That's quinine, which is a completely different malaria drug, and modern tonic water only has a very low concentration of it anyway. Otherwise you'd need a prescription for it.
Also it's really important to bear in mind that it's extremely easy to kill viruses, bacteria and cancer cells "in vitro" (meaning "in a petri dish"). Usually the challenging part is delivering the drug to the right parts of the body, intact and in a sufficient quantity, without doing too much collateral damage. People shouldn't jump to the conclusion that something is a wonder drug if there haven't been large-scale human trials yet. I only skimmed the OP because gish gallop, but it mostly seems to be in vitro stuff.
The pharma industry is incredibly shitty and they constantly lie about their products and potential competing products, but I wish people wouldn't just believe every alternative perspective they hear. I mean, I'm sorry, but the idea that tonic water is a miracle cure-all is stupider than anything I've ever heard from any pharma company spokesperson.
You can't get close to the dosage that you'd get in HCQ. Need to drink all morning and night!

Are you in the country of communists and tiananmen square?
Grandpa's medicine was actually medicine!!!!
Is it really?
I wish I could find some WITHOUT sugar, corn syrup, etc. A package store might have it but I haven't wanted to go there as yet.
Yes, thank you. However, the "diet" versions are neurotoxic. Can't go THERE either.....
