#3 > Doctors report hydroxychloroquine has over 90% chance to cure coronavirus patients

Whats the %age of those not treated with hydroxychloroquine ?

I'm staying safe and consuming Quinine (in tonic form) with an throat cleaning product (gin) and a viral replication suppressor (ice).

#4 Don't forget the vitamin-packed olive, PB.

A no-brainer about Big Pharma. Anecdotal, my zhopa. MSM gets ad revenue from the pharmaceutical-industrial complex, so the MSM has its orders.

Much of this COVID-19 house of cards comes crashing down with a cheap and effective HCQ (remember the wacko guv-nah in Michigan wanted to yank medical licenses (in the middle of a pandemic) of doctors for prescribing HCQ).

#5 Someone tell the VA. Waiting to apply it after everything else has failed isn't the protocol.

#6 RE: #1 But g(r)om, HQC doesn't cure the virus (despite the headline). It treats the inflammation that damages the lungs, allowing the patient to survive until until he/she/preference overcomes the virus. When they recover, they'd have COVID antibodies, no?

#7 #6 We don't know exactly that it does. But, some antibiotics cure bacterial infections before immune memory can be formed. Well, with all the organizations working on a vaccine, that's not a problem. I wonder if some Chinese researchers are working like crazy right now - trying to figure what makes CV19 vulnerable to HCQ and engineer it out.
