Chinese study three days to travel the world will not infect the world with Coronavirus.

Did they include zinc, or did they just use HCQ?

ChiCom study to throw off the world with misinformation. Again.

Get the HCQ with Zpac and zinc to victims early and they don’t get hospitalized and they don’t die.

I trust Dr. Zelenko’s results among hundreds from Monroe, NY even without a study than the ChiCom release.

We have too many stories of individuals doing well after the HCQ cocktail.

According to this analysis by Josh Farkas associate professor of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine at the University of Vermont, on the Chinese study,

https://emcrit.org/pulmcrit/hydroxychloroquine-fail/

It says:

The study has major limitations, for example:

* Lack of blinding or placebo control.

* Performance of the study by a contract research organization, rather than directly by the investigators.

* Early termination due to recruitment problems and the impression of benefit (which may have led to under-powering).

* Relatively long delay between symptom onset and treatment initiation (16-17 days).

The last limitation is the one that kills the result of the study.

If you believe anything the Chinese say you should be; Watered lightly, sprayed for aphids and placed on a sunny windowsill.

Seems legit - after all, the Chinese never ever lied to us about the coronavirus...

Ever.

thanks for that info- yep- that last one is a doosey-

many docs though are touting it’s usage even in late stages, and a lot of anecdotal stories about people on brink making miraculous recoveries when given the drugs- but I’m sure some don’t make it in late stages-

[[”Nonetheless,” he says, “this study currently represents the highest available quality of evidence regarding hydroxychloroquine.”]]

BS- man6 studies and trials show just the opposite- and were more thorough than their study- evidently-
