Yup. Too late, the cat's outa the bag. Funny how normies can get "authorized" information better than authorized organizations nowadays! Good luck trying to get the Orange Man back in bed!

Hydroxychloroquine only works when combined with zinc.
All the field doctors who are using it have stated this openly and clearly, again and again.

HCQ stoks may be exhausting, its use in Malaria, first indication, was hampered from resistances and toxicity, Use in Rheumatology may adress a population of lesser size. Could deviation of HCQ from Lupus and other inflammatory diseases to Covid-19 force Rheumatologists to more expensive drugs?
PMID 32277367 and PMID 32338155 have somehow contradictory views on Hydroxychloroquine en Covid-19. Blessings +

When a reputable organization like The Lancet has lowered itself to publishing un-reviewed reports, you can easily imagine the extend of corruption in all the different sectors of the government. It's not a swamp, it's a bottomless pit.

Was there less infection in the placebo receivers, as against no 'medication'? Did the placebo actually work for anyone? That is the interesting question.

Robt, you're absolutely right about the zinc.

It is difficult to not be cynical about any "Medical" Journal these days. I prefer to review "UpToDate", which is unbiased and not supported by a biased political interest.

The Lancet gets its funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

That foundation has been very "pro-democratic" and "anti-republican" (I know - huge irony, right) in many of its statements and activities.

It is therefore reasonable to question the validity of anything published by the Lancet, where Billionaires and their "Foundations" can pressure a Medical Journal to retract a publication as an exercise in political activism.

Hydroxychloroquine used with Azithromycin and Zinc has been used successfully in treatment of patients with Covid19. The drug was never meant to be used as a preventative measure but as a viable and valid treatment method. The for the most part the main stream media does not support this finding as they would then be siding with President Trump and God forbid that should ever happen even when it is the truth. So they say it doesn't work in the PREVENTION only.

I thought the basis for the prevention hypothesis was finding that preexisting users of HCQ were observed to have lower infection rates. The U Minn cohort were all exposed before the first dose.

When scientific journals and such started refusing to publish papers which disagreed with their agendas, SCIENCE lost heavily. This is a direct result of the politicization of science, folks. The religion called "Global Warming/Climate Change/Tipping Point" seems to be the point at which science lost to politics. Congrats.
