HCQ, zinc and ZPak have reasonably good success with early treatment. Not so much with serious advanced cases (by which time, it is too late for vaccine). There are other good treatments for serious cases, but we still have 500-1,000 per day dying from this, despite treatment.
These vaccines on the other hand, while about 95% effective at avoiding symptomatic disease, are nearly 100% effective at avoiding death from the disease.
Good points. One valid point is that HCQ was denied for political reasons. Who knows how many lives could have been saved.
Still, there have been plenty of problems with the vaccines and we know very little about their efficacy. Will we need another booster in 3, 6, 12 months? It may never end. Maybe, if we’re good, we can spend time with other vaccinated family members on July 4th? Nah, we’re going to live as we normally would. We changed nothing through-out the last year other than wear a mask when we had to.
There’s only so much to talk about as we’ve all heard the same thing over and over. From many I’ve discussed the issue, pressuring anybody to get the vaccine will have the opposite effect.
Early treatment within a small window of time...how many actually are able to pinpoint what stage they are in when the first seek treatment?
There are not 500-1000 people dying everyday from covid.
