I also noticed that they did not include zinc in the equation at all. Had they included zinc they would have had better results than the results they actually state.

See my #21 for reference re Zinc. ;-)

Probably only because they had not enough occaions of its inclusion in the case histories. Not their fault, and nost certainly not of being unaware. I certainly would want zinc and vitamin D⁽³⁾ included in the treatment.

Actually, I have been taking them even now. One does not even need a scrip for that, they are OTC-available, and that cheaply. In Decemner I had a lingering upper respiratory infection, and (knowing nothing then of the virus pan-mania) I persuaded my physician to prescribe the azithromycin Z-pak course, which completely rid me of that infection in hours. Been well ever since.

In July, I had to have a molar extracted at the local hospital, for which they required a test for the virus. Result: no antibodies or indication of symptoms, though I have been out and about all during the masking era. And I am 83, daily doing carpentry and handyman work, climbing to the roof on ladders, painting, etc.

So, there; that's one anecdote supporting my opinion that should I get the virus, I would want the HCQ/Z-pak immediately. I don't know if my PhD in chemistry would help, but I would think so.

Woe to the attending physician that does not comply. There are malpractice lawyers to attend to that type of deficiency in treatment, even if by my progeny. Murder by virus is a charge that will be coming up soon, eh?

Hear this, you golden-agers like me!
