i don’t know much about it- i do know that like when taking certain vitamins, you should combine them with certain other ones because they help the cells or the body to absorb them better somehow- so maybe they’ve discovered that the zinc opens something up in order to allow the drugs to be better taken into the virus cells or something- without the zinc, perhaps the drugs struggle to enter where they need to be to work right- I think they still work, just perhaps not as good0- we’ve seen trials of the Hrdrxy drug work without the zinc- maybe they have faster and better success when adding the zinc
Zinc is an antiviral in it’s own right too- it inhibits viruses- like with herpes- it inhibits it so that it doesn’t come out and go to a surface like the lips (Cold Sores) i believe- so maybe this action also helps in combination with hte drug- I don’t know0-
I’m definitely not on the forefront of anything. But I’ll suck on a zinc lozenge, which I have always looked at as placebo, anyway. Who knows, hopefully I’m very wrong.
Zinc is also needed for making healthy sperm. With everything shut down worldwide there’s going to be a major baby boom 9 months from now. What to name this synchronized generation?
