Then the woman said she was on an immune suppressant med. Not sure why. Transplant?

U of Chicago uses the immune suppressants for some auto-immune diseases. In our case, it is Cellcept. (Mycophenolate) Last year, they added 3 days of infusion therapy, the same as given to cancer patients. Quite expensive. (Thank you Medicare). Continues this year, 3 days/month.

Amy suggested Zinc, C, quercetin and D3.


Exactly what we have on the counter. D3 was actually prescribed by U of C. The Immunology specialist at U of C recommended both vaccines and the booster. (full dose of Moderna)

I was exposed twice in the past 10-12 days that I know of. So far OK.

Another couple of names that people mention lately, supported by studies, are Echinacea and Melatonin. About the latter, they studied 10mg, which many people take without problems - but I’d, probably, sleep all day and watch vivid dreams.

I assume that HCQ and IVM work the same against omicron, but haven’t seen any studies.
