“Well, then we better tell many Doctors and healthcare workers who are taking HCQ now as preventative to STOP as they are simply wasting their money and making the drug more scarce for patients who really need it.”
You’re actually going to say with a straight face that it’s a waste of time to take a drug that results in any future infection being ASYMPTOMATIC or much less severe than it would have been?
You’re really not thinking clearly here.

Doctors being Asymptomatic can still be dangerous. Let’s say a doctor who is NOT treating Covid-19 patient is treating another ill person with a heart condition. He is infected but not symptomatic. How is that not dangerous to his non-Covid patient?
I will concede that being asymptomatic is BETTER than being ill.
But the asymptomatic doctor should still not be in the hospital.
So, if the HCQ prevents one from being seriously ill even if it does not prevent infection, yes of course, it is a vast improvement and it is still useful PRE and POST Infection.
