Indians routinely take HCQ, as malaria is common there.

Those smart Indians had better be listened to!

After all, our tech businesses love those H1B visa Indian immigrant staffers!

Worldwide or in India, from the very beginning, it appears that if you have the disease and it is serious enough to be recorded and monitored you have about one chance in five of dying.

so if you use it as a prophylaxis does this mean you have to take it continuously?

This is a game-changer. If you can give the public a daily dose of HCQ with a Z-pack, we can open up the country immediately.

Let the totalitarian States try to ban the treatment of people with this. The bloodbath against the Democrats in November will be worse than what it will be now.

Great question. I’ve wondered that myself.

Then you hear Docs that say they only use HCQ-Zinc-antibiotic only on their worst covid cases.

The antibiotics being used are azithromycin or doxycycline.

I am not a Doc by any means but I would go strong on the Zinc and not obsess on the antibiotic. Plenty of Bulk Supplements Zinc Citrate at ebay, Amazon and their own Bulk Supplements website.

I buy their stuff all the time. My latest buy was pea protein isolate via eBay which they sent by priority mail when they didn’t have to. They barely made profit from this kind of shipping but they just want to get things OUT! To their customers.

It is not daily. That is the treatment.

For prophelactic use, I believe is is simply once a WEEK.

I believe.

More than 1/4 of those bad enough to get in a hospital were moved to their ICU.

That’s what I’ve been seeing.

Just in case, I started drinking Tonic Water knowing full well it was a very small dose and have done so for 3 weeks.

God-willing, it will never be put to the test.

I believe (sorry if this is wrong, but I believe) the prophelactic use is once / WEEK.

Not once / day.

I believe.

(Not a doctor)

RE: If you can give the public a daily dose of HCQ with a Z-pack, we can open up the country immediately.

Let’s assume that HCQ plus Z-pack INDEED acts as prophylaxis against Covid-19...

I am a numbers guy — how many pills of HCQ and Zinc does a person need daily/weekly to protect against Covid-19?

After we know the answer, Multiply that by 300 million for the USA ( make that 7 billion for the world ) by X number of days a year the dosage needs to be taken and you will see the daunting task of producing these pills.

I wish I could remember what I saw about the dosage being cumulative. If that was the case you could take a course and then do a much smaller maimtanance dose.

As a prophylactic, there is no need to take a Z-Pack with the HCQ as its purpose is to prevent an subsequent opportunistic bacteria causing pneumonia in a recovering Covid-19 patient.

Dr. Vladimir Zelenk, who has been treating nearly a thousand Covid-19 patients in his community and preventing all of them from hospitalization, is himself, being a high risk person, taking HCQ plus Zinc as a prophylaxis.

He was interviewed by Jerome Corsi and a Dr. Karladine Graves and his protocol. Dr. Zelenko talks about his prophylactic protocol.

I believe for protective purposes, he recommends 200 mg of HCQ twice daily for 5 straight days and then 220 mg once a week from thereon. Zinc, 220 mg daily.
