We are two weeks from that date. Both the French and Chinese papers said that significant improvements were noted within 5 days.

I haven't heard anything about if HQC has made any difference. Any links anyone?

BTW, they are using a lot of it. The Wuhan paper says the patients got 400 mg/day for 5 days. The French paper was 600 mg/day for 6 days. Malaria treatment is 300 mg/week.

HQC does cause serious lengthening of QT, so may not be suitable for someone already crashing.
Reporter just asked Cuomo. He's saying 14 days is too short to give a 'scientific opinion' and has no 'official data', but Anecdotal it's been positive.......
