Her illness reached a breaking point on March 31, which happened to be the same day she took the COVID-19 test. She had already...

I’ve been thinking about Covid-19, the lock-down/quarantine, and the debate over using these drugs like hydroxychloroquine to treat it. Some say don’t use the drugs, some say it’s 100% effective. I started looking up other uses of this particular medication and there have been some trials where hydroxychloroquine is effective in treating cancer cells. Imagine if this drug has been KNOWN to effectively treat cancer, but for decades has been hidden from us so that the entire “cancer” industry can continue to profit?!?! Q has alluded to such a possibility. Perhaps we should be delving in more and questioning. Maybe...
