while it MIGHT work, there really isn't a good reason to hype it like Trump was doing this early in the process.

making it harder for medical professionals to get them. There will be a black market for them by Monday, not to mention counterfeit drugs all over the internet.

Trump was pushing at his press conference. Don't have the link handy, but it was scary.

The HCQ is the common malaria medicine.

It could very well help those that are not in critical condition.

I have taken both of those drugs in the past. It is possible that it could knock out the virus where it has not embedded deep into the lungs.

Of course, there would need to be tests and experiments done before anything could be declared definite, in my opinion.

Do know Teva Corp based in Israel makes the Malaria Drug which will not work,but does Trump have a family interest in this? Or his pal Bibi? Trump does nothing without a angle.
