A lot of these studies that are being brought up are preprints. They haven't been critiqued or vetted yet.
Agreed. And yet the press has a tendency to jump on the stories and report them as fact.

Did you see the discussion on this from Dr. John Campbell? youtube.com

The only reason HCQ and zinc have gotten so much publicity is due to Trump. Period. If he had touted something else, that would have been the cure du jour.
I really wish Trump hadn't mentioned HCQ. I was following HCQ and zinc as a possible treatment weeks before Trump mentioned it and it sounded promising. It appears that this treatment would have been investigated much more fairly if Trump hadn't mentioned HCQ.

Thanks for your post!

Best wishes,
