The country of Poland just approved these “anecdotal” drugs for treatment of the virus. We should send Dr Fraud to China.

Follow the money.

Hydroxycholorquine costs about $20 for one month’s supply. It is a generic drug manufactured by several companies. It has been approved and in use since 1955 for malaria and other diseases. It is unlikely that drug companies will pay for clinical trials in view of limited profit potential.

Remdesivir is a proprietary experimental drug developed by one major medical company, Gilead Science. It has not been approved for use at all, but is being clinically tested, apparently sponsored by Gilead Science. Estimated cost for one month’s supply is $1,000. There is a high profit potential if this drug is ultimately approved.

Is it any wonder that the drug industry is trying to slow the use of Hydroxycholoroquine to maintain a market for
remdesivir after it finishes clinical trials?

The FDA has long had a symbiotic relationship with the drug industry, which some might view as incestuous, or worse. It is possible that the FDA is complicit in delaying use of hydroxychloroquine to allow a window of opportunity for the profit from Remdesivir.

Here Are All the Drugs Proving Anecdotally Effective Against COVID-19...

Jack Daniels

Boy I was really sick one time in my 20s but decided to go to the shore and drink with buddies anyway.

Had a load of JD shots.

Must have slept for 12 hours and woke up fine.

At 51, it might not work so well

I’m surprised the author didn’t mention the combination of hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) with Azithromycin which seems to have the greatest efficacy.

Not a drug, but I heard zinc is great at warding off viruses. Of course, it’s completely sold out in the store.

They left off this combo:

hydroxychloroquine + Azithromax

Both available to be used, albeit one is”off-label”, a Dr can prescribe it.

Drs in NY and elsewhere have done so.
