"The doctor freely gave out the “recipe,” but the government has refused to follow it. It tested only one of the three ingredients alone, and at the wrong time, and claimed it unsuccessful."

Test results for HCQ - with or without other components such as Zinc and Azithromycin - have been all over the map, with some showing dramatic positive results, and others showing minimal or no result, or even negative effects. I wonder how many of the negative findings were those in which HCQ was used without any of the other components which Zelenko and others have touted.

[Secret Agent Man]

the results are affected by when treatment starts

the sooner the better

its more effective earlier than later

because if it establishes in the lungs you have to change how you’re treating it to prevent the immune system getting into overdrive and killing you

I have read over a dozen studies that came out against HCQ, and each and every one of them failed in basic study design.

Based on the Zelenko Protocol, HCQ is an excellent treatment for Covid-19 at

• low dosage (200-400mg) for
• short duration (5 days)
• very early in the disease process (Primary Viremia, so it can *prevent* the hyper-inflammatory stage and hospitalization)
• together with Zinc 25mg (the actual API) and
• Azithromycin (or Doxycycline) in case there is a concurrent or underling bacterial infection for
• outpatient treatment of
• vulnerable (elderly, co-morbid) patients who are at high risk of not getting better on their own.

Every "failed" study had at least one of these fatal flaws, some had several at once! They used

• high dosage, sometimes actual fatal overdoses (2400mg!)
• long durations (weeks or months, e.g. people who were already chronic HCQ users because of Lupus or RA)
• at the advanced "cytokine storm" stage of the disease process when what is need is an anti-inflammatory like inhaled corticosteroids, NOT an antiviral
• omitted Zinc, which is the active ingredient which actually stops the viral replication ("HCQ is the gun, Zinc is the bullet")
• omitted antibiotic, so if the virus didn't kill the patient, maybe the bacteria did
• after hospitalization, which means well past the time when HCQ can quickly stop the infection in its tracks
• or conversely, the study pointlessly included a large # of patients who were young, healthy, NOT high risk, so the dramatic improvement in the elderly comorbid wasn't sorted out from the numbers who just would have gotten better anyway.

In other words there were extreme design flaws ... almost... as if... they wanted to show that HCQ failed.... ya think?

That, plus the two studies (NEJM and Lancet) which used the data sets provided by Surgisphere, which were shown to be (hold onto your hat) entirely bogus. Fictional. Yes. Data fabricated out of thin air. The authors were permitted to retract these sci-fi "studies" --- what there really needs to be, is criminal indictments.

I tell you, the more I studied these things, the more I became convinced that there is something very dark going on here. Not ordinary incompetence. Not a series of honest mistakes. Something designed to gin up death rates and create fear that nothing was going to work against Covid. Especially not a lifesaving $20 solution pioneered by a beardo Hasidic Family Practitioner--- and Trump.
