When this is over, the policy instituted by Democratic governors that does not allow primary care physicians to prescribe hydroxychloroquine in the earliest stages of the disease will be found to be the cause of much death and suffering. Unless hydroxychloroquine/Zithromax/zinc is prescribed early , its effectiveness diminishes. Early means fever and cough in this setting. If the patients are delayed this treatment until they develop shortness of breath, actual pneumonitis and a confirmatory COVID-19 test result, they are more likely to decline, require hospitalization and die. These governors must be held accountable.
