Hydroxychloroquine and the azithromycin ping.
Nah. Probably the bourbon and cigars.
BTW, when India (main source of HGQ) said they wouldn't be exporting, Trump just secured a deal for many millions of those pills with the Prime Minister. Pres. Trump will go down in history as saving thousands of American lives. Dr. Fauci will be seen as wrong at every stage of COVID-19.
The CDC will go down as another bureaucratic failure. I keep asking, what the hell do they do if not preparing for an epidemic or pandemic with physical resources (gloves, masks, ventilators, etc.)? Oh right, after looking up the CDC website, it's obvious they are about their meetings, seminars, conferences, and even their own museum. WTF?
This may not do anything at all for a patient.
Zinc is what actually stops the virus replicase, once it has attached to an ACE2 receptor and deposited its RNA strand into a cell.
There are peer-reviewed articles showing this from the original SARS epidemic.
Don't get me wrong, Hydroxychloroquine is extremely important. Intercellular zinc levels need to be increased in infected cells. Hydroxychloroquine acts as a "zinc ionophore", which means in creates a "gateway" into the cell that zinc can pass through. Otherwise, it's very difficult for zinc to get absorbed in.
If a patient is just given Hydroxychloroquine alone (or with Azithromycin) then its like have a "gateway" with nothing to pass through. Many people are normally deficient in zinc to begin with.
We all need to be careful to quote the true therapeutic solution for COVID-19 - zinc. Then we can add the method to get zinc into the cell - Hydroxychloroquine.
By the way, the natural supplement 'Quercetin' is also a zinc ionophore. It's hard to absorb, so supplements usually combine it with things like Bromelain to help.
