‘Only a one in 17 billion chance hydroxychloroquine doesn’t work’: medical professor | Sky News AustraliaAbout Ivermectin and HCQ+Azithromycin (and other compliments to HCQ because alone it is not effective [enough] alone) and and how governments will be treated badly by history for not acting on what was so obviously true.
[edit] my first post and the link didn't seem to stick (I see can't link and post text at the same time)

Having taken chloroquine and experienced the side effects, I would be extremely hesitant to take HCQ if it was offered. I'd much prefer to use quercetin for a similar effect (zinc ionophore) along with ivermectin (much, much, much safer than HCQ).

In February or March after reading about HCQ elongating QT I went to my cardiologist and he did a 12 point heart exam and conformed my QT interval is normal and can handle some elongation. I also ran my 23andMe data through Promethese to check G6PD gene and I'm not contra indicated for HCQ. The QT elongation is not usually an issue unless you take another medication that elongates it or its long already. G6PD is quite uncommon too. The negative press on it is a bit exaggerated because of a few edge cases. HCQ is given a lot for decades so why is it now an issue? Fear and poor news reporting is what I say, and not any conspiracy.

HCQ is just a zinc ionophore, it is not an anti-viral
The biggest problem with it is it causes heart issues in a great many people which is what makes it not worth it.
On the other hand ivermectin is ridiculously safe and actually has proven anti-viral and anti-IL6 action.

Fear and poor news reporting is what I say, and not any conspiracy. HCQ is most effective if taken with something else such as Azythromycin. I first thought that Az was effective because of secondary bacterial infection but it actually appears to work well with HCQ to inhibit viral replication (viral replication, I think). Go to r/Ivermectin or Google and search "17 billion in one chance HCQ does not work"

I wouldn't touch HCQ if I was dying. And I was. And I have a 6 lead EKG with a doctor who can review the data.
Why would you mess with HCQ when you have Ivermectin.
