UK nurse reportedly recovers from COVID-19 coma after receiving Viagra

She recovered from COVID-19 – with help from the little blue pill, according to a report.

Monica Almeida, 37, a fully vaccinated nurse in the UK, spent 28 days in a coma after contracting COVID-19 and was just 72 hours from having her ventilator turned off when she was saved by a “large dose of Viagra,” the Lincolnite reported.

This may get you to stand up and take notice. A nurse in the U.K. reportedly credits Viagra for saving her from severe, life-threatening Covid-19. Yes, that Viagra, the one typically used for erectile dysfunction. Such news has already helped the word “Viagra” trend on Twitter with tweets such as the following from Robert M. Wachter, MD, Professor and Chair of the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF):

The New York Post story included a quote from Almeida telling The Sun, “It was definitely the Viagra that saved me. Within 48 hours it opened up my airwaves and my lungs started to respond.” She added, “If you think how the drug works, it expands your blood vessels. I have asthma and my air sacks needed a little help.”

As you can see, in the segment, Carlson said, “Who thought Viagra would save us from thepandemic?” Marc Siegel, MD, FOX News Medical Contributor, who joined Carlson on the show concluded the segment by saying, “I’m getting ready to try it out.” All right, maybe that last statement was TMI. Regardless, did Carlson and Siegel seem a little too happy to see this news about Viagra? Before you make 2022 an “erection” year or even a mid-term “erection” year, take a closer look at what specifically was said on the segment.
