I'm not sure if I'm missing the joke due to the translation, but it is a very silly article.

Most of the people survive to this virus, so it's not strange that he survived. Specially if he has 25 years old.

It's probably not wise to avoid the antibiotics. I remember in other somewhat similar outbreaks it was common to get a secondary bacterial infection that make things worse.

(Was the recipe for antibiotics or antivirals? He doesn't look like a accurate source.)
