mortality rate

Trump instructed his people to stop the testing. I'm guessing he has fired 'his people' or forgot.

Vermont is one of the few states that has been on the low side for the most part. The fact that a lot of Americans say it is a right to be SELFISH is sad! If you won't look out for yourself why would you be expected to look out for others. Our country is a disgrace! maskup
Urging? They’re asking returning school children if they had Thanksgiving with anyone other than their family.

Psalm 2;4-6 The One enthroned in heaven (🇺🇸) laughs; the Lord scoffs at them. He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying, “I have installed my king ( Jesus Christ-Daniel Johnson Llanos) on Zion (🇵🇷), my holy mountain.”(Zech.14;4)
Oh what a surprise!
That’s going to happen
They are too busy packing in malls for Black Friday shopping!
Lawwwwwd.....😐😐
At our news conference next week, we hope to awaken the world to the scientific FACT that the I-Mask+ Prophylaxis and Early At-Home Treatment Protocol is the potential solution to the global pandemic earlytreatment
Quarantine after Thanksgiving dinner! But black Friday shopping? Protesting in the streets? Celebrating Joe Biden’s victory? Looting and burning? No those are safe activities.
You know they won't do it. So far it seems Americans don't grasp the severity of the situation. They seem to think it's all a hoax.

In the future we will not only arrest people who commit crimes but arrest anyone who might commit a crime
And we all know exactly how this is going to go.

Yeah, and all it took was a DOUBLE LUNG TRANSPLANT.
... it's not a 'miraculous recovery'. They did a lung transplant. It's science and it's how you fix organs that don't function
'miraculous recovery after undergoing a double lung transplant' Well it's not very miraculous then is it
you're telling me no one was on the transplant list ahead of this person? kids with cancer? nobody?
Double lung transplant means he'll be on immune-reducing drugs plus a large volume of other drugs for the rest of his shortened life. That's a hell of a miraculous recovery. Quit trying to soften the life-changing impact the virus can inflict.
REPORT: Biden’s Thanksgiving Day Address gets just 1000 views online, a record low. Observers say a candidate with “80,000,000” votes would get many more online viewers. Numbers don’t lie, or add up!
Most welcome precious people
Today’s US death total 269,644 The president is a public servant who is responsible for the safety, security & welfare of the American people. Yet our President by his own admission chose NOT TO DO ANYTHING TO SLOW THE SPREAD across the nation & still continues to do nothing.
Your headline is ridiculous. A double-lung transplant is not a miraculous recovery.
Prayers for all those suffering around the world with COVID19
Makes sense if you have new Lungs 😂🤷♂️
Wow! A double Lung transplant. Post-Covid. Ah! Time to enter a bubble for the next 9 months let's watch and see... Wow! 🙏🏾
Miraculously recovery? He had to a ...DOUBLE LUNG TRANSPLANT!!!!
A double lung transplant isn’t a miraculous recovery.
is it a miracle though? no, it's science.
