WHat?
Thats kinda low. Your lungs are struggling due to inflammation. I dont know protocol, but Prednisone will help tone down the inflammation. Should be ADMINISTERED ASAP.

Get well soon, Pundit. Are you able to describe your surroundings? They say all ICUs are full.

Yes Oxygen is good but you need to take care of the inflammation. You have what we call an inflammation storm and your lungs are barely functioning at capacity. Slowing the storm will give lungs a chance to heal

Insurance is a headache. Hopefully this will be sorted out soon for you. You can ask your insurance if you can pay out of pocket and be reimbursed by them for it. That is if the hospital wont take your insurance plan. I think most insurance companies do offer this if you are travelling internationally.

RVP, I know it must be terrifying but it's gonna be ok.

Ask for tamiflu - it does wonders for pneumonia.

Try breathing slow long breaths which should improve oxygen levels. It's normal to dip below 90 with pneumonia.

Just don't google about Covid & oxygen levels below 90 because that's actually rubbish.

Ensure there's a humidifer in the room or just breathe in some steam once an hour to help with breathing.

Most of all you just need to relax and let your lungs recover. Don't think about the pneumonia, long deep breathes, eat even if you're not hungry- brasil nuts in partcular. Anything with selenium can help repair damaged tissue quicker.

Relax, sleep, eat, think of this as a forced holiday.
