Trump should have forced everyone to use this combination of drugs. Since he didn’t, he has blood on his hands.

I would be thrilled to get to the point where we were fighting that narrative. Thrilled.

I’ve looked everywhere for Zinc Sulfate locally. You can’t get it.

The MSM is SLOWLY moving toward HCQ. This AM the local bimbo mentioned that HCQ is being used more DESPITE the fact it is NOT approved by the FDA and NOT PROVEN to be effective on Wuhan Flu.

They see the writing on the wall. FedGov and others are reporters that HC workers have begun using it prophylactically with great success in keeping from becoming infected (along with Zinc).

Michael Savage was talking about zinc last week.

He says that you shouldn’t have more than 3 mg a day.

Imagine if they didn’t have to wait till near death.

This doc’s only reasoning for waiting that long is a potential supply shortage. Not a lack of efficacy.

Learned a new word: “prophylactically” = “intended to prevent disease”

I’d been wondering if THE TRUMP CURE could be used in that manner, and if lower doses at some periodic interval would PREVENT the disease. If so, why doesn’t America treat everyone and get this shutdown over with?

There is no approved treatment for this virus from anyone. Docs are just doing the best they can.

The people who got better after receiving this treatment approved.

Zinc is getting hard to find
I was able to score some Quercetin at the “vitamin shop”
Vitamin D3 is a very good idea, it was already in my AM pill meal

“ The antibiotic that is part of the regime has nothing to do with the stopping the virus.”

From Wiki: “ It binds to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, thus inhibiting translation of mRNA.”

Since Mexican Beer Virus is an RNA virus, there is some thought that azithromycin interferes with viral reproduction.

Seems to me that the only reason hes against using it as a prophylactic is because he says we don’t have enough of it..... In other words, wait until your symptoms start getting bad, not because it wouldn’t help to use it before it gets to that point, but because of “shortage issues”....paging Tucker Carlson and every other Conservative pundit.... at what point are you people gonna start loudly asking the question that if using this drug cocktail as a prophylactic could greatly stem this crisis, and the only thing preventing it is a shortage of pills, then why isn’t that being addressed?..... We’re well past Making the case that this drug cocktail works.... It’s time to start screaming about why anyone with a sniffle can’t start taking it

Bingo. If HCQ works in that regard, and this really is the point where we really don’t have any empirical evidence solid enough to say, “We know enough to do it.”

Another way, however, to look at this is that HCQ is routinely given to folks going to countries where Malaria is a problem, and the body tolerates it pretty well. There are health care facilities where they are quietly doing just this hoping to build up enough ‘anecdotal’ (read that ‘empirical’) evidence to show that HCPs with long term exposure to the virus on HCQ are simply not coming down with the Wuhan Flu.

That’s where we just don’t know enough, but prescribing it to regular folks who then begin to take it as if they were going to an African country, for example, has little downside except for supply chain.

We’ll see.

Incorrect.

Men need it for reproductive purposes.

They lose 1.5 mg of zinc in sperm. Each time.

NO SOONER did I send my reply to your post to me, this thread emerged.

It appears we are beginning to understand the exact method of action. HCQ and Zinc. HCQ opens up the zinc channels and blocks the landing sites for the Wuhan Bioweapon.

Quinine sulfate tablet used to be available for leg cramps

https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/4554/smpc

In 2006, the FDA banned the sale of all unapproved drugs that contained quinine. I have no idea what the content in Quinine water is, so YMMV

Would love for Trump to ask the next reporter that tells him he is bad for talking about the cure, if said reporter would not take it if he had the virus. Please Trump, ask them all and ask the next one that criticizes him for not wearing a mask to ask why said reporter is not wearing a mask.
