RIP. I liked him.
He should have been more honest or at least more quiet about his affair, and he could have been president. To future candidates: your sex life is not our business (unless it’s illegal). Either admit it as one of your failings and you’ve grown, or tell questioners that stuff is not worth discussing and it’s none of their business. Either of those are the correct responses.
I’m sad Herman Cain has passed.
Herman Cain was a beautiful man with a beautiful soul and a heart of gold..I unfortunately knew this day would come..you stay in the hospital for almost 1 month with this virus, 90 percent chance you dont come out alive. Not sure why they did not give him hydroxy, maybe he went into the hospital when the symptoms were already too far gone and they just put him on a ventilator..I will miss you forever Herman, I will never forget you RIP sweet angel
RIP
If he had won in 2012, he would have just died in office at the end of his second term. Useless factiod, I know, just musing.
..great American. He had multiple health issues over the years. Covid gets the credit no matter what these days...
Was he given HCQ prior to his death?
Hydroxychloroquine plus Zinc blunt (but do not completely erase) the effects of SARS-2-CoV upon, and within, a human cell.
Thereby, Hydroxychloroquine plus Zinc blunt (but do not absolutely erase 100 percent of the time) the ability of SARS-2-CoV to use a human cell as a host mechanism for replicating SARS-2-CoV.
Such that, Hydroxychloroquine plus Zinc are akin to a good (but not perfect) barrage of FLAK across human cell mechanism paths taken by SARS-2-CoV.
Hydroxychloroquine plus Zinc "works" better, when used earlier, but is not necessarily utterly useless when given late in the infection - when other therapy is not available.

Zinc
If you cannot get Hydroxychloroquine, you still help yourself by regular Zinc intake via typical Once-a-Day multi-vitamins.
If you get COVID-19, your body will use more Zinc.
Along with other "stuff going on," a significantly lower amount of Zinc - in your case - can be a contributing factor to a noticeable lower sense of taste and/or smell.
When you try to eat something, during COVID-19 (you are, let's say, toughing it out and doing OK at home), you may think, "this meal really does not taste like it should; there must be something wrong with the food." You just marked one of COVID-19's symptoms. Eventually, you catch on that your sense of taste is "the something wrong."
Famotidine
Famotidine (egs. Pepcid) also helps, because Famotidine frustrates the "efforts" by SARS-2-CoV to attach itself via human cell ACE2 receptors (actually, the "receptors" are enzymes).
Side Effects of Hydroxychloroquine
Taking Hydroxychloroquine is how you may discover that you are in the lower percentage of people who experience, for example, a bit of an eye nervous system reaction (in some cases, retinopathy).
Speaking for a friend who used another (and much older) of "the quines," in order to treat a jungle bug many years ago, said friend experienced an eye nervous system problem "just a few hours" after taking the first pill. (No recollection of that dosage, "but it was big.")
Friend now tells me, that friend would not discourage other people's use of present-day Hydroxychloroquine. "Because it will work for most people."
My friend had a history of a unique and rare liver problem, such that - in friend's case - friend's liver was weak specifically in the area regarding the metabolism of an old member of "the quines."
That caused a buildup of acetyl-something-ase in the liver, above normal levels, that, in friend's blood stream, was too high a concentration and thereby somewhat "attacked" various nerves -- showing the most, along the nerve "cable" to, and some parts within, friend's eyes.
Friend reports that stopping "that old quine," resulted in eye performance returning to normal within "just a few hours."
