Not the same if you know the people as friends and not political operatives getting money for spewing the party line, who are educated specialists.....caring, intelligent, diligent, and wise.....
I have made a practice of believing people I know and trust, and not believing people who read things on the internet and fashion themselves as experts.
And I especially don't believe people who are normally rational, but have gone off the deep end of irrationality and conspiracy nonsense who post on this very forum.
IOW, I trust people who actually know what they're talking about, and don't fall for any stuff just because I read it on a FB meme..........which is why I'm not either gullible or emotionally unhinged about what's going on now, and am not now, nor ever have been susceptible to groupthink on ANY subject.
Reality is the name of the game, and that's where I choose to dwell.....
Have fun in your reality.
Reality is the only thing really against the HCQ/Z-Pack/Zinc Sulfate regimen is the "analysis" of the disaster perpetrated at a VA hospital by not giving the Zinc supplement. The "anecdotal" accounts of doctors who had good results are being removed from places like YouTube, daily.
We have seen this sort of "evidence" control before, with the AGW/Climate Change crowd whose professorships and grants were at stake, too.
Reality is there are no FDA approved studies of anything for this disease. There hasn't been time. GO ahead look all this up, if you can find the stuff the WHO had Google (Youtube) scrub. (If there's nothing to it, why scrub it? There are billions of crackpot ideas on You Tube.)
Why the claim that antibodies aren't enough and having had COVID-19 and recovered isn't sufficient, when you and I know the purpose of a vaccine is to get the body to produce antibodies? Is Brand X better than Brand Y?
Every claim I have made has been sourced to journals at the NIH: just like this one

Now, if you know Fauci and Birx, well believe who you want to. I know who I don't. As long as this continues, they have power, and power is addictive.
