Didier Raoult is the French "guy" you may have heard about. He's in Marseille - MD/PhD and a foremost researcher in rickettsia plus a whole bunch of other things.

You want to pay careful attn. to his clinical findings - He is a very straight shooter and no BS type guy. (He also disses Parisians so there can be some humor in his remarks.)

Wang Manli in China at their Nat'l Academy did cell culture studies showing the drugs' efficacy. Note that clinical (in vivo) use has shown lower efficacy than in vitro.

I forget the guy who kicked off the chlororQ; hydroxyClorQ stuff about 15-20 years ago.

Both inhibit cov19 replication; the latter is less toxic (based on animal tests)

Lots of other drugs in development/testing. FDA will likely waive some reqs. to speed usage.

But don't forget one man's red-tape is another man's drug safety profile...
