You have never answered the question I've posed to you a couple of times now: why is it that the countries that have controlled this virus the best all use the standard pandemic guidelines: wear masks, extensive testing and contact tracing, quarantining when necessary, limit large indoor gatherings, appropriate sanitation. The example you gave of Switzerland simply doesn't work for you--the Swiss themselves may use HCQ in some cases, I really don't know and I certainly don't know how extensively they use it, but it clearly isn't their front line defense. If it was, we surely would know about it. They tried to go without demanding masks, but they found from their experience and the experience of their European neighbors that it simply didn't work. That is what that article I posted said. That includes Italy, which was hit so hard back in March especially in the north, but which locked down for awhile and followed the rules and now they have relative normality. None of them ascribe their success to HCQ or Zinc. All of them have populations that wear masks. You keep maintaining that masks don't work but the experience of Europe and Asia says otherwise.
