Be careful when giving advice to Gene. He might very well take that advice just to spite you. 

 

No, he only listens to liberals and follows everything they say.

it does for thousands of doctors and their patients using it treat the virus.

could be why the US health system is not being overrun with all of these new cases

 

for some reason, it just does not work in rigged in studies run by big pharma

 

Thousands of people swear by homeopathy.  Doesn't mean it works.

Yup.  Like I said, follow the (big pharma) money.  Bet a lot of them have tons of shares of Gilead. 

 

Sure, ok...does it work yet?  Did adding zinc do the trick?  I'm looking forward to this ending the pandemic that already ended.

Broken record.  Broken record.  Broken record. 

 

Tell your puppet masters to change it.

No *****, dude. I've been hearing about this cure for months. Some evidence would be nice. Is it too much to ask that the miracle cure to have some data behind it?

The believers keep bumping it with stories about how the man is trying to keep it down.

 

LOL!  Who are the ones who keep posting links to stories about studies that quickly become discredited?

Can't recall anyone in Trump Admin or through media calling it a cure.  The claims have been that it can somewhat reduce the severity and recovery time for some with the virus or have some preventative benefits..

Look at every recent bump in this thread. I know you're not concerned with facts, but really...

HCQ No Longer Approved Even a Little for COVID-19

— Study after study showed no benefit, and now the FDA has had enough

 

A letter from the agency to the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) detailed the FDA's concerns, including that suggested dosing regimens are "unlikely to produce an antiviral effect," and said "decreased viral shedding" from treatment with these drugs, noted in some observational studies, "has not been consistently replicated."

 

While current FDA guidelines did not recommend use of the drugs outside of a randomized clinical trial, the FDA also pointed to recent data from a large clinical trial showing no "evidence of benefit" for mortality, effect on hospital length of stay, or need for mechanical ventilation among COVID-19 patients treated with hydroxychloroquine.

The FDA originally granted an EUA to HCQ on March 28, 2020.

 

This may be the end for the controversial drug as COVID-19 therapy; study after study found no benefit in the drug among hospitalized patients or as post-exposure prophylaxis. It will remain available for its previously approved conditions, which include rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus as well as malaria, and can still be prescribed off-label at physicians' discretion. Without the EUA, however, third-party reimbursement may become harder to secure for COVID-19 cases, and malpractice litigation easier to win if patients suffer adverse events. Also, access to HCQ and CQ in the National Strategic Stockpile for use in COVID-19 patients will now end.

That is great news.

Remdesivir will work just fine

Kaletra will also work for you.

 

Good luck.

This is the HCQ thread.  You can start another for Remdesivir, which doesn't work very well either.

Cause science?  I mean Remdesivir seems to shorten hospital stays, maybe.  Not exactly a silver bullet.

 

HCQ seems to just make things worse, which is why it's being abandoned.

Have you actually read any of the scientific studies from these researchers, or do you just take abbreviated stories at face value taking solace in the fact that "scientists" were involved?

 

Why is the sky blue?

You can get a good look at a t-bone by sticking your head up a bull's ass, but I'd rather take the butcher's word for it.

 

Are you saying I'm wrong.  Does HCQ finally work now?

Yes it does work.

 

I don't have to stick my head up a bull's ass, when I know physicians in the military that gave me advice on it and have successfully treated it with HCQ and Zinc. Zero fatalities..

 

I take their advice over the FDA any day.

 

You can blindly follow the FDA's recommendation all you want, that is absolutely your right to choose what you think is best for you.

 

I and others will do the same.

 

I wonder the Chinese are doing to treat it.

 

Being such a trusted friend, I am sure that they will continue to help us with the "pandemic" they exported to the world.
