Just why Zithromax may disrupt the replications of the RNA COVID-19 virus may be that it alters ribosome function in some way inhibiting the virus infected cell from producing messenger RNA that is critical for the virus to replicate.

Sort of what I was speculating, without the technical education.

It is definitely, then, due to the combo, as the hydroxychloroquine opens the virus in order for the zithromax to access the RNA.

Pretty much the same unlocking process allows zinc to affect the virus directly. Probably a more direct process?

Early on, retrovirals were tried, due likely to the presence of HIV genetic strands. Can I speculate that the retrovirals also work better in combo w/hydroxychloroquine?

Thank you. I assumed, from the lack of any other responses, that this process is still only speculaation. No doubt specific experiments will be performed and eventually we’ll know exactly how it all works.

Plaquenil (hydrochloroquine) raises lysomal Ph in antigen-presenting cells from 4 to 6.
