Zinc is mentioned in the study. Click on the text, do a CNTL-’f’ and search on ‘zinc’. It recommends a zinc supplement even though it was not part of the regimen being examined.
For most of the world that allows the media to crow that PDJT's mention of the HCQ "cocktail"as a possible cure for CV-19 POSITIVE patients fails.
Luckily, if you're suffering from syphilis, your Doc can write a 'scrip for penicillin, not just aspirin and vitamin C as your dementia (which possibly has already set in) would prevent you from remembering to get a 'scrip.
;-)
I have lots of suggestions for useless studies.
For instance, regardless of the medicine tested if you did not allow your double-blind patient on a placebo to breathe the patient would die. So would the test subject getting the "medicine".
Conclusion? Maybe if we let one half of them to breathe the meds would have worked.
Just a poke in your ribs for fun. Studies that ignore an established possible cure are worthless. Unless they could make billions. Then they're worth a lot!
Skip the ones that didn't work but investigate the ones with "ANECDOTAL" (based on science) success.
Any study that makes PDJT look stupid is priceless. For marxist media, hollywood, music/movie stars, unions and lib parties.
