But it is proof "enuf" when The Donald speaks! re: The irony of that influenced my making that point. You won't go along with masks if their efficacy hasn't been definitively proven but you're hot for HCQ even though its efficacy hasn't been definitively proven. You believe one has been proven enough for you to act but not the other because you favor one but not the other. You are free, of course, to believe whatever you like but recognize that proof and belief are not the same thing and the later is not science.

He's got the doctor that will write his script. He's free to use either one.

>> You won't go along with masks if their efficacy hasn't been definitively proven but you're hot for HCQ even though its efficacy hasn't been definitively proven. You just don't have the facts correct. Ass-backward, I'd say. There are no studies that I know of that have disproved HCQ as a safe and effective cure for Covid-19 if given sufficiently early in disease progression; there are at least a few studies, some that are substantial, which have shown the correct protocol to be highly effective. (This is why it is in use all over the world, although usually after everything else has been tried -- due to the pad press from poorly designed studies). At the same time, there is a great deal of science that calls into question the efficacy of cloth masks worn by the public, at-large, as a safe and effective preventative against spread. I don't think you've done the homework. But it is your grade.
