Harvey A. Risch, MD, PhD , Professor of Epidemiology, Yale School of Public Health writes that
hydroxychloroquine is inexpensive, safe, and works, and he urges health providers and officials to use it.
Sweden and Norway have been treating their Covid patients with a related remedy since last spring. NYC has also been using it. It's very effective, they say, along with Vitamin C intravenously.
One of them mentioned the guy from Yale, which is why I'm putting it here.
These doctors are very upset that there is an attempt to prevent them from prescribing hydroxychloroquine. In fact, there is an attempt to even prevent them from speaking about it, as social media platforms have already begun removing their press conference.
Extremely high doses of the drug were given to extremely sick people, and they died. That is not surprising.
Much lower doses, given to people who are not at death's door, have been very successful. One of the doctors said that she has treated 350 covid patients with it, and they are all alive. (Her patients include high-risk and elderly people.) She is upset that political games are being played while people die. She said if she runs into problems because of what she is doing, she is going to do it anyway, because she is saving lives, and she is not going to watch people die while awaiting results of more studies.
Hydroxychloroquine has been used for something like 50 years for several conditions. It is considered a very safe drug, even by the WHO, until doctors started using it for covid-19.
And yet CNN was reporting even a dose or two would kill you? I wonder why?
I have taken more thousands of these pills over my lifetime when overseas in Malaria areas and guess what, I'm not writing this from my crypt.
Will extremely high dosages at one time, or dosages given to someone almost dead from the Wuhan virus kill a person or help him on his way? Maybe. But early in the sickness, it sure is worth a try.
I would guess someone somewhere might be alergic to the drug; however, I have know of thousands of people who took the drug like I did in the same places I worked, and personally knew hundreds of them. That also includes when I was told to take them in 'Nam many moons ago.
If I was diagnosed with the Wuhan virus, that is the fiurst thing I would ask my Doctor to do; prescribe me hydroxychloroquine.

The problem is that its been studied several times. There is no evidence that taking hydroxychloroquine reduces the severity of Covid 19. The link I'm citing to the New England Journal of Medicine details a recent study of hospitalized patients. The drug was used both with and without the antibiotic that is commonly known as z-pac.
Its time to stop arguing about hydroxychloroquine. The scientific research we have says that it does not work. Every minute spent trying to justify its use is time that could be spent researching a medication that might actually be effective in treating coronavirus.
