@torahvaluesoverparty That’s interesting that the WHO says lockdowns don’t work. I can’t seem to find anything about it online first hand, can you write a bit more about it? Does the CDC agree?
I’m not sure what you mean by “hardly science to that”. I’ve seen numerous reports that COVID-19 positive people who wear masks are far less likely to spread the disease. And more studies that show how communities where most people are masked and socially distant have almost no internal disease transmission.
Again, I’m not a doctor but I’ll try and explain as best as I can. The first study I mentioned is the clearest. Two doctors read about how HCQ+Zinc was being used to treat mild symptoms in outpatient settings in NY, France, and China so they decided to test the hypothesis. They gave the drug cocktail to a group of people who were showing mild COVID-19 symptoms and a placebo to another group with similar symptoms. The results were that of those who took the HCQ+Zinc slightly less ended up dead or in the hospital.
This is important in two ways. One is that HCQ+Zinc can be added to the list of potential drugs, like Remedisvir and Regeneron, that help with COVID-19. Another is that it illustrates that it’s still not a miracle drug. It only helps with COVID, and certainly doesn’t cure it outright.
As far as I can tell, the idea that it’s being “repressed” in the media is anti-Semitic fake. All double blind peer review published studies are out there and being discussed. Unfortunately, the studies aren’t as optimistic as the original experiments.
