Zelenko is a heroic guy. The state government isn’t bothering him because his results are obviously great, and there would be a serious outcry. I doubt that the ID docs and epidemiologists intended to con anyone. The severity of what happened in Wuhan - and then, Italy - set the pattern for the response. It became an unacceptable career risk for any political elite to do anything different. We are witnessing a global panic. Btw, HCQ has an unusually long half life - 30-50 days. It takes this long for the concentration of the medication in the bloodstream to decrease in half. He gives his patients a total of 2 grams over 5 days - but it will stay in their bodies at significant levels for many weeks, maybe months. That’s why for prevention of malaria they give a couple of doses, and then continue once a week. Zithromax will also stay in the tissues for far longer than the 5 days, but not for nearly as long. The fact that Zelenko’s protocol - or something similar - hasn’t been studied yet in an outpatient setting is a mystery. 2-3 weeks would probably be enough to have at least preliminary results.
