“it’s widely available.” and made in China are not two mutually exclusive statements. They can both possibly be true. It may not be true but it can be true.

Quinine is is tonic water. It’s difficult to find a safe way to get it if you try to do this on your own.

Yup, the FDA won’t allow it. Just another case where there is too much money to lose. Look for horrible side effect stories next.

“I suppose this “commonly available anti-malaria drug known as chloroquine aka chloroquine phosphate” is made in China.”

It is made principally in China and India. Because malaria is not an issue in the USA there are no manufacturers or distributors here.

If that’s the only obstacle, the President very well may executive order right through it.

Their cohorts are rubbing their hands together in anticipation the miracle vaccine release. I don’t think they will be denied.

There is a research paper by Dr James M. Todaro, in consultation with Stanford University School of Medicine, The UAB School of Medicine and National Academy of Sciences researchers.

It is based on the experience and clinical studies in South Korea.

The paper can be freely downloaded from Google Docs at

With so many sheltered in place, he’d have a heck of a bully-pulpit.

A conservative friend of mine wrote the following after I posted about choloroquine:
This isn’t really breaking.. nor groundbreaking. Hydroxycholoroquine is frequently used for RA. However it isn’t an anti-viral and has been dismissed by many infectious disease specialists. If you’re a physician you can log into specific studies (which I cannot share unfortunately) to show that there isn’t much data to go on to give hope to this as a valid treatment.
Thoughts?

Lack of data is what I read. So no data to make a determination one way or the other.

That, and even if it isn’t anti-viral, it may be affecting chemistry the virus depends on.

I’m no expert...but I passed this on to a top French consultant, who told me Sanofi are donating 300,000 boxes

Plus I hear the UK has banned all exports of the drug.....why ????

Quercetin also opens the cell to allow Zinc in to stop the viral replication. It can be purchased OTC.
