More info is always better but NY's trial started less than 6 days ago. It was thought that it took 6 days to recover on HCQ. So it seems likely that the 5 that haven't recovered yet are exactly that - still infected and haven't recovered yet. After 6 days how many of them will recover? Even if it takes all 5 20 days to become virus free that's excellent results with the "Trump cocktail."

God forbid 3 of the remaining 5 infected people should die, that would still chop the fatality rate down to .5%, while reducing the recovery time to about 1/3. With 0 side effects!

No matter how you might classify results like that, still well worth doing! Ends scary pandemic with no cure, leaving it as nasty flu.

I really look forward to reading all the details of the study; controls, methodology, etc. Hopefully it's a well designed study. Hopefully they're transparent with the details.

Tougher to study possible preventative use of this drug. It'll be nice when we have enough supply to try that ...

Its not really Trumps cocktail as if he was the first person to tout this, more like the doctors in france, but i get your point.

I'd say Raoult ignited a small fire and Trump crashed an oil supertanker on it. You can't deny it really gained traction only when Trump shouted about it.

Ok. China knew chloroquine would work against this 15 years ago, and hid it from the world.

Add z pack to it and the effectiveness apparently doubles. Was the guy in France the first one to try it?

Amazing that you've been on HCQ! I've read that a preventative dose is .5g per week. How does that compare?

My point is that after SARS, they knew HCQ works on this type of thing. At least 8 Chinese Drs tried to warn the world of this outbreak, and China silenced them. They're now all dead.

Those Drs surely knew HCQ will cure. China covered up the whole thing. We even had western officials telling us human to human transmission wasn't possible. Then of course when DJT announced we have a cure, MSM claimed that was "false hope."

China could have greatly reduced this whole mess in a number of ways, even after it got out.

Congratulations on staying alive, btw. I'm sure you know the history that wasn't a sure thing not so long ago.

Thank you for posting your experience! What I really mean to say is after SARS China discovered HCQ works in this particular application. And at least 8 Chinese Drs tried to warn the world of the outbreak very early, and surely they knew the cure. And China silenced them. They're all dead. China could've greatly reduced it in any number of ways, even after it got out. They didn't.

The only thing I ever knew about Lupus was from watching Lorenzo's Oil. I bet you're more familiar with that than I am. Do you know if it's a true story? Is it talking about HCQ, or something else?

Oh, and congratulations on surviving!

We hide it. Notice this is a .gov website and the study is from 05.

No, but he was the first person to start documenting it and experimenting with it. He recommended adding the z-pack and some zinc.

Cool. He's the #1 contagious disease specialist in the world. I have no idea how such a thing is determined, but I'm good with it :)

I wonder how our national supply of z pack is? Any domestic production?

He carried the torch of it while being ridiculed (as usual) by our media.
