Zinc hope in coronavirus fight (Wow, who'd of thunk??)
Telegraph India ^ | Today | By G.S. Mudur in New Delhi

Scientists have known for years that the mineral plays a key role in maintaining human immune system

--

Doctors have reported that adding zinc sulfate, a dietary supplement, to hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin may benefit patients with coronavirus disease, adding a twist to the controversy over the rationale for prescribing hydroxychloroquine for Covid-19.

Doctors at the New York University Grossman School of Medicine have found that adding zinc sulfate to hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin already given to Covid-19 patients decreased the need for ventilation or admission to intensive care units, and lowered mortality.

Their study provides the first evidence through patients that zinc sulfate in combination with the other two drugs may have a role in the treatment of Covid-19, the doctors said. Their study was posted on Friday in a database for medical research but has not been peer-reviewed yet.

Here's my shocked face.

B)

Only EVERY SINGLE PERSON on this entire website, has been loudly repeating exactly that, for more than THREE ENTIRE MONTHS.

About darned time someone checked this.

Interesting.

This article is in the India Telegraph, but is covering research evidently, done at the New York University Grossman School of Medicine

What if... HC in a low dose, -Zn & Vitamins A,C, D, selenium, the B’s (and any other immune boosters supplements you can think if) could be in 1 or 2 tablets & taken profolactically during the cold & flu season especially by those at risk? Am I the only one to ask this? Where or who is the Drug & or Vitamin Company with the capital & cohones to research this & trial it? Or, are their powers that be that wouldn’t want this?

No, you are not the only person.

In fact there is I believe one dosage of Hydroxychloroquine which is I believe possibly taken as a prophylactic dosage. I am not a doctor, but you can look it up and see what you think. It does NOT make one immune, except while being used.

I believe that is once/ week.

Be aware the drug is relatively powerful. Careful one does NOT want to take too much, always get a doctor’s prescription.

Be aware this is Hydroxychloroquine, not Zinc.

It’s scary if you do not take your own health seriously enough to stay informed on treatment developments, especially with the aid of the Internet. We know why zinc is so important and why the combo with HCQ is such a great therapeutic against SARS CoV-2. I became aware of this marvelous combination back on March 10 when Dr. Seheult described the interaction of the two drugs on his terrific medical YouTube website - MedCram. I may have posted the video at the time, but for those who missed it here is his explanation again. It blows my mind how many people have to die before doctors and researchers read the medical literature that’s out there which Dr. Seheult was reading and talking about months ago. How many Americans have died and continue to die because of this ignorance?

Fauci and CDC are going to have a hard time keeping HCQ down when over 100 other countries are using it.

India is central, for this drug.

They already make, like 70% of the world’s total.

Last week they approved like 60 additional factories in India, to produce the drug.

Watch India.

This medication was kept out of the hands of the American people by dictatorial governors of rat states.

Key quote: KEEPS THE INFECTED OUT OF THE HOSPITAL AND NO VENTILATOR NEEDED”

state hospital bill to medicare: 13000 for diagnosis. 39000 to be put on ventilator, 52000 per patient DO THE MATH!

not only cashing in but keeping the death toll up SCUMBAGS

I’m on more supplements than I’ve ever been on in my life: a multi-vitamin, D3, K2, C, Turmeric Curcumin Complex, NAC, Green Tea Extract and also drinking Green Tea(zinc ionophore), QBC Plex(quercetin, bromelain, & C —another zinc ionophore), and of course Zinc (+Copper).

Melatonin before bedtime.

And I got some L-Glutathione today just to have on hand. Not planning on taking that daily, just if I feel the need. It’s expensive, so I’m saving it in case I actually get sick. I bought the last two bottles my local Sprouts had.

MedCram is why I’m on most of the supplements I’m taking. I watch all his COVID-19 videos. Terrific youtube channel, for sure.

Israel is dosing medical workers once a week, others are daily.

Sorry, You’ll need a randomized, double-blind, with placebo control Phase II clinical trial, followed a 6-arm racially-controlled Phase III trial over 2 respiratory seasons in both hemispheres before FDA will approve... :-)

People have been talking about it every day for two months and they finally "discover" it? The way some of these people think we would never have discovered fire and the wheel.
