Dr. Anthony Cardillo said he has seen very promising results when prescribing hydroxychloroquine in combination with zinc for the most severely-ill COVID-19 patients. More at: https://abc7.com/coronavirus-drug-covid-19-malaria-hydroxychloroquine/6079864/
Another recovery - a dad from Richmond, Virginia:
“When tests finally revealed a COVID-19 diagnosis, doctors began administering Hydroxychloroquine in an attempt to save Bryan’s life.”
I like this recovery story - a 97-year-old Florida lady with multiple health issues - who survived covid19:
Article: She’s 97 with diabetes, heart disease and more. Coronavirus should have taken her. Instead, ‘she’s a miracle.’
“Perl said she was treated with hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malarial drug, and azithromycin, an antibiotic often referred to as a Z-Pak. She never needed a ventilator, but stayed on oxygen, which she was using anyway for a heart condition.”
In before just anecdotal......
Hydroxychloroquine ‘is the best that we’ve got,’ N.J. doctors say, though its coronavirus success isn’t proven
““Right now, this is the best that we’ve got,” said Dr. Naresh Patel, a hospitalist at Christ Hospital, one of three Hudson County hospitals run by CarePoint Health. Patel said that virtually 100 percent of suspected COVID-19 cases admitted to his hospital are receiving hydroxychloroquine as part of their daily treatment regimen, though he said it remains unclear whether it is helping.
“The patients getting better, I don’t know whether I can tell you it’s the drug or the oxygen” or other treatments, said Patel, who has been working nearly non-stop amid the crisis. “I wish I had a definitive answer for you, but it is hard to tell.”

What do these doctors have in common?
They have treated their Coronavirus patients with Hydroxychloroquine with great success.
Yet, the mainstream media refuses to even talk to them, preferring to call the drug unproven.
This one’s the first case I’ve seen of someone (a woman in Arkansas) who had used HCQ for Lupus, getting covid19. However HCQ helped her keep from being on the ventilator. I don’t know if she also received azithromycin.
Bryant woman defeats COVID-19, says controversial drug could be reason for her survival
Nancy Eason has used Hydroxychloroquine for Lupus. Although it didn’t prevent her from getting COVID-19, she believes it helped her fight it.
Eason told us she believes the drug played a role in saving her life.
“You know I think probably that did, with me having that already on board, it probably kept me off the vent,” said Eason.
mmmmm. Na na na na na. I think I see a doctor in heap big doo doo.
And Dr. Ban, an emergency room doctor from the LA area. OANN featured him on one of their news shows yesterday, and he was highlighting the great success he was getting using hydroxyl chloroquine. And his absolute frustration that other doctors were dragging their heels on using it on their sick patients in dire need of help. One of these patients was able to contact Dr. Ban in time - and recovered from what was looking like a bleak and hopeless situation.
Every person who survive by this drug is a big middle finger to the Left in this country
Everyone is seeing success! Nothing is 100% and many patients present in serious condition, but this works!
We need testing for COVID, not anti-bodies. Hell, I did all the right things to avoid the virus, and I can’t go back to work b/c I don’t have the antibodies? Bull.
I should get my temp taken daily and if it goes up, get the test and get on Hydroxy, Z-Pak and Zinc immediately, take 5 days off and back to work!
We have the treatment! Let’s open up! Enough already. So many bankruptcies, so much pain if we don’t get back to work.
Thank you for starting this list. Great work!
We need (and will have) both.
"I should get my temp taken daily and if it goes up, get the test and get on Hydroxy, Z-Pak and Zinc immediately, take 5 days off and back to work!"
A not unreasonable "prescription", with the addition of physician monitoring during and re-testing after the off period (though I don't think five days is enough).
The unknown at this point is that we do not know if those "cured" with HCQ,etc. have developed sufficient antibodies to be resistant to further infection. That is critical information.
Trump should start pointIng out what they (NIH, et al) all already knew, from back in 2005:
