British Nurse Allegedly Wakes Up From COVID Coma After Being Given Viagra
Viagra seems to have been a lifesaver for one nurse who got out of a coma caused by COVID-19.
Monica Almeida, 37, a fully vaccinated nurse from England was in a coma for 28 days after she contracted COVID-19 and was just three days from having her ventilator switched off when she was saved by Viagra.
According to the Lincolnite, she is a respiratory specialist for the UK’s free healthcare system, the NHS, and she got COVID at the end of October. She quickly lost her sense of taste and smell, then began coughing up blood and she began to suffer from a lack of Oxygen, and things took a turn for the worse and she ended up in a coma.
Before being put in a coma, Almeida signed a document consenting to take part in a study to try experimental drugs, and she was ultimately given viagra which opened up her airways.
“It was definitely the Viagra that saved me. Within 48 hours it opened up my airwaves and my lungs started to respond,” Almeida told the Sun. “If you think how the drug works, it expands your blood vessels. I have asthma and my air sacs needed a little help.”
“It was really hard, but the nurse looking after me was a former colleague which made a big difference and the staff could see how frightened I was and they were amazing,” she said
“Mentally I am now as good as ever, but I do get a bit teary and frustrated at times. Physically, I am very weak and fragile, but I am determined to recover,” Almeida added.
So, she did get saved by Viagra, which can legally be given to COVID patients in the United Kingdom if they have consented to the trial.
“He told me it was the Viagra. I laughed and thought he was joking, but he said, ‘No, really, you’ve had a large dose of Viagra,’” she said of her doctor. “It was my little Christmas miracle.”
