More doctors are seeing success with Hydroxychloroquine and Zinc Sulphate in treating Coronavirus patients

As mainstream media continues to downplay the effectiveness of malaria drug hydroxychloroquine as an unproven drug, more doctors are reportedly seeing success with hydroxychloroquine and Zinc Sulphate in treating coronavirus patients. One of those doctors is Los Angeles, California-based doctor said he is seeing significant success in prescribing the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine in combination with zinc to treat patients with severe symptoms of COVID-19, according to a report from ABC News.

Dr. Anthony Cardillo, CEO of Mend Urgent Care, says “Every patient I’ve prescribed it to has been very, very ill and within 8 to 12 hours, they were basically symptom-free,” Cardillo said in an interview Sunday with KABC-TV. “So, clinically I am seeing a resolution.” He added that combining the drug with zinc has been the key to the success. The hydroxychloroquine, he said, “opens the zinc channel” allowing the zinc to enter the cell, which then “blocks the replication of cellular machinery.”

Dr. Anthony Cardillo, who is the CEO of Mend Urgent Care, which has locations in Sherman Oaks, Van Nuys and Burbank, said he has seen very promising results when prescribing hydroxychloroquine in combination with zinc for the most severely-ill COVID-19 patients. However, he said using hydroxychloroquine does not work.

Dr. Cardillo is not alone. Over the past two weeks, we also told you about other doctors who have seen positive results using a combination of hydroxychloroquine, Zinc and azithromycin. For example, Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, a board-certified family practitioner in New York, successfully treated 699 coronavirus patients using the same drug regimen. Also, results of the first 62 patient randomized clinical trial show hydroxychloroquine helps coronavirus patients improve. Dr. Marlow Hernandez, the CEO of Cano Health, also said he has found some preliminary early success with hydroxycholoquine among coronavirus patients in hospitals in Florida. “Hydroxychloroquine is an important weapon in our arsenal,” he said.

Hydroxychloroquine has long been used for treatment of malaria and conditions such as lupus and arthritis. On March 30, the FDA issued emergency use authorization of anti-malaria drug Hydroxychloroquine for treatment of coronavirus patients. The FDA is encouraging trials and has provided limited emergency authorization for its use to treat COVID-19 patients.

“Every patient I’ve prescribed it to has been very, very ill and within 8 to 12 hours, they were basically symptom-free,” Cardillo told Eyewitness News. “So clinically I am seeing a resolution.”

He said he has found it only works if combined with zinc. The drug, he said, opens a channel for the zinc to enter the cell and block virus replication. He added that the drug should not be prescribed for those who are presenting only mild symptoms, as there are concerns about shortages for patients with other conditions who need to take the drug on a regular basis.

“We have to be cautious and mindful that we don’t prescribe it for patients who have COVID who are well,” Cardillo said. “It should be reserved for people who are really sick, in the hospital or at home very sick, who need that medication. Otherwise we’re going to blow through our supply for patients that take it regularly for other disease processes.”

Thanks for posting the the letter from Dr. Zelenko. I will print it and save it to show my M.D. should the need arise.

Layman’s description:

The hydroxychloroquine cracks the “egg shells” of the COVID-19 virus so the zinc can stab the embryo (nucleus) inside virus in the heart.

What needs to be done immediately before more Americans get infected and lung damaged is to administer the treatment protocol to all infected Americans and administer maintenance doses to everyone else. Then we can all go back to work and rebuild America and make the country great again. It’s a no brainer. Let’s get on with it!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Exactly right.

Thats our way back out of all this crap.

Zinc has always worked on colds. I start sucking on zinc lozenges one after another as soon as I feel a sore throat until I taste metal. The cold is usually gone once the sore throat ends, never gets to my ears or chest and there’s no healing time from any infection damage. Only side effect is an upset stomach for a day. The ads say the zinc keeps the cold virus from spreading inside and infecting new cells.

The doctor’s warning about running out of HCQ and zinc is wrong. There are millions of dosages of HCQ available and only half a million with the virus.

The problem with HCQ is that there is likely only a small production beyond what is used to treat several (chronic?) diseases, and like a great many things only a limited ability to ramp up production in a short period of time. As for Zinc, if Zinc sulfate is in shortage, I am sure any number of other zinc compounds will work well enough, i.e. just take a zinc containing multi-vitamin. I do know that there are some conditions for which one or both of HCQ and Z-pack are contra-indicated. As for Zinc I am sure there are several Zinc compounds that are not recommended, beyond Zinc picrate which like all metal picrates has a blast turning its container in to small pieces all over the room it was stored in.

just remember, if it is working, they are still crediting our “social distancing” for all the better results.

” ...How hard is it to treat a patient with this, take a count of how much COVID is in their blood before treatment... “


SARS-CoV-2 is not a blood born virus. There is no evidence that this virus enters and circulates in the bloodstream. It is primarily* a respiratory virus infecting the mucus membrane tissues of the nasal cavity, trachea, and lungs. That is why all current tests for infection do not use blood samples. *Note: There has been some evidence that COVID-19 may also infect the gut causing nausea and diarrhea, along with detection of virus in feces.

Anyway, I agree that with thousands of hospitalized patients, we should be doing more to try all the combinations of HCQ + antibiotics + zinc (along with the other drug candidates)to see if there are significantly good results. We really don’t have time for scientifically pure trials that can take months to complete...
