First off, my stepfather hates Trump second only to Hitler. His words. He and my mom rushed out and got both jabs as soon as they were available. I tried to convince her to wait on the vax but she would hear nothing of it.
Today, mom and I went to brunch and she asked why I was still not getting the jab. Well...I explained the reasons and showed her a few of the websites and articles you’d expect. Halfway through my explanation she started to panic and got a little tearful and started looking things up on her own phone. It’s heartbreaking. I dropped her off at her house and I can only imagine the conversation going on with my stepfather.
They tested HCQ in the UK without zinc. They work together, the HCQ is a zinc ionophore, it helps the zinc get into the cells. The zinc in the cells inhibits the replication of the virus.
They tested the HCQ without zinc* on purpose *to sabotage the trial
They also tested in in hospitalized patients. It's too late then. They should have tested within 48 hours of onset of symptoms. That's why all those "peer reviewed" randomized tests in hospitals were all bogus and they knew it. HCQ is like Tamiflu on the flu virus. It keeps the virus from replicating and getting worse. Once there's a certain level of viruses where you hit a threshold, Covid can get much worse. Up until that point HCQ is very effective.
