I’ve read it in several places but don’t have a cite handy. Maybe I should qualify by saying it “seems to be most effective” when given soon after symptoms appear.

I do note that in the article, the guy quoted says the EU study waits too long to administer it.

Along with the ventilators New York State has also medications and medical supplies. Oh where can they be?

They will never admit they were wrong.

You got that right. I'm sure they've already established a "death watch" that searches for any patients being treated with antimalarial drugs that die for any reason whatsoever. If 100 people are cured and one dies, guess who gets all the press?

FDA-
Therapeutics
On March 28, 2020, FDA issued an EUA to allow hydroxychloroquine sulfate and chloroquine phosphate products donated to the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) to be distributed and used for certain hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Hopefully, in 3 years, the FDA/CDC will approve its use here.

Already done.

Just FYI:

In New York, Zelenko used hydroxychloroquine 200mg twice a day for 5 days.

In the first French study, Gautret et al. used 600mg of hydroxychloroquine daily.

It’s being used in NY right now. Some doctors are taking hydroxy chloroquine alone as a preventative. My doctor says he will prescribe it if needed, if it’s still available.

I don’t know what to do with Zelenko, his information is anecdotal and worse. He treated everyone with the sniffles without regard to whether they had Covid or not. It’s not even worth calling it a study. We need trials to figure out who/when to treat and dosing, and to prove it even works. The 200 twice a day is the dosing we use to treat lupus and the dose we have been using to treat people off label.

And the media chided, derided, and lambasted him for it 24/7.

I hope Independents and potential #walkaway Dems are taking note of this.

he big upcoming European clinical trial seems to be slanted against HCQ.>>>>>>>

I noticed that.

In addition , yesterday it was discovered that the massive quantity of the French government’s Hydroxy-Chloroquin had disappeared.....no one can explain it. Many doctors are beyond furious and are calling it treason.

Oh how I have learned to detest socialism in all of its interations.

I hadn’t heard about the disappearance of the French HCQ. Do you have a source for that? (not doubting, just would like to have for reference)

RE the European study, it’s also worth mentioning that it wasn’t even going to include HCQ initially. It was only added at the last minute, which is odd. To me the whole thing seems fishy.

“This is not your old government. This is your government under Donald Trump.”

Thanks, I saw that after I posted. It’s still the old government, mostly, but Trump is dragging them forward!
