Trump says he's no longer taking hydroxychloroquine
Fox News ^ | May 25 2020 | Kenneth Garger | New York Post

President Trump said that he is no longer on hydroxychloroquine, the anti-malarial drug he has been taking for several weeks as a treatment to ward off the coronavirus.

“Finished, just finished,” Trump told “Full Measure with Sharyl Attkisson” during an interview that aired Sunday on Sinclair Broadcasting. “And by the way, I’m still here. To the best of my knowledge, here I am.”

Last Monday, Trump revealed he had started taking the drug “a couple of weeks ago.”

I took Quercetin (a zinc ionophore like hydrochloroquine) and zinc this morning. Had the sniffles.

There are lots of ways to skin a cat.

Interesting real-life study about taking HCQ as a preventative to covid in India.

In Mumbai [Bombay], 10,000 policemen [over 40 years of age] were offered hydroxychloroquine, 4,500 accepted and used it diligently. Among the policemen who have used HCQ, there are zero reported fatalities, among those who refused, nine fatalities. Some who were taking HCQ got a “mild attack” and survived.

And NO ONE in the lamestream media is calling out Amy Klobuchar for tweeting out “hydroxychloroquine causes hallucinations” when Trump first revealed he was taking it, when her own husband was given it in the hospital.

So is the debate over now?

HCQ is safe, Trump took it without ill effect and did not contract the virus, despite infected aides and SS men all around him.
Amy's husband took it and beat COVID-19.

The libs will say it's anecdotal, doesn't mean a thing. They will never admit they were wrong.

Meanwhile, Biden is still hiding in his basement.

Not a bad outcome, really. Is anyone making the connection?

Oh, some liberal will claim that it has affected Trump adversely and cry “25th Amendment” . . . probably Bandy Xenobia Lee again when she feels the need for more attention drawn to herself . . .

You said: “That’s what I take. Quercetin and Zinc. For 3 months now every day.”

Just understand that Quercetin is NOT as “safe” as HCQ because we can’t know the interactions in any way similar to that of HCQ. THIS IS THE DEEP HORROR OF POLITICIZING MEDICINE.

I have set up this option (Quercetin) for myself.. so I am not say, don’t do this. I am saying know that if you can get HCQ, that’s a safer move.

This is a good breakout of the interactions and side effects of Quercetin
https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-294/quercetin

You will notice.. the question marks and plainly admitted guesses. And, frankly there are some benefits of Quercetin that are interesting.

Next.. Zinc is a poison.

The Essential Toxin - Impact of Zinc on Human Health
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2872358/

The huge problem with longer term elevated zinc exposure is the depletion of Copper in your body and subsequent increasing copper deficiency health impacts.. which can be DEADLY and LIFE CHANGING.

Health benefits and risks of copper
https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/288165

But, you must also supplement Copper with caution.. see above link.

Ideally, you wouldn’t do this without discussing with your physician

A better approach may be (If you are tollerating Quercetin well), would be to add Zinc for a few days to a week after any time you feel any flu or cold symptom.. then let that go and let your body and cells get back to functioning normally.

“Trump says he’s no longer taking hydroxychloroquine”

he doesn’t need to: the drug enters the cells and has a very long half life and has a protective effect for a very long time ... President Trump is probably protected from C-19 for at least 90 days ...
