Hopefully they are adding ZINC

If you are a leftist who doesn’t trust Trump or HCQ, DON’T TAKE IT.

People are talking about the benefits of Remdesivir. I wonder if anyone is talking about its cost for a typical treatment? The cost will shock you!

Just so you don’t have to go on the Google egg hunt to find out, I will give you a clue:

$4,460 per course of treatment.

Zinc is helped by HCQ which opens the pathways through the cell membrane for zinc to enter the cell. Zinc destroys the RNA dependant RNA polymeras enzyme which transcribes the proteins in the virus’s duplication process. HCQ inhibits the docking of the virus to the cell. It is the lock on the door (ACE-2 receptor). Zinc is the insurance in case HCQ fails.

How many corona viruses enter via the ACE2 receptors?

Fauxi knew hydroxyxhloroquine could both cure and prevent corona viruses in 2005.  Passive aggressive on HCQ in 2020.  Intentional?

-”Fauxi” praised use of hydroxychloroquine in 2013 to treat the MERS corona virus.  Silent in 2020.  Part of “Plandemic” ?

I'm not sure if viruses could enter the cell, once one was in. If they could come in, could they engage in simultaneous duplication processes? Once in, I think they can turn the cell's machinery into a virus manufacturing plant:

My question is how many viruses could be treated with hcq and zinc, related to how many viruses infect using the ACE2 receptor site, not how many could invade simutaneously.

As far as I know, the ability of the coronavirus to enter the cell through the ACE-2 receptor is unique to that type of virus which uses the Spike Protein for entry. There is another receptor that has just been discovered—the CD147, a receptor on the host cell—which enables the coronavirus’s entry. Other viruses trick the cell into thinking that the virus knocking at the door is nothing more than nutrition or harmless goods. A virion’s machinery is so efficient that each cell infected by even a single virion can produce about a million new virions. Because enveloped viruses use similar mechanisms for delivery of genetic material into cells, there may be ways to prevent infection before viral entry that would be effective for large numbers of different viruses. Such drugs as HCQ or, in your case, Quercetin, prevent entry.

the controversial experimental drug

Only since Trump mentioned it in a positive way

The article linked to has very little of the text you posted. Barely mentions Vegas.

I don’t understand what you are referring to. Which article is that?

Please Ignore my previous question

Oh I see, I made a mistake posting Wayne Allard’s link instead of this link, which is what where the text of this article :

https://www.reviewjournal.com/life/health/las-vegas-hospital-blazes-own-path-with-malaria-drug-to-treat-covid-19-2005095/

I apologize for the mistake.

Ahh, that’s mo betta. I’ll add it to my collection of hydroxychloroquine articles. http://freerepublic.com/~pollard/index
