[QUOTE=OrangeBlossomBaby;1741957]I haven't seen anyone here state that they wouldn't take it even under emergency circumstances. What I am seeing, is people jumping on the bandwagon of "this stuff works, I know someone who knows someone who lived to tell about it!" and "this stuff works, I read it in an article that quoted a doctor!"
And then I'm seeing (and posting) "stop assuming that just because you read it in an article that quotes a doctor, and know someone who knows someone - that it's actually effective."
Here's the snopes explanation (from a person who has spent 7 years working with coronaviruses) about the France trials:

Yeppers. Snopes knows better than every doctor or medical lab.
