#17  ^if you stop giving the patients HCQ --->
if you stop giving NEW patients HCQ

#16  #12 It describes outcomes for people with serious symptoms*: X die, Y recover. Apparently, the process takes 13 days - you die or recover.
The graph is R = X/(X + Y). That is, the smaller R is the better. Now, what it shows that if you stop giving the patients HCQ, two weeks later many more die. If you start giving HCQ again (new patients), two weeks later they recover.
Hope this helps.

*Avoids all the bull with tests not being 100% sure, asymptomatic infected, etc...
**Apparently, the sickness take 13 days

#15  PIMF. Stop not sop, and up has a superfluous y.

#14  Reading the link in #4, I think I have it: Sop HCQ and the fatality rate goes up in 13 days. Start it yup again, and the fatality rate drops in 13 days.

Hydroxychloroquine works, and (therefore, I, and others, conclude) the media hysteria is killing patients. The media lied, patients dies.

#13  I know it says new dead divided by cases resolved, but that doesn't actually mean anything to me when I say it aloud to myself. Am I missing something incredibly obvious?

#12  Gromgoru, I don't understand your chart. What exactly is being measured by the percentages as each day goes on?

#11  You personally, when did I do that?

#10  I think you compared me to Shiites licking shrines? No?

#9  #8 Other people around here, like Lex & Clem, hold exactly the same position as you - while managing NOT to turn every argument into personal clash of wills. And they are not even moderators. Think on it.

#8  I'm not assuming one way or the other on the Chinese Virus damage - which is apparently, from your own data not the Pandemic any more, but I know the damage the shutdown is doing. Your arrogance prevents you from seeing that. It's unattractive...at best and makes you a useful tool at least IMNSHO. Follow Allahpundit much?

#7  So, what stops you now?

#6  I can always acknowledge that possibility for myself
Posted by: Frank G   2020-07-15 15:49  

#5  Or maybe you're wrong. That never occurs to you, does it?
Posted by: Frank G   2020-07-15 15:47  

#4  #1 Or, maybe, having HCQ cannot compensate 100% for being poor.

#3  If you are *really* poor, you don't even have an indoors.

#2  Pretty sure a lockdown in India is pretty meaningless. I mean, the country is so dirt poor that large sections of the nation don't even have running water. How could they possibly make everybody stay indoors?

#1  Maybe, not everything optimistic we've been told about HCQ is 100% correct?
