RE: I also wonder about whether they accounted for zinc intake in the study.
Are you saying that to be an effective protective against Covid-19 infection for those not infected, one must ALSO take Zinc together with HCQ the same way patients do during treatment?
To my layman’s understanding, HCQ works with zinc to prevent virus replication. It is not a shield against exposure and infection, but rather against significant progression of the infection and disease.
If the CCP virus can be rendered into the same category as the flu with respect to hospitalizations and deaths, then the virus is no longer a cause for panic.
