Excellent reply to the gasbag Doc. I would have said the same. For Ivermectin and HCQ to work the Covid patient must take them early to middle. Not late and when he is in the ICU.
Ivermectin looks more effective than HCQ. Take Zinc too and Vitamin D 5000 units daily.
Late to this, but Kory et. al. make a good case that ivermectin can be a useful therapy (along with other measures) in all phases of COVID.
The current data on HCQ do indicate that it’s primarily useful if administered early in the viral stage.
Fluvoxamine shows evidence of efficacy in all stages, including so-called “long covid”.
