Where in the world is Waldo? Oh, wait — wrong meme. Carmen Sandiego? Warmer, but no. The answer is zinc sulfate 220-milligram tablets or capsules suitable for popping like candy for a few days. As we've seen, the mass media has been determinedly ignoring the third leg of Dr. Vladimir Zelenko's treatment trifecta. Still, the word has gotten out, and the stuff appears to be out of stock absolutely everywhere.
Forward magazine piece on Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
So! What happens if you get sick enough from coronavirus to seek treatment? Even if your own primary-care doctor is friendly to the hydroychloroquine and azithromycin drug-treatment combination, the odds are against zinc sulfate making its appearance at the party when you need it the most. Moaning and thrashing with fever while struggling to breathe will be the worst possible time to find yourself up the proverbial creek without a paddle. A prudent fellow might opt to buy a paddle in advance.
But how? Where? The only supply in evidence appears to be "99-percent pure" zinc sulfate monohydrate, supplied cheaply indeed by at least one merchant on Amazon. The catch is that it's meant for treating pecan trees for moss and evidently for curing leather. You've got to wonder what's the other one percent in the mix. Few people have forgotten the two venturesome souls who gaily downed fish-tank cleaner with the notion that chemicals are chemicals. Like, dude! Hydroxychloroquine — chloroquine phosphate — close enough, right?
An obvious thought does occur. Why zinc sulfate specifically? Why not, say, zinc picolinate, zine citrate, zinc gluconate, zinc acetate, or even water-insoluble zinc oxide? The difference seems to be about relative bioavailability of elemental zinc in a non-toxic form suitable for human consumption.
I guess my question is what y'all are doing yourselves about stocking up on a small but sufficient supply of the third leg of the primary treatment triad in case you personally or one of your loved ones unexpectedly meets the Slough of Despond that is a serious coronavirus infection.
"Pssst!"
Herb's head jerked around. A small face peered at him from behind the doorjamb of the hospital room entrance. "Daisy! Good timing, honey." Herb listened carefully for footsteps. "Quick, come in!"
Daisy scampered into the room and looked worriedly at her mother, who seemed to be sleeping in her hospital bed. "How is Mommy, Daddy?" She gave a small bottle to Herb, who popped open the lid and pressed a pill from it into his wife's mouth. He lifted a glass of water to her lips, and she opened her eyes a bit. The pill and water went down quickly.
Smiling at his wife and then his daughter, Herb said, "Don't worry, darling. We'll make sure your mother is fine." Footsteps approached, and Herb hastily concealed the bottle in a coat pocket. A nurse entered with a glower of suspicion. Daisy looked out the window, and Herb radiated friendly innocence.
I got the 50mg bottle.
Be warned - you CAN hurt yourself with zinc supplements.
Don't do the fish tank cleaner thingee.

Have you ever come across this reference before?
While zinc deficiency is not common in the US it can happen, especially in those who do not eat meat (it's plentiful in meats.) Zinc is a trace metal that is VERY possible to get too much of and it's very, very bad if you do; with a modest supplement it's safe, but using it as a gross supplement in an attempt to drive zinc serum levels is definitely not a good idea.
Zinc is emerging as a key component in combating the virus. Examples of foods high in zinc include:
oysters, 3 ounces (oz): 74 mg.
beef patty, 3 oz: 5.3 mg.
Alaska king crab, 3 oz: 6.5 mg.
fortified breakfast cereal, 3/4 cup serving: 3.8 mg.
cooked lobster, 3 oz: 3.4 mg.
cooked pork chop loin, 3 oz: 2.9 mg.
baked beans, 1/2 cup serving: 2.9 mg.
dark meat chicken, 3 oz: 2.4 mg.
........and dark chocolate.......
Zinc Strengthens Your Immune System.....contributes to cellular immunity.
Mushrooms, spinach, broccoli, kale, and garlic also contain zinc.
Vitamins and supplements.
Pretty much all MIC.
Oops.
So sucking on a galvanized mail won’t do it?

Quecetin + EGCG + Chelated Zinc will work just as well. The first two are powerful Zinc ionophores and will kill Corona.
*Quercetin
See my post #4 for additional information.
NOTE to all: Get Zinc with Copper or you are wasting your money
The fact is that the huge medical/pharma hierarchy has not changed its operational paradigm from business as usual to crisis mode. The hierarchy does not listen to the word from the warrior physicians in the trenches who are fighting this
contagion.
The decision to use the Zelenko treatment pf HCQ , Zinc and Z-Pac should be a choice of each doctor in this fight, the very medical soldiers in the battle. Imagine a General telling a soldier what available ammunition can or cannot be used in battle.The soldier KNOWS what works against the enemy, first hand. That battle would be lost.
In professional terms whether to use the HCQ therapy involves what is called an “asymmetrical assessment of risk.” That risk assessment is not for computer modeling plutocrats like Fauci, or the plutocrats at CDC or FDA to make.It is up to the doctors to make that assessment in the battle to save life.Thousands of doctors in New York have chosen to use the HCQ and are saving lives.
Those who do not will eventually be adjudged as being physicians who do not really belong on the front line battle against any contagion. They are just not resilient enough, not innovative enough, and lack independence of mind from an out of touch medical plutocracy, not concerned about individual survival , nor are they concerned with a return to basic constitutional rights now being infringed.We have seen their ilk before in history ,where science was used to inflict totalitarianism on people of Europe, Russia and China.
......should be re-emphasized......best get zinc in food rather than supplements........
Bkmrk
Thanks.....link has good stuff.
