$10 says he was given the chloroquine cocktail

jrgreen73 84 points ago +86 / -2

Most likely. It was offered to him by the Trump Administration. Johnson’s spokesman said the offer by the Americans was turned down. But that statement may have been for public consumption and not necessarily what really happened.

Britain was the original empire to colonize all the shitholes where Malaria is abundant, I would hope they have their own stash.

I think the dose is far too small to be medically effective. But maybe if that's all you drank ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah, real tonic water should make a comeback...

...and real gin too! (It actually is at the moment).

8
LugNuts 8 points ago +9 / -1

Real tonic without a bunch of corn syrup in it too. Tastes like shit, way too sweet, ruins good Gin. There are novelty/specialty brands in decent liquor stores that are way better than the shit from the soda-pop companies.

I'm going to laugh my ass off is chugging a bunch of tonic water and some zinc supplements is even semi-viable as treatment for the Made In China Virus. Talk about low quality!

If this were true, not true Brit would have succumbed to the disease.

Drinking hot tea to reduce chance of virus is an old wive's tale.

Aquamine-Amarine 1 point ago +1 / -0

You joke but tea does have health benefits! It might not be strong enough to cure you of the Chinese virus, but it works for other things. Sore throat, cramps, constipation, etc.

Cold iced green tea (with lemon) = perfect to flush the toxins out after a hangover...

...learned this after many a night carousing in Japan, and their abundant vending machines.

I’m convinced half the reason the British Empire was able to colonize half the entire globe was boiling water to make tea.

TerraHertz 10 points ago +10 / -0

Yes. Even if only by applying the usually-fatal overpressure ventilator with little or no added oxygen protocol. Rips the lungs apart. It really does sound like someone got him onto the HCQ, thankfully. But don't stop worrying yet. He's still in hospital and the Leftist/Globalists still want him dead.

Boris should come out and say just because he got better after taking hydrochloroquine doesn’t mean that others should take it.

Still suspicious they either put him into the ICU when he didn't need it or gave him something to worsen his condition to be put into the ICU, since on april 3rd he made a video that he was recovering and feeling fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC2EsqkiYzU

Block_Helen 4 points ago +4 / -0

Username checks out. :)

I think they said at the time he was hospitalized because his doctor wanted him to be near an ICU so he could get care quickly if he needed it. It does happen that CV patients can be feeling better and then relapse.

Also, he's the prime minister of Great Britain and there is way too much riding on his health for any chances to be taken. For that reason alone it made sense to take extra precautions.

Call me cynical if you like, but I hope it was a genuine recovery and not a drama created for/by the media where he would have been placed into ICU as a precaution and wasn't really at risk of dying. Nigel Farage said he wasn't doing well so that tends to make me trust it - but you never know these days. Cue the, "I've had this terrible virus so now I know that extreme measures are warranted" statements...

...and thank God for answering everyone's prayers.

Block_Helen 3 points ago +3 / -0

They actually said at the time of his hospitalization that it was a precaution, so that he could get care quickly if he needed it. Seems like he may have been in rougher shape than he thought - but not so bad that it became dire. Thank God, as you say.
