I was not a big vitamin c until I started reading about it on Free Republic. I am taking C with zinc now. C has a lot of benefits...
Even drinking ice cold orange juice, really enjoying that new habit. Will see if C keeps me heathier as I age... If not the Orange Juice is very good anyway.
Following up on indomethacin study mentioned in post 677, there is a trial starting soon using a cocktail of Hydroxychloroquine, Indomethacin and Zithromax.
“This study will measure the improvement of COVID-19 disease status as measured by time (days) required from initiation of treatment to improvement of clinical status from mild to symptom free on 14 days of a cocktail therapy of Hydroxychloroquine, Indomethacin and Zithromax.”

Based on the 2006 study of INDO vs SARS-CoV and CCov, I’m really interested in how this works out.
There is nothing better than ice cold OJ!
It’s like drinking pure energy.
I’m not trying to push INDO as an answer, just posting some surprising stuff I’m finding. No one knows if it works in humans against CV19. Like HCQ, INDO is very cheap, like $2 per dose, so few are talking about it. Not much money to be made. Anyway, here’s an in vitro study of INDO vs SARS-CoV2 in African green monkey kidney VERO E6 cells infected with SARS CoV-2.
“... indomethacin was found to possess a remarkable antiviral activity, reducing viral particle production dose-dependently with an IC50 (inhibitory concentration 50%) of 1 µM, and selective index of 500, and caused a dramatic reduction relative light unit to zero at 48 h p.i, in VERO E6 cells...”

After looking at pictures taken this weekend in various parts of the US and in other countries I would say people are done with the virus issue.
In about two weeks or so good luck with getting people to stay away from you.
This is going to have to sweep through and cull people or peter out as it mutates

“No need for a normal person to worry about individual virons. Worry about swarms of virons.”
You NAILED it. And in about 6 months the ‘experts’ will figure out the same.
I agree. I’m seeing that here in Florida as well. People appear to be done with this or about done.
One way or the other, we’re going to find out.
so what kind of drugs did Leslie Stahl take
