Yes, Hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin and zinc picolinate needs to be started early when it’s still a virus attack BEFORE it turns into a disease of the body.

We aren’t being scammed, we are being murdered and enslaved; TPTB will do literally ANYTHING to defeat Trump and reassert their control over us (and don’t think that they will EVER let go again if they succeed - they have learned their lessons).

The side effects for taking 400 mg twice a day for 5 days are complete BS; tens of millions have taken more and for longer for malaria since the mid-1950’s, and at least hundreds of thousands of Lupus and RA victims have been taking it for years or decades. My own mother has been on it for 5 years while having cardiac affib as a pre-existing condition- with NO side effects at all.

If hydroxychloroquine was dangerous, we would have found out 50 years ago and it wouldn’t be on the market.

I have an idea...50 doctors at NIH.

"RE: I think it is obvious that the drug has some benefits if started early in the course of the disease. Not when someone is on intubation."

Right exactly. Raoult intimated that when the patient can't swallow the pill that was the corollary for next treatment phase.

"HCQ drives the Zinc into the cells in question and blocks RNA replication for this virus. Zpac prevents opportunistic infections from taking advantage."

That's what I keep reading daily. My question is does a person really need the Z-pac if they currently don't have a bacterial infection?

A Doctor in New York has had great success with doxycycline antibiotic that doesn't cause heart arrhythmia problems. It's been used for years with those who have questionable heart problems, with no detrimental affects.

"If hydroxychloroquine was dangerous, we would have found out 50 years ago and it wouldn’t be on the market."

You're confusing HCQ with the antibiotic azithromycin that can cause heart arrhythmia that can cause heart attack.

Read my post above about a New York Doctor using doxycycline instead of Z-pac with great success and NO heart complications.

Doxycycline is a tetracycline antibiotic that fights bacteria in the body. Doxycycline is used to treat many different bacterial infections, such as acne, urinary tract infections, intestinal infections, respiratory infections, eye infections, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, periodontitis (gum disease), and others.

If you want a prescription, yes.

If you want to boost your own immune system with zero side effects, the natural approach is preferable. Once the lungs are threatened, one needs to be under some kind of nebulizer protocol. The Brownstein approach works for any virus.

In reality everyone should be keeping their vitD in blood levels high year round.

I am not wrong, here is a quote from Wikipedia on adverse reactions to hydroxychloroquine:

“The most common adverse effects are nausea, stomach cramps, and diarrhea. The most serious adverse effects affect the eye, with dose-related retinopathy as a concern even after hydroxychloroquine use is discontinued.[2] For short-term treatment of acute malaria, adverse effects can include abdominal cramps, diarrhea, heart problems, reduced appetite, headache, nausea and vomiting.”

Note that my mother’s doctor told her that among the heart problems it could cause or exacerbate is arrhythmia; having that pre-existing condition, she specifically asked.

Ironically, last night I was speaking with my mother, and she related how an elderly veteran friend of hers (a retired nurse, like my mother) had been hospitalized with the Xi virus, and that she was quite ill...until they gave her hydroxychloroquine, at which point she turned around very quickly. I don’t know if they also gave her a z-pack and/or zinc.

This “study” is utter bullshit. Those opposed to Trump are not just willing, but EAGER, to see thousands die and initiate a worldwide depression, just to defeat him and pave the way for permanent Deep State control over this country. THAT is the sick and twisted nature of those with whom we are dealing.

When James Car vile spewed his accusation that republicans will kill you, he was showing us the agenda of the demon rats. The demon rats consistently do what they accuse others of.

CNN has been saying all day that the thoroughly discredited story about the malaria drug kills CIVID-19 patients. They’re also saying that Trump says it’s OK to inject Lysol into your lungs with a needle. Today’s briefing should be lively.

All I’m saying is that side effects are the current excuse.

Won’t help Gilead is actually a good company. Forte is in viral research. They have an automated system for finding cure candidates. If the price goes down, its a buy. Long term until we have a universal viral killer its tech will be huge to end the kind of crap we’re going through now.

The drug “has been working on middle-age and younger veterans,” Wilkie added. By that, he meant that it was “stopping the progression of” COVID-19

Is there a null hypothesis in here somewhere?
