An acclaimed research professor in France revealed successful results of a potential treatment for COVID-19, the coronavirus, The Connexion reports.

Professor Didier Raoult, who works for the infection hospital l’Institut Hospitalo-Universitaire (IHU) Méditerranée Infection in Marseille, published a new video in which he explained that the COVID-19 patients who were treated “with the drug chloroquine had seen a rapid and effective speeding up of their healing process, and a sharp decrease in the amount of time they remained contagious,” according to The Connexion, an English site for French news.

Chloroquine is a very common malarial drug.

This is good news.

“with the drug chloroquine had seen a rapid and effective speeding up of their healing process, and a sharp decrease in the amount of time they remained contagious,”

Elon Musk was tweeting about this. It is the 1940’s drug used for Malaria. it means it is an already tested drug and it’s cheap. We don’t have to wait for AMA approval. All that we have to “wait” for is confirmation that it really works.

and like one poster said, it’s like chicken soup. It can’t hurt. :)

Hydrochloroqine does better.

But still has side effects if taken for several weeks.

Also favipiravir, a new Japanese anti influnza, anti RNA virus drug may be effective.

Didier Raoult is a serious, real scientist and clinical researcher.

This is about the third or fourth different trial I've read about the past few days that say Chloroquine is effective.

It's really cheap and easy to make also. We can make it here for pennies on the dollar. I've only heard a few press interviews where Chloroquine is even mentioned, why isn't this getting better coverage?

Oh. Wait. That's right. The media wants to peddle death, economic panic and bash President Trump.

Yes, they see in their echo chamber that Trump’s approval is slipping and he is vulnerable(which is a lie). They want no cure or anything to mitigate the panic. I sometimes have to feel a deep sadness at the evil in some people. Really to be that craven, empty and evil must be awful.

Chloroquine is a very common malarial drug.

Cheap and available as a generic. Really good if it works out. Can have some nasty side effects, but better than being on oxygen, a ventilator, or dead.

From what I’ve read on the hydrochloroquine, a person requires less than half the dose of chloroquine, and the regime is only for 4 days, which is less than half the regime of chloroquine.

It is since it's risk profile is known.

The article also mentions Gilead's experimental remdesivir drug trials so we may have more than one option.

Unless of course the soup is imported from China and contains bat meat.
