There are speculative articles making gentle claims that Type 2 Diabetes is a /forme fruste/ version of Systematic Lupus Erythomatosus.

April 9. Just saying since the title says a "new" survey. My doctor said he would prescribe.
The Drs that say they would not in this poll would prescribe it in secret

An AP poll yesterday supposedly indicated that 80% “support stay-at-home measures.” Well, many people might support the current plan for hotspots and those really at risk, but the current plan does not keep all the restrictions for everyone forever. I say the AP poll is misleading at best.

My best guess is that HCQ will not come up to the results of its most enthusiastic boosters but it will have a mild positive effect.
Saying it should be given only to less sick people is changing the rules - because most of them recover with or without it.
If you wanted to study only people with normal or slight ferritin elevation, CRP <5 mg/dL, and oxygen requirement less that 5L/minute, the number needed to show a difference between Rx and no Rx would be thousands, maybe tens of thousands.
