Instead of long term Doxy use look at other things that were used to deal with Malaria and repurpose them.

They have looked at Ivermectin and HCQ.

I saw some studies dealing with Ovarian cancer.

However, people who are on Plaquenil probably still get cancer. They should look if it is less.

I now have a script for it. Been putting off taking the drug

Individuals on long-term exposure to hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine are not at lower risk of cancer. However, hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine may lower the risk of metastatic cancer and death.

You could probably take less (I took HCQ only once a week - and zinc every day - for prophylaxis), because it has a looong half-life. From serarch:

The half-life of Plaquenil is about 40 to 50 days. In other words, it takes about 40 to 50 days for your body to get rid of half of a dose of Plaquenil. It typically takes about five half-lives for a drug to leave your body completely. This means that Plaquenil stays in your system for about 200 to 250 days.
