UPDATE: A Covid-19 case correlation between malarial and non-malarial countries has been plotted by Dr. Roy Spencer, and the results are stunning – see below.
Encouraging news: three new medical studies show a commonly available anti-malaria drug known as chloroquine aka chloroquine phosphate is showing strong results against COVID-19 infections in both China and South Korea. Excerpts from three studies, including one published in Nature are below.

Fourth reference to chloroquine I’ve seen today. Heard it mentioned in the presser today too. President having presser tomorrow related to the FDA. Fingers crossed.
I suppose this “commonly available anti-malaria drug known as chloroquine aka chloroquine phosphate” is made in China.
I read the Australian story yesterday saying an AIDS drug and chloroquine were effective. I hope this is the case.
This could be very good news indeed.
Re old antimalarials, wonder if anyone’s trialed some DDT ;-)
Not for long.
Made In China is about to go bye bye.
I sure as hell hope so !
Took a pill called chloroquine-primiquine monthly in Vietnam.
All: go to the link and check out the map that says: Covid 19 is where malaria is not.
If this map is true, it is stunning.
And you took it to prevent malaria if I’ve read right.
Me too.
China should be ostracized into oblivion.
I hope so, but as long as most large corps are run by sociopaths they will continue to take advantage of slave labor. Only so much Trump can do when most of congress is on the “payroll” of the big corps. The solution is to start screening out sociopaths from corporate leadership positions.
Good to hear.
Wouldn’t quinine (tonic water) do the same thing? Had a friends who spent years in Africa who treated a relapse of malaria with quinine, while staying with us.
No .....it’s widely available.
We should flatten those labs. We have flattened places for far less. (Aspirin factory)
And cheap.
I read the Australian story yesterday saying an AIDS drug and chloroquine were effective. I hope this is the case.
Most AIDS drugs are immune system boosters which from what little I know of this disease is what you are looking to as part of treatment.
