Viruses use the patient's own genetics against him or her. That makes for a very difficult infection. The worst of the virus can become deadly when the patient is weak OR weakened during the course of the virus.
Always take it seriously and seek treatment which may very well mean hospitalization to attempt to maintain OPTIMAL WELLNESS during the course of the disease. There is no removing the infection from the human body yet. The idea is to make it to the other side of the COURSE OF THE INFECTION as a survivor.
It is easy to understand why the Third World has such profound problems with illnesses that are this difficult to live through. The people of the Third World are under heavy stress everyday. Stress compromises the immune system. They are up against the odds as soon as they are infected.

He's currently being treated at Hackensack Hospital in New Jersey.
Cai is in his early 30's and works as a physician's assistant. His cousin is a cardiologist at Mount Sinai....
