Less than 2x flu is covid ifr
With the results of this study it is almost certainly back on the table. It is said to prevent the cytokine storm that essentially burns down the house trying to protect you. If you wait until the house is already smoldering to administer, it will be of no use, obviously.
The reason this drug became a thing for COVID in the first place is because the Chinese were noticing they were not getting any Lupus patients in their ICU's. Obviously they were already on hydroxychloriquine upon infection.
What you're saying is that it should be used as a prophylactic, instead of treatment, which is why it has been tested quite a bit on medical personnel, but that's not what the study claims.
That said, I have zero problems with doing further studies on this drug, tbh... and as we can see, there's studies still ongoing. Any tool you can add to the arsenal to fight this thing is welcome.

I'm sure its going to be written off completely and will trigger some people.
Noooo not Jimmie!
The F1 boys are back at it this weekend as well. Plenty of masks but saw very little social distancing.
It's hard to keep pit crews distanced when your job is not to be. This will end up the same.

Keep the studies coming, tbh... it should be noted that Todaro jumped the gun with at least the Sinai one...
Due to the inherent limitations of our retrospective study design, there was no conclusive determination on the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine in patients with COVID-19.
That's right there on the paper. Also, the first study only encompasses 141 patients.
Like I said, this is the most scrutinized and tested drug against covid at this time, which makes it kind of weird we continue to see such diverging results and conclusions, tbh... (and by that I don't mean I'm skeptic, just genuinely curious what's that due to).
Not necessarily a prophylactic because I don't think it totally prevents it, but I do think it prevents, in some cases, less severity of symptoms.
The problem is there is no way to predict who's immune system is more prone to self destruct. So we don't know who to administer the drug on. My wife takes it for RA and it's potent...can make you go blind, so obvious risk involved.
And I agree. Maybe a tail of this drug + Zinc + Remdesivir + The steroid + VIT D ultimately becomes the norm in treating this virus.
Biggest difference in studies seem to be addition of zinc and stage of sickness delivered. Whatever the works is great. I’ll never understand the rooting against certain remedies...not saying you have.
A shot of Lysol a day keeps the doctor at bay
Lol but all the protestors were keeping 6 feet, not talkIng, and wearing masks! Thats how peaceful protests work!
Again, support the protest. But the hypocrisy for closing beaches is crazy not to mention absent of science.
The hard right still claims Trump didn't actually say that, or mean that
If he was being sarcastic then he is the greatest actor of all time.
Hey, good news if it can be repeated.
Hopefully that's in time for SnakeBoy.
He never said e.
Fake news.
IIRC, the combo with Zinc has been in the mix since the start. At least, I recall people mentioning it here way back when.
Even if it proves not to be as effective as other drugs, you always want to build up your toolbox. Just like there's some people that can't take this due to vision/hearth side-effects, there will be people that can't take other drugs for the same reason.
Az ca and tx have an ifr of less than flu. But but but
It has been in the mix, but the biggest studies released declaring it ineffective didn’t include it from what I remember.
Actually, some of the newer studies are using combos with drugs like Azithromycin, which are also under trial to verify their efficacy standalone.
the key is to keep the acquired immune system from overreacting, which is why immuno-suppresants are being used.
same drugs are used in auto-immune diseases, esp extreme cases.
When Trash pimped HCQ, he caused shortages, which caused lupus victims to find none of it, and/or pay exorbitant prices.
Lupus can be very hard to diagnose since the symptoms can be extremely varies,
just like they are finding that C19 immune attacks are causing all kinds of weird and varying symptoms.
Spurstalk is hilarious because of the above. Once they are proven wrong about the significance of something they move right on to the subsidies and try to gossip
HCQ probably works because it is a zinc ionophore. Quercetin can do the same.
The moment I show symptoms of this, I have mass doses of C, zinc, and quercetin.
I'm already on 2000 IU of vit. D daily.
I think I already had covid in March, but, whatever.
nobody forget that the docs stopped using HCQ cause it was not saving people, but killing them
This disease is a Nothingburger for some, but deadly for others.
