Simple, cheap rapid solution to the pandemic – Video
-- Dr. Richard Bartlett -- ACWT Interview 7.2.20

More than 25 million people live in Taiwan, 25 million people practically stacked on top of each other. If they practiced social distancing they’d be out in the ocean floating around. There’s not enough room for them to do social distancing.

But guess how many people have died to date of the pandemic in Taiwan?

Seven! Only seven!

Only seven! (Yes, I confirmed this on worldometers.com. As of today, August 5, the number is only seven.)

Texas physician Dr. Richard Bartlett has had a 100 percent success rate with his patients, many with life-threatening co-morditities, but the media has been ignoring it.

In this video, Dr. Bartlett shares the stories people who he has treated using a steroid called budesonide, inhaled through a nebulizer. Dr. Bartlett has previously referred to his treatment as a “silver bullet” for the coronavirus. Worth watching at least the first 5 minutes.

Budesonide: That’s bu as in blue, des as in dess,  o as in oh, nide as in hide) – Budesonide

Only seven deaths of Covid-19 in Taiwan!

“Same situation in Japan,” says Dr Bartlett. “One hundred and twenty-one million people in Japan, and they’ve had less than a thousand people die during the whole pandemic. In Singapore, only 12 people have died in the entire country during the whole pandemic.”

What is the secret to these low death counts?

People in those countries are using an inhaled steroid called budesomide, says Dr Bartlett, who calls budesomide the “silver bullet.”

“It’s super cheap,” say Dr. Bartlett. “It’s about $200 for the entire treatment if you use cash. Many of my patients who use insurance pay nothing out of pocket.”

Budesonide is an asthma medicine, says Dr Bartlett. It’s a respiratory anti-inflammatory, and Covid-19 is a respiratory inflammation disease.

“And it works,” says Dr Bartlett. “A hundred percent of my (Covid-19) patients are alive.”You use a nebulizer machine.

“People start feeling better after the first treatment,” Bartlett adds.

Note: This was first posted on YouTube more than a month ago. But have you seen any word about this in the mainstream media?

Every person in the entire world should be made aware of this simple, cheap rapid solution to the pandemic. They should know about Dr Bartlett’s “silver bullet.”

Budesonide-Formoterol




https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budesonide%2Fformoterol
Budesonide/formoterol

Budesonide/formoterol, sold under the brand name Symbicort among others, is a combination medication used in the management of asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).[2] It contains budesonide, a steroid and formoterol, a long-acting β2-agonist (LABA).[2] The product monograph does not support its use for sudden worsening or treatment of active bronchospasm.[2] However, a 2020 review of the literature does support such use.[4] It is used by breathing in the medication.[2]

Common side effects include throat pain, influenza, runny nose, and a yeast infection of the mouth.[2] There were concerns that the LABA component increases the risk of death in children with asthma, however these concerns were removed in 2017.[5] Therefore, this combination is only recommended in those who are not controlled on an inhaled steroid alone.[2] There is tentative evidence that typical doses of inhaled steroids and LABAs are safe in pregnancy.[6] Both formoterol and budesonide are excreted in breast-milk.[1]

Budesonide/formoterol was approved for medical use in the United States in 2006.[7][2] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, the safest and most effective medicines needed in a health system.[8] In the United States, as of 2017, the wholesale cost of an inhaler is about US$30.[9] In the United Kingdom, the cost as of 2015, was about GB£35 for a unit with 120 doses.[10] In 2017, it was the 74th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than ten million prescriptions.[11][12]  

Medical uses
Maintenance

Budesonide/formoterol has shown efficacy to prevent asthma attacks.[4] It is unclear if budesonide/formoterol differs from fluticasone and salmeterol in chronic asthma.[13]

Exacerbation

The combination is approved in the United States only as a maintenance medication in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).[2] However, a 2020 review of the literature does support use as needed during acute worsening in those with mild disease, and as maintenance followed by extra doses during worsening.[4]

Use for both maintenance and as needed treatment is also known as single maintenance and reliever therapy ( SMART) and is a well-established treatment.[14][15] It has been shown to reduce asthma exacerbations that require oral corticosteroids, hospital visits better than maintenance inhaled corticosteroids alone at a higher dose, or inhaled corticosteroid at the same or higher dose with a long acting bronchodilator (LABA)), with a short-acting bronchodilator (SABA) as a reliever.[14][15] More studies using budesonide/formoterol SMART in children are needed.[15]

Society and culture
Doses

Symbicort in the United States is a metered-dose inhaler and is available in 160/4.5mcg and 80/4.5mcg per actuation.

In the European Union, Australia, Canada, Israel, Saudi Arabia and elsewhere the combination is available as a dry powder inhaler in the following doses: 50/3 (40/2.25), 100/3 (80/2.25), 100/6 (80/4.5), 200/6 (160/4.5) and 400/12 (320/9), where the larger number is the dose per actuation of budesonide (in micrograms) and the lower number the dose of formoterol (also in micrograms).[medical citation needed]
Market

Budesonide/formoterol formulation was introduced in Sweden in 2000. It was approved for use in the United States in July 2006.[7][17] It is now[when?] approved for use in at least 70 countries, yielding global sales in excess of $1 billion in 2005, and now[when?] approximately $3.7 billion per annum.[citation needed]

Budesonide/formoterol was approved for use in the European Union in April 2014.[18][19]

There are several patents related to the drug; some of them are already expired.[20] It was initially marketed by AstraZeneca.

The method comprises the following step: carrying out a condensation reaction on a compound I as a raw material andn-butanal, wherein an acidic ionic liquid is taken as a catalyst and a solvent during the condensation reaction. Compared with conventional inorganic catalysts such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and perchloric acid, the reaction yield and the enantio-selectivity can be improved. The post-treatment is more convenient and simple, too. Meanwhile, a reaction of hydroxyl on locus 11 and butyraldehyde is avoided to generate side products as the ketone carboxyl on the locus 11 is reduced first. After the condensation reaction with butyraldehyde, unnecessary S configuration can be separated andremoved first by splitting, so that the follow-up reaction and treatment costs are saved. The splitting effect of the steps is also relatively ideal. The preparation method is simple in step, high inyield, high in enantio-selectivity and low in cost, and is suitable for industrial production on a large scale.

Preparation method of budesonide
Abstract
The invention discloses a preparation method of budesonide. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) carrying out n-butyraldehyde aldolization for 16 alpha-hydroxyl prednisolone acetate as shown in formula (1) to obtain a budesonide crude prodct; (2) then hydrolyzing 21-acetates; and (3) collecting the product budesonide from reactant. By adopting the preparation method, the unstable midbody 16 alpha-hydroxyl prednisolone is avoided. The preparation method is easy to operate and control, and the total yield of the budesonide is greatly increased. The reaction formula is shown in the specification.
