As with most things, there are unintended consequences. I recently read where many pharmacies are having trouble getting ample supplies of hydroxychloroquine, because so many doctors are prescribing it. The problem is that some people, like my wife, take and have taken it for years because of lung related autoimmune disease. Now many of them are unable to get their prescriptions filled. Fortunately, we got my wife’s script filled for ninety days right before the run on it.

I am reminded of the panel of physicians who recommended cessation of PSA testing as an early warning for prostate cancer. The panel consisted of not a single oncologist, not a single urologist, and was chaired by a female pediatrician. Do we know if all the respondents of this survey have actually treated COVID-19 patients? Additionally, since it was a multiple-choice poll, it could have been biased toward a desired conclusion. How do we know that jelly beans weren't a choice? To summarize...I reject this news and favor scientific protocols.

Yet, the original posting says it’s the most used drug. Most used drug, but there have been thousands of deaths by those prescribing the drug? |

The Doctor in LA is using a cocktail of hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, and zinc sulfate which is what's working for him. Not sure if all the Doctors in survey use same cocktail, just that many of them use hydroxychloroquine.

I hope and pray that Chloroquine with the Z-pac works and I hope and pray that the vaccine they began testing today works too. I read somewhere a couple of weeks ago that someone was testing a vaccine in the State of Washington. I really like being assured that the good news is coming from a valid source. But I am very, very, skeptical. I had really good science teachers. And a damn good English teacher too who was Hell on proper sourcing. That was a long time ago, but I still can say my linking verbs...…….

I understand you would rather wait for full clinical trials, but death rate may peak in a few weeks so those may be too late to save some people. I noticed you have commented on the Doctor in LA, he's treating very serious coronavirus patients with his tri drug cocktail and seeing great results. |

Well ... given the alternatives (of which there are none), if I were suffering from the virus and truly that sick, if I were offered this medication, I’d scarf it down in a heartbeat. Something beats nothing every day.

His patients were under long-term acute care and had comorbidities such as hypertension, coronary artery disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or congestive heart failure. I'd say saving all but 2 is pretty darn good with those patients. The other reports DR Smith : Smith, who is treating 72 COVID-19 patients, said that he has been treating "everybody with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin [an antibiotic]. We’ve been doing so for a while.” He pointed out that not a single COVID-19 patient of his that has been on the hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin regimen for five days or more has had to be intubated. “The chance of that occurring by chance, according to my sons Leon and Hunter who did some stats for me, are .000-something,” he said, adding that “it’s ridiculously low" Dr Cardillo in LA Dr Anthony Cardillo said he has seen very promising results when prescribing hydroxychloroquine in combination with zinc for the most severely-ill COVID-19 patients "Every patient I've prescribed it to has been very, very ill and within 8 to 12 hours, they were basically symptom-free," Cardillo told Eyewitness News. "So clinically I am seeing a resolution" So you might need to recalculate that death rate. |
