I need this explained to me: Why is Remdesivir an improvement over HCQ/Zinc/Antibiotics?

It makes perfect sense.

1. Drug companies will make tons of $ as the hydroxy stuff and Zpack are very cheao=p.

2. More people will die without the cheap stuff and that also suits the Demsheviks as they hope people will blame Trump.

Hey, IF remdisivir destroys the virus throughout the body, for acute patients, the cost is irrelevant because it is weighed against losing the patient to death. I don’t knock ANY medicine which can save a very serious patient from death. BUT the HCQ cocktail is not aimed at those patients. It is very effective when used early, treating the early diagnosed aggressively. The newest ests will make that treatment be very effective, IF the HCQ is allowed to be written by all physicians in any treatment setting.

(Greetings, MHGinTN!)

I’ve read that the HCQ etc does work well on severely ill patients too.

that's how it reads. It does note that this paper is not peered reviewed.

Only 6 were treated with the combo and looks like it worked 100% ?

A combination therapy, HCQ plus azithromycin was recommended by the authors based on a 100% of virus negative conversion rate within one week of treatment in 6.
We were unable to validate this result due to the limited number of patients using azithromycin (N=2).

So let’s not dwell on the most severe patients for a second.

Let’s instead dwell on everyone wanting to go back to work. Why wouldn’t HCQ and Zinc be a potential prophylactic against the Wuhan Boogaloo? Why couldn’t we use that as a front line preventative and wait for whatever else comes down the pike as the backup for the most severe cases?

I’m also suspicious of vaccines that are funded by eugenicists.

Watched it. He still does not touch on the mechanism.
“...and CQ opens those gates...”
simply by virtue of being a weak base?

“...Zinc stops replicase.”
simply by changing intracellular pH?

Always appreciate your kind desire to help.

Hydroxychloroquine is a zinc ionophore. That means HCQ acts to ferry ZINC into the cell where THE ZINC disrupts the replication of the viral RNA. HCQ also is an anti-inflammatory, so it reduces the cytokine potentials. HCQ may also alter the intracellular pH just enough to hinder the viral efforts to invade cells at the ACE2 receptor sites.

Adding the Zinc reduces the viral load so the immune system can overcome the invading pathogen.

Greetings, m’Lady! The HCQ is a good anti-inflammatory for the airways. This is no doubt helpful with ventilator patients, depending upon how acute they are.

I wonder if POTUS’ dear friend, who passed, was able to take the HCQ protocol.

Nice to see you!

Doesn’t it knock down the virus too? I’ve read people are virus free in less than a week usually with this combo.

That study was HCQ alone.

The protocol being used now is HCQ/Zn/Azithromycin.>>>>>>>>>>>

The other aspect is that this HCQ therapy must be administered before the lungs begin to fill with mucus, and before mtemperature spike to 104 degrees F or higher.

Timing is very important in application. Most studies in the past have not followed this guideline.

If you test for diagnosis instead of follwoing a physical diagnosis, by the time the test results hget back it can easily be beyond the optimum window to use it.

That’s why EVERYBODY should be on a prophylaxis dosage. of HCQ and Zinc supplement.Then back to work! Remdesivir cannot be used as prophylaxis. HCQ is better, and cheaper if administered properly at the right time.

The HCQ therapy can be applied without admission to a hospital, the Remdesivir requires hospital admission.

The way HCQ has been culled to the edges in terms of recommended use is an FDC fraud on the American public.
