Chinese Study....Bwahahahahahahahaha!
Ok China.
Chinese study three days to travel the world will not infect the world with Coronavirus.
Chinese study??????????????????????????????????
Did they include zinc, or did they just use HCQ?
Trusting anything that comes out of China shows lack of REASON. (pun intended)
” ..treatment was initiated fairly late..”
Vs. instructions for Hydroxy.., use early.
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.
nonsense study- period- many many trials and studies have been done now- almost lal of them showing very very promising results- only these ‘chinese studies’ show anything ‘negative’
150 Patients!!!!
Hardly worth doing study.
A Chinese study?
The author is a jack@$$
The analysis that I saw was the HCQ plus zinc and zpac, and started early. The HCQ is thought to assist zinc to enter and fight the virus.
Not interested in studies that only use half of the treatment started too late—just those that the various docs have reported helpful.
Also the actual symptoms such as being able to breathe better are certainly positives—and not necessarily related to viral load.
JMO—HCQ is generic and not likely to make any PHARMA big bucks, so I don’t expect a lot of researchers to give the cheap solution a fair shake.
I wonder why they didn’t compare it to the one the French doctor did that worked extremely well? Hmmm....
A couple of points:
1. They needed zinc. It doesn’t look like they used it. Big mistake if so.
2. My favorite theory of how HCQ works is that it protects red blood cells from being depleted of oxygen. So the patient recovers. There is no reason to expect a reduction in viral load. The medication doesn’t directly attack the virus.
3. The only really worrisome comment was about no visible difference in the apparent health of both groups. But the zinc could explain that.

A significant efficacy of HCQ on alleviating symptoms was observed when the confounding effects of anti-viral agents were removed in the post-hoc analysis (Hazard ratio, 8.83, 95%CI, 1.09 to 71.3)
This was further supported by a significantly greater reduction of CRP (6.986 in SOC plus HCQ versus 2.723 in SOC, milligram/liter, P=0.045) conferred by the addition of HCQ, which also led to more rapid recovery of lymphopenia, albeit no statistical significance.
Conclusions The administration of HCQ did not result in a higher negative conversion rate but more alleviation of clinical symptoms than SOC alone in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 without receiving antiviral treatment, possibly through anti-inflammatory effects. Adverse events were significantly increased in HCQ recipients but no apparently increase of serious adverse events.
China lies.
Zinc + Azithromycin?
I thought the recipe that works is “HCQ + Z-pak + Zinc”.
They didn’t use it in combination with a Z Pak and zinc
