..A group of patients who were among the first in Australia with confirmed cases of coronavirus have been successfully treated using two existing drugs.
They were given HIV medication Kaletra and malaria treatment hydroxychloroquine in a secret trial.
The test was so successful that the same drugs will now be given to COVID-19 patients in 50 hospitals around Australia.
The two drugs were highly effective when used against coronavirus in test tubes.
Researchers then conducted a secret trial on the group of patients - all of whom have completely recovered.
University of Queensland Centre for Clinical Research Director Professor David Paterson - who is also Consultant Infectious Diseases Physician at the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital - was part of the team that made the discovery.
'These medications have the potential to be a real cure for all, unlike the random anecdotal experiences of some people,' Professor Paterson said.

And so it begins . . .
I wonder if the Hanks’ are among the 50.

Hope this holds up...

its clear that damn doc Fauci who adores Hillary does not want people,to get well, in order to continue to use the Wuhan virus as a political weapon against the administration.
Trump’s Magic Wand is Yuge.
And functional.
I would hope not. Actors shouldn’t be treated special.
FDA has no jurisdiction over Australia.
Team America: World Police was just a movie, although Arrec Bardren reary is worthless.
Looking at how quickly Tom and his wife recovered and moved out of the hospital to a quarantined home, I would say they are likely being given something. With natural immunity it takes two to three weeks to recover. They are out in 5 days.
*were out.
That’s not an unreasonable assumption (I saw the note); but, I don’t think it’s a given. I think it has more to do with the mindset of a research scientist/bureaucrat. Research scientists like to follow certain protocols before they feel sure of their results. (That’s usually a good thing.) Bureaucrats know that you should never do today what you can put off until tomorrow. Clearly, in an emergency, that mindset just won’t do.
