Is Hydroxychloroquine The Cure For Coronavirus? Global Scramble For Tablets Suggests so

Cure, no.
Damn good therapy choice for many, yes.

Correct. Chloroquine is a prophylactic.

the Government of India has already placed an order of 10 crore tablets

10 crore = 100 million.

RE: 10 crore = 100 million.

So, a crore is ten million? That’s Indian Unit of measurement!

You learn something new everyday !!

It has been an FDA approved drug since 1955, widely used against malaria, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis. For these disingenuous moron hacks to fear-monger saying “WE DON’T KNOW IF IT HAS SIDE EFFECTS!” Is the height of ignorance. The side effects are well known, documented, and minor/rare.

Mylan Pharma in Morgantown, WV is producing pills.

Wastout ands Travis Magee are deeply saddened...doomers are apoplectic.

RE: For these disingenuous moron hacks to fear-monger saying “WE DON’T KNOW IF IT HAS SIDE EFFECTS!” Is the height of ignorance

Maybe they mean side effects at the amount needed to be given to Covid-19 patients.

ANY drug, taken at certain dosages WILL have side effects.

Also, there was some concern with people who have heart Arrythmias.

“there is still no medical evidence to show that it indeed works.”

They keep conflating “evidence” with “proof”. Evidence is grounds for proof, and undeniably there is a lot of that, “anecdotal” or not. Grounds for proof is not yet proof, but it justifies optimism and guides decision making.

On the other hand, when it comes to something to ruin the reputation of some conservative, “accusation” is conflated with “evidence”. Putting it all together, when it gives them an advantage, Leftists will say an accusation is equivalent to proof. “I believe her”.

re: “Is Hydroxychloroquine The Cure For Coronavirus? “

Read the reports ... they are convincing. BUT treatment ought to begin soon enough BEFORE a lot of lung tissue is ‘torn up’ and dead ...

It has been an FDA approved drug since 1955

2,709,918 Americans served in Vietnam

They all were given this anti malarial during their tours. Side effects must have been extremely mild to non existent since there never has been issue with the drug in that 10 year period.

Since the President has been “touting” the drug, how long before the MSM starts frantically reporting on people dying from taking it, with PDJT being culpable?

Oh...wait...there was that fish tank in AZ, wasn’t there?

It’s MSM, so expect to read that it’s not “proven” a thousand and one times.

Never mind the widespread anecdotal reports of providers on the front lines. I’ll take the information from by front line officers, not some ivory tower prick wanting to push crap into months long trials and limit access.

It’s infuriating actually.

So did John Kerry take it? I think he might have been in Vietnam. Maybe.

You can get a crore into a restroom in Mumbai. They ae building a second to handle the overflow.

Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are two different drugs, similar in chemical structure, but different molecules. Chloroquine is older tech and has more side effects. Hydroxychloroquine was synthesized to be a safer replacement for chloroquine.

It has been an FDA approved drug since 1955, widely used against malaria, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Correct.

For these disingenuous moron hacks to fear-monger saying “WE DON’T KNOW IF IT HAS SIDE EFFECTS!” Is the height of ignorance. The side effects are well known, documented, and minor/rare.

I can personally attest to all that, haven taken literally hundreds of doses of Chloroquine to deal with malaria back when I was in Africa. I don't see what the fuss is about.

Is this a new product or have they been producing there prior to virus?
