    The only reason doctors are using hydroxychloroquine is because it is widely available and cheap -- -and doctor's don't really have any other options available in most countries. So, yes, the use of hydroxychloroquine has increased; doctors might as well try it when the only other option is giving the patients tylenol.

    However, day after day, as more study information comes out it is becoming clear that hydroxychloroquine based therapies for COVID-19 are probably not effective. It should be noted that both India and South Korea have guided doctors not to use hydroxychloroquine on COVID-19 patients since there is no proof that it is effective.

    The recent reports about resdemisvir which lifted the market do not really prove the drug is effective for COVID-19 -- it only shows that one small trial showed positive result. Much more study is needed. Nor is resdemisvir widely available around the world. Gilead could only dig up 1700 doses to be used on a compassionate use basis for COVID-19 testing.

    The reality is that it is likely that NO drug will be effective against COVID-19. Plasma will help but is not a definitive cure. Until a vaccine is developed and widely available we will be living under the "new normal".

    That's a reasonable posture. Unlike all the shit we hear from our TDS residents.

    Dr. Oz now says he doesn't know if hydroxychloroquine works and "we are better off waiting for the randomized trials."

    This is a great video explaining why the recent study that the media used for article to state that hydroxychlorquine is complete junk. It is just disgusting how democrats have tuned this into a political attack.

    Well, according to this doctor, hydroxycholoquine with zpak does work. His results are below. He has documented a 0.5% mortality rate of patients that have gone to the hospital not of and estimate of total infected.

    Watch the video above. I would like to hear your thoughts.

    Treatment with Hydroxychloroquine Cut Death Rate Significantly in COVID-19 Patients, Henry Ford Health System Study Shows
    https://www.henryford.com/news/2020/07/hydro-treatment-study
    DETROIT – Treatment with hydroxychloroquine cut the death rate significantly in sick patients hospitalized with COVID-19 – and without heart-related side-effects, according to a new study published by Henry Ford Health System.



    In a large-scale retrospective analysis of 2,541 patients hospitalized between March 10 and May 2, 2020 across the system’s six hospitals, the study found 13% of those treated with hydroxychloroquine alone died compared to 26.4% not treated with hydroxychloroquine. None of the patients had documented serious heart abnormalities; however, patients were monitored for a heart condition routinely pointed to as a reason to avoid the drug as a treatment for COVID-19.
