418 deaths in France today 30 March, the highest yet. But way under the exponential drug, so it’s working. Thing is, we don’t know what percentage of patients in France are receiving the full treatment - which includes azithromycin and a source of zinc.
I have heard, from some hospitals in these united states, that some hospitals are already using the full French treatment. So, in less than a week, we should have American data to add to the success stories.
Way under the exponential curve. That would be around 750.
The word "zinc" does not appear even once in Prof. Raoult's protocols. Let's be clear about that. This is Raoult's "full treatment":
"For all infected patients, many of whom are not very symptomatic, have lung lesions on CT scan, we propose, at the earliest stage of the disease, as soon as the diagnosis is made:
as part of the precautions for use of this combination (including an electrocardiogram on Day0 and Day2). In cases of severe pneumonia, a broad-spectrum antibiotic is also used."
- Hydroxychloroquine (200 mg x 3 per day for 10 days)
- +
- Azithromycin (500 mg on the 1st day then 250 mg per day for 5 more days)
