HIV =/= SARS COVID. Like I said, it's totally plausible, and I am hopeful, but we don't have the evidence that it works for this virus yet. This shit is complicated. Promising results from a tiny non-randomized trial in France + a letter from a Hassidic Jewish doctor are awesome, and I'm not that concerned of the one RCT showing ineffectiveness in China, but the jury is still very much out IMO.
Yes, but they have also done studies where viral load in HIV patients were reduced. Its in the same linked report. So it is more than promising.
