You have posted some excellent points and clarifications. Thank you. I also agree that the perception of HCQ legitimate use is that it is against a parasite, and anything would be murky. Just one thing to highlight, however, is that HCQ treatment is not just used to combat a parasite. It is also already approved and used for inflammatory conditions such as Lupus and Rheumatoid arthritis, correct? I think this is important to note.
Tx, and yes; and I very poorly alluded to that ('twas in my thoughts but I failed to actually write about that re "indirect vector vs a virus") - given that I am uncertain about what virus might be involved re Lupus and Rheumatoid arthritis. I do not know about research re Lupus, and barely a little (anecdotal), re Rheumatoid arthritis.
