Two other tidbits about the report: The authors are heart specialists, not researchers involved in treating influenza or antiviral medications. These guys are qualified to talk about the risk of irregular heartbeats, but not about the benefits of the drug. Their results showed an increase in deaths for those using HCQ, but drew know conclusions about how or why that occurred. So basically, numbers going to number.

Also, the word "zinc" is not mentioned in the entirety of the text of the report. These guys have no idea how treatment with HCQ works.
