I've always been suspicious of quacks... and when I heard Jerome Corsi's name come up in association with the guy, I knew something was up.
Me, too. Like the assholes who fed veterans one or two of the drugs but not the zinc, which is necessary to stop the viral action. That's the study after clicking from link to link to link to link that is being touted, and one which included the ionophore, but never the Zinc which interferes with the viral replication.
It was not a double blind FDA study either.
From
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/21/coronavirus-second-wave-hydroxychloroquine-trial An article which quotes the head of the CDC (an agency which has made a mess of all this, too)
Also on Tuesday, a malaria drug frequently touted by Trump for treating Covid-19 showed no benefit in a large analysis of its use in US veterans hospitals. There were more deaths among those given hydroxychloroquine than those given standard care, researchers reported.
First off, those given Standard care were mild cases. Only the most severe got the medication (Those most likely to die). But they didn't even get all of it, because the Zinc Sulfate was left out every time.
So a bunch of veterans, administered the hydroxychloroquine but not the ion it was supposed to get into the cells, at a late stage in the disease were killed by improper medication.
I hate to say it, but sadly, that is likely not a first--especially with the VA.
It may have been a large analysis, but the drug regimen was not properly administered to the patients, the patients it was administered to were in very bad shape already, while the regimen of hydroxychloroquine/Zithromax/Zinc Sulfate is something best administered earlier in the onset of the disease to stop damage from occurring, not late after the damage is done.
Other studies say different from the VA "analysis" and the CDC, which rapidly falls back on requiring study constraints it itself did not apply to its own 'study' to discredit the "anecdotal evidence":

American Association of Physicians and Surgeons Says Hydroxychloroquine Helpfulhttps://www.rightnowmn.org/american_associan_of_physicians_and_surgeons_says_hydroxychloroquine_helpfulHydroxychloroquine Has about 90 Percent Chance of Helping COVID-19 Patientshttps://aapsonline.org/hcq-90-percent-chance/Other ionophores are discussed, but the available, effective, and cheap one is hydroxychloroquine.
But, scanning those articles, where are they coming from and where are they going to?
They are pushing for the vaccine. The vaccine which does not exist, has been already estimated to likely be no more than 60% effective if and when it does, and because of the mutation rate of the virus, will only grow less effective.
The medical industry has no interest in a cure, especially a cheap and readily available cure. There is no profit in taking a handful of pills that cost about $20 and wiping the bug out. Hell, there isn't even anything to patent.
A vaccine will make a fortune for the guy who is funding the WHO, which lied for the Chinese, who was in tighter than bedbugs with Google, who owns YouTube which is scrubbing videos which don't agree with the W.H.O., which profit motive or not, has already proven it doesn't know crap.
I, too, could "prove" just about anything to be wrong if I did flawed 'studies' on it (1 "study"), had a bunch of corrupted PhDs to stand up and say "SEE!", and the power to scrub dissent from the media.
That's beginning to look a lot like the Climate Change game to me, another of the UN bag of tricks.
Defense number one has always been to brand the dissent as "crackpots" or otherwise discredit them.
Just sayin'
@jmyrlefuller The Guardian says:
Rampant disinformation, partisan news sources and social media's tsunami of fake news are no bases on which to inform the American public in 2020. We believe every one of us deserves equal access to fact-based news and analysis.
While there is a lot of truth in that statement, I don't necessarily point those fingers in the same direction as The Guardian.
If you chase the use of fake news and partisan news sources in this, they have made a muddle of everything, and they have almost all been leaning heavily in the same direction.
That's why I chased the use of hydroxychloroquine in the journals (scientific publications) just as I have pursued likely origins of the virus itself (not a 'wet market' like the Guardian says) through scientific publications.
Zinc is a known viral replication inhibitor. Hydroxychloroquine acts as an ionophore and transports the zinc through the cell membranes into the Type 1 pneumocytes, which keeps them from being destroyed. Macrolide antibiotics like Azithromycin not only fight bacterial infection, but mute the immune response, helping prevent a cytokine storm--the overactive immune response that can kill the patient.
Ionophores other than hydroxychloroquine have been discussed in the journals as well, but hydroxychloroquine is available, cheap, effective (if the ions are there to transport), off the shelf, and has a long history of being prescribed for longer terms for other maladies, so it is well known in terms of dosages and side effects. We're talking a five day course, here, not years of medication.
But it seems mentioning other ionophores here would only have the CDC, AMA, WHO, and their masters chasing down that information in an effort to discredit the basis for which they are used by not administering the source of the Zinc ions that they transport, in order to promote nonexistent vaccines and perpetuate both the outbreak and the economic devastation it has unleashed.
