How about we move on and try to stay in the moment, I've spoken to that extensively, Medcram is not a right wing site, it's a medical one. I know how you feel, for how you feel determines how you think, works like that for me too. It just seems logical and important, me too.

New York antibody study estimates 13.9% of residents have had the coronavirus, Gov. Cuomo says
POINTS
  • An estimated 13.9% of the New Yorkers have likely had Covid-19, according to preliminary results of coronavirus antibody testing released by Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday.
  • The state randomly tested 3,000 people at grocery stores and shopping locations across 19 counties in 40 localities to see if they had the antibodies to fight the coronavirus, indicating they have had the virus and recovered from it.
  • With more than 19.4 million people residents, the preliminary results indicate that at least 2.7 million New Yorkers have been infected with Covid-19.

With more than 19.4 million people residents, according to U.S. Census data, the preliminary results indicate that at least 2.7 million New Yorkers have been infected with Covid-19.

The results differed across the state with the largest concentration of positive antibody tests found in New York City at 21.2%. In Long Island, 16.7% of the people tested were positive and in Westchester, where the state’s first major outbreak originated, 11.7% of the tests were positive. The Covid-19 pandemic across the rest of the state is relatively contained with just 3.6% of positive test results.

The subject you are dodging is your susceptibility propaganda or your propensity to disseminate propaganda, including that darling of the religious right, medcrap and Dr Sousa or whatever his name is.

Why do you think that shit is useful?

Now is when you go off on vitamin D and lecture me about how I should be taking it.

Hysteria on the right has abated about HCQ, but I see it is still prevalent on the left in some quarters. Claiming HCQ does not work at this point is as bad as saying it does. Believe it or not efficacy is yet to be scientifically resolved. Personally I think it will be of limited value at best, just as you believe it to be dangerous and worthless, they are just opinions, here are some facts.


Can Hydroxychloroquine and Chloroquine Be Used to Treat Coronavirus (COVID-19)?

Key takeaways:
  • Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are two medications that have been used for many decades to treat malaria and autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.
  • There is not enough medical data at this time to prove that hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine work for COVID-19 — while some small studies suggest the medications may be helpful, other studies saw no difference.
  • There have been no studies showing that these medications work for prevention.
  • There’s now a shortage of hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, which means that people who normally take these medications to manage their health are having a harder time getting the treatment they need.

Here is an interesting article from the same source, if folks want to discuss emerging treatments or stay informed.

The Latest Research on COVID-19 Treatments and Medications in the Pipeline

Key takeaways:
  • There are no approved coronavirus treatments at this time.
  • The drug that’s furthest along in clinical trials for treating COVID-19 is remdesivir, a new antiviral.
  • Researchers are also testing older medications (that are typically used to treat other conditions) to see if they are also effective in treating COVID-19.

Over 2 million people worldwide have tested positive for the novel coronavirus and that number is quickly growing. Our healthcare system is becoming increasingly strained and we are in desperate need of a safe and effective treatment for COVID-19. Scientists around the world are racing against time to find a cure. Here’s what we know so far about emerging treatments for coronavirus, and we will update this article as more information becomes available.
Hospitals and research labs all over the world are testing many different therapies on coronavirus-positive patients in an effort to find a potential COVID-19 treatment. Below we highlight a few medications and treatments that have been making a buzz in the science community.

1) Remdesivir
Remdesivir is an antiviral that is given by intravenous (IV) infusion in the hospital. This is a brand-new drug that has not been approved for use on the market yet, and is being tested in carefully controlled environments. It was previously shown to have some effect against SARS, MERS, and Ebola in cell and animal models. In a recent in vitro study (studies done in a petri dish or test tube rather than in animals or humans), remdesivir prevented human cells from being infected with SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19).
Doctors across the U.S. are enrolling patients with severe COVID-19 into clinical trials to see if remdesivir is an effective treatment. While we wait for results from larger trials, a small study of 61 patients who were severely ill with COVID-19 and received remdesivir through a compassionate use program was recently published. (Compassionate use is a way for people to receive experimental drugs without being in a clinical trial.) Data for 8 patients was unavailable, but for the remaining 53 patients, 36 (68%) needed less oxygen support after treatment, and 7 (13%) died.
Because this was through a compassionate use program, limited data was collected. For example, information about viral load (the amount of virus in the body) was not available, so we do not know if remdesivir was effective in clearing the virus. Additionally, there was not a comparison group, so it is difficult to know whether patients would have improved on their own without taking remdesivir.

2) Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are two medications that have been used for many decades to treat malaria and autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. A few small studies suggest that they may also be helpful for treating hospitalized patients with mild cases of COVID-19, while two studies showed that hydroxychloroquine did not make a difference. More robust studies are needed to confirm whether these medications actually work.

Trump Suggests Injecting Disinfectant Into The Body To Treat Coronavirus | MSNBC

President Trump responded to a presentation by Bill Bryan from the Department of Homeland security on how to fight COVID-19 by suggesting that injecting the body with disinfectant could serve as treatment. In Bryan’s presentation, he explained isopropyl alcohol can kill the virus in 30 seconds. Aired on 04/23/2020.

lulz

the two categories you listed were darlings on your medcrap site and now they are failing in trials as treatments for covid-19

You should stick to meditation. How is that going BTW?

That's clearly my fault and the study was obviously conducted by Trumptards who deny that humans have altered the climate.

Maybe there's a business opportunity in Donald's latest brain droppings about UV light curing coronavirus. It would require a bit of capital, but it's doable! Make UVC tubes in the shape of a foot long dildos and sell them to Trumpers for, "internal use". Trump's own words can be used to market them! FDA approval should be no problem, you'll have an inside track, call the Trumper 2020 Terminator. A good project for an engineer...
