Lancet study on efficacy of HCQ with a macrolide (a class of antibiotic), but without any Zinc, which is major part of protocol that physicians have been using with great success. Recent flawed Veterans Administration study left out both macrolide & Zinc https://secure.jbs.elsevierhealth.com/action/getSharedSiteSession?redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thelancet.com%2Flancet%2Farticle%2Fs0140673620311806&rc=0
HCQ "helps the zinc get inside the infected cells to destroy the virus.”

Why would Lancet study leave Zinc out? Negligence? Or willing to harm health & lives of COVID patients by depriving them of full treatment of successful protocol, just to smear HCQ. https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20200409/chloroquine-zinc-tested-to-block-covid-infection
The first References in Lancet article are to other studies finding that HCQ with Zinc is an effective inhibitor of COVID-19.

It’s not about either trashing or pushing HCQ. Let’s keep politics out of it, let physicians practice medicine & prescribe generic drugs of their choice.
