Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Virus drug goes on scrap heap with hydroxychloroquine:
New data on Gilead’s remdesivir, released by accident, show no benefit for coronavirus patients. Company still sees reason for hope
After one month, it appeared 13.9% of the remdesivir patients had died compared to 12.8% of patients in the control arm. The difference was not statistically significant.
https://www.statnews.com/2020/04/23/dat ... -patients/
What's left? Vaccine.
By the way, 13.9% is stupid data. When there are less than 100 patients, say 5 out of 37 or some such number.

Why is CQ on the 'scrap heap'?
Isn't it already an effective treatment for some symptoms? Or is it bad because Cuomo said it might be good?

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
More people died with the malaria drug than control group. It only worked at cellular level tests.

Should they have an ID card for those who have been vaccinated?
Like a voter ID, but for those who accept vaccine science.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Why does Djokovic seem so eager to do China's bidding and move Chinese hopeful Ze Zhang closer to winning the World?? Coincidence? I think not.

Nor did he mention Jussie Smollet. No surprise, I suppose. After all, he's just another NPC acting on behalf of the biased MSM.pErvinalia wrote: ↑Fri Apr 24, 2020 5:49 amAnd he didn't speak out in support of the NBA when they were taken to task by the CCP.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
How Outer Hebrides were perfectly primed to tackle coronavirus

I think it has more to do about the people. They are not that social.Residents of Western Isles, which have yet to record a Covid-19 death, have plenty experience of isolation

Yes but note Trump can't promote vaccines. Anti-vaxxers are 100% Trump voters.
