Tremendously emotional (and unfiltered) first person account of his fight with COVID-19 by Miracle Larry who thanked our Dr. Cush @RheumNow for his ingenuity in fighting COVID-19, thanking healthcare workers for all they do, and reminding us to be empathic.

Biosimilar is well-researched with cost savings

MTX is a prodrug!
MTX polyglutamate is true active ingredient
1/2 of MTX PG is 60 days, compared to only 6-8 horus for MTX
Steady state is not until 27.5 weeks!
