hydroxychloroquine

is made from Quinine so drink 20 cans of Tonic Water....sugar free is best.

The reason countries with high malaria levels are low on Wuhan Virus is obvious. The populations have been using anti-malarials for decades.

Excepting China and Iran look at the map. Only yellow countries have the worst Wuhan virus infections because they have stamped out malaria.

German pharmaceutical giant Bayer AG said Thursday it donated three million tablets of chloroquine, which it sells under the brand name Resochin, to the U.S. government, although the company isn’t approved to sell the drug in the U.S. The company discovered the drug in 1934.

Bayer stopped selling Resochin in July 2019 - due to 'quality problems in the production'. All bull, they quit because being generic the drug had to be sold at a low price and thus not being profitable enough. Now they suddenly had millions to give away to the US as well as having made a deal of some kind with the German Government to keep another multi millions in storage and ready at any time if required.

So after 20 years on Resochin my wife now had to switch her medication to Qiensyl (also know as Plaquenil), another HCQ drug, which also contains some lactose initially giving her some problems, but it's getting better now.
