A Wisconsin woman who has had lupus for most of her life said she takes hydroxychloroquine and still caught COVID-19.
Kim, who only wants her first name used, said she has taken the anti-malarial drug for 19 years to help treat the pain caused by her lupus.
...
Kim said her primary care doctor prescribed antibiotics, but her condition worsened. She said when she went to an urgent care center days later, nurses said her oxygen saturation levels were at 78%, when they need to be at 95% or higher.
Kim said after arriving at a hospital, she tested positive for COVID-19.
...
Kim said she was in the hospital for seven days. She said she was on oxygen and received plasma.
She is mostly recovered now, but is still on oxygen at her home.
