Im pretty sure HCQ is just sulphur magnesium and zinc, I could be wrong. This was very common potion making back in the day.

No magnesium, the HCQ sulfate prescription drug is "18 atoms of Carbon,28 atoms of hydrogen, 1 atom of Chlorine,5 atoms of oxygen, and 1 atom of sulfur".

Contains NO ZINC. I believe there are two misconceptions rooted in ignorance that might even afflict doctors who just haven't done enough research,

(1) Upon hearing that HCQ is a ZINC ionophore they might presume it contains and supplements ZINC (it does not)...

and (2) Azithromycin likewise contains NO ZINC despite a 'Z' in the name and a dangerously confusing brand name "Z-pack", also various misleading abbreviations of it on the Internet "A-Z, AZ, Z-pack" which lead hasty readers into thinking a trialed or prescribed drug regimen (somehow) includes ZINC.

When in fact the lack of ZINC presence or even mention in literature is tragic or suspicious. I think these misconceptions may have already had a significant human cost. I pose that simple undiagnosed ZINC depletion and Vitamin D deficiency in patients may have contributed to more death than the disease 'co-morbidities' that appear on checklists.
