In a less political time with more open societies, we could confirm earlier research started by the Chinese, giving us lead times for our doctors to confirm their theories, which would help get to a scientifically proven and recommended course of action. (Like the pre-print that discusses COVID-19 attacking hemoglobin which then inhibits the ability for the blood to hold oxygen.)

Unfortunately, nationalism has kicked in, and there are rumors that China is censoring any papers that discuss a possible origin, hindering progress.

So now all we can do is give oxygen and hope for the best.
