malaria is not bacteria it is a parasite. Even third year medical students know this. Zero credibility to this author
Author: You see, malaria is this little parasite
The author does state that malaria is "a little parasite". The reference to virus vs bacteria would apply to azythromycine which is an antibacterial drug. However in this case it is working to control fluid in the lungs. That has been pointed out in all of the studies that used the HDC and Azythromycine combo. In one study, Doxycycline was substituted for Azythromycine to avoid the lengthening of the Q wave in high risk patients. It was still noted that it was used for its anti-inflammatory action.
You may want to read this article more slowly, where it explains that malaria is caused by a parasite.
How does chloroquine work? Same way as it does for malaria. You see, malaria is this little parasite that enters the red blood cells and starts eating hemoglobin as its food source. The reason chloroquine works for malaria is the same reason it works for COVID-19 while not fully understood, it is suspected to bind to DNA and interfere with the ability to work magic on hemoglobin. The same mechanism that stops malaria from getting its hands on hemoglobin and gobbling it up seems to do the same to COVID-19 (essentially little snippets of DNA in an envelope) from binding to it. On top of that, Hydroxychloroquine (an advanced descendant of regular old chloroquine) lowers the pH which can interfere with the replication of the virus. Again, while the full details are not known, the entire premise of this potentially game changing treatment is to prevent hemoglobin from being interfered with, whether due to malaria or COVID-19.
Look at this study.
Apparently your reading comprehension is on par with a first grader. “You see, malaria is this little PARASITE that enters the red blood cells and starts eating hemoglobin as its food source. “
Lay people filling in details.
Tobe fair,the only use of the word bacteria is in the supposed quotes from those saying that an anti-malaria drug won’t work on a virus. I think he was making fun of them with the “quote”.
But the author also says that malaria is caused by “a little parasite”. (In the second paragraph that is under the heading “The story with Hydroxychloroquine”
I think what the article is saying is that chloroquine/Hdroxycholoroquine interferes with a mechanism that both SARS-Cov-2 and the Malarial “parasite” use to attack hemoglobin.
