Real data. Not perfect. Did you see the studies on Chloroquine Phosphate that I linked too? 10 Hospitals, 100 patients, enough data to convince doctors in China to make it standard treatment. This isn’t remotely quackery unless 72% of drs in Spain and front line doctors taking it prophylacticly in NYC are all quacks. And the reason CP and Plaquenil haven’t worked in other viruses is because the “novel” aspect of this virus is that it attaches to ACE-2 which is why is gets deep into the alveoli. My dad was a doctor and smoked cigarettes from ages 15-65. Maybe cigarettes aren’t so bad. Nobody should care if doctors are taking it proactively. We should be caring whether it seems effective. So tell me, are Spanish doctors getting infected less with a 72% adoption of this treatment?
