HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE- QUICK FACTS FROM AMERICA’S FRONTLINE DOCTORS:
PREVENTION
- THE CONTROVERSIAL DRUG HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE (HCQ) HAS BEEN UNFAIRLY SMEARED, BY THE WHO, CDC, NIH AND THE MEDIA.
- HOWEVER HCQ HAS VERY FIRM SUPPORT FROM, AMONGST OTHERS: PROFESSOR HARVEY RISCH EPIDEMIOLOGIST FROM YALE, THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS (AAPS), AMERICAN FRONTLINE DOCTORS, THE HENRY FORD HEALTH SYSTEM AND PROFESSOR DIDIER RAOULT MICROBIOLOGIST AND INFECTIOUS DISEASE SPECIALIST - TO NAME BUT A FEW. (1)
- THE LANCET WAS EVEN FORCED TO RETRACT A STUDY ON HCQ AFTER IT WAS REVEALED BY THE GUARDIAN NEWSPAPER THAT THEY HAD BEEN COMPLETELY FABRICATED AND WRITTEN BY A SCI-FI WRITER AND A PORN STAR. EVEN FOLLOWING THIS ASTOUNDING REVELATION HCQ WAS STILL BANNED IN MOST COUNTRIES. (2)
- HCQ ACCORDING TO AAPS HAS A NINETY PER CENT (90%) CURE RATE WHEN GIVEN EARLY AND ALONGSIDE ZINC (3)
- HCQ IS SAFER THAN MANY OVER THE COUNTER DRUGS SUCH AS ASPIRIN, BENADRYL AND TYLENOL.
- THE AAPS ALSO POINT OUT THAT THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A VACCINE AS SAFE AS HCQ. (4)
- HCQ HAS BEEN LICENSED FOR OVER SIXTY YEARS AND HAS BEEN SAFELY USED BY BILLIONS OF PEOPLE WORLDWIDE. THERE IS A VERY SMALL RISK OF ARRYTHMIA WHICH IS EASILY MONITORED.
- WHY WAS HCQ BANNED THEN? COULD IT BE THAT THERE ARE NO HUGE PROFITS TO BE MADE FROM THIS OUT-OF-PATENT DRUG?
- HCQ WAS USED TO GREAT EFFECT IN THE SARS OUTBREAK OF 2005 (5)
- IN SHORT HAD HCQ BEEN AVAILABLE THEN THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN A PANDEMIC !
PREVENTION
- PREVENTATIVE MEASURES SUCH AS HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE OR VITAMINS D, C AND ZINC SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECOMMENDED FOR THE PUBLIC. (1)
- EARLY CALCIFEDIOL (25-HYDROXYVITAMIN D) TREATMENT TO HOSPITALIZED COVID-19 PATIENTS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED INTENSIVE CARE UNIT ADMISSIONS (2)
- VIT D REDUCES THE SEVERITY OF COVID. (2,3)
- VOLUNTARY ISOLATION OF THE FRAIL - SHOULD THEY SO CHOOSE; IN COMBINATION WITH PREVENTATIVE MEASURES WOULD HAVE BEEN A FAR BETTER STRATEGY. THE REST OF SOCIETY COULD AND SHOULD HAVE CONTINUED AS NORMAL.
