BTW, when I was a kid working at the pharmacy I would see prescriptions for Plaquenil come through all the time. My Mom took it for Rheumatoid Arthritis but you can only take it for three months at a time.

Don’t really understand how it works for CV since it suppresses the immune system. Mongo only pawn in game of life though.

Anyway, it is on the WHO list of essential medicines that are “the safest and most effective medicines needed in a health system.”

Nope, not approved by FDA for use on CV, it may be dangerous.

Here is how it works according to Dr. William Grace, Oncologist at Lenox Hill Hospital, NY ( this is according to what he said in an interview with Laura Ingraham ):

Older people, who tend to be the fatal victims of Covid-19, have MATURE immune systems. So, when the Covid-19 virus attacks the body, since it is a NOVEL invader, their immune system tends to over-react powerfully causing severe autoimmune reactions.

Chloroquine ( of which Plaquenil is a variety ) serves to suppress the immune over-reaction so that it can help the body fight the disease.
