“We must act, and act quickly. There is an overwhelming argument to proceed now. All those suffering from COVID-19 should have immediate access to hydroxychloroquine-based treatment.”
Since then, the use of hydroxychloroquine for early treatment has become widespread globally, in countries such as Switzerland, Spain, Italy, South Korea, Algeria, Morocco, Turkey, Brazil, and others.
Yes there is controversy about the cheap 20$ therapy, but everything points at its effectiveness and safety when it’s used early in the development of the disease, under professional medical oversight.
My message to Premier François Legault was not heard. He or anyone in his cabinet did’t even say thank you for the considerable work I had done to present him a workable blueprint to save numerous lives in the province.
> Nursing Homes: How Many Deaths Could Have Been Prevented? <<
Today, I am making public the executive summary of the document I presented to Premier Legault on April 1st.
My recommendations of April 1st still stand today, 38 days after having warned the Québec Premier.
People Should Have Immediate Access to Hydroxychloroquine-Based Treatment for COVID-19.

When one knows that there are tens of thousands of lives, maybe hundreds of thousands of lives, that are still at stake, the WHO position seems to be unrelated to its very mandate, which is supposed to take care of the health of the people.
What looked a bit like a conspiracy theory, that the main problem with hydroxychloroquine is that nobody can really make money out it, as it’s a generic drug, seems increasingly believable.
Follow the money, as goes the saying.
He compares the case fatality rate in The Resort nursing home in Texas City where Dr Armstrong administered early an hydroxychloroquine-based treatment, to case fatality in nursing homes where such treatment is not administered.
In this Texas nursing home, 56 residents and 33 staff members were found to be COVID-19 positive.
Dr Armstrong estimated that they could lose 15 to 20% of residents if they did nothing.
Hydroxychloroquine, Zinc and Zpac (azithromycin) were administered as soon as a resident first started showing symptoms.
Armstrong also says they did EKGs on each of the patients.
Armstrong said one of his nursing home patients died.
1 out of 56 nursing home patients represents 1.8% case fatality rate.
Chris Martenson then compare to the case fatality rate in Massachusetts, where 56% of the coronavirus deaths are found in nursing homes. He infers from those data a case fatality rate of 16.1%.
The ratio in this situation is about 10 to 1, meaning that 90% of the deaths could have been avoided.
In Canada, with to date some 6400 deaths attributed to COVID-19, and about 80% of them in elderly homes, saving 90% of those elderly would mean that about 5000 deaths could have been prevented.
And let’s remember, this is a treatment that basically costs nothing and that does not require hospitalization. It can be administered within the nursing homes, as was done in this Texas experience.
Most, if not all these horrific situations that occurred in Canada, with staff refusing to go to the premises and leaving the elderly dirty, unfed, dehydrated, to let ultimately dying, could have been avoided.
The situation is still in fact ongoing, with numerous elderly homes still being infected and with no plan to provide treatment.
Health Canada, like the the World Health Organization, made it clear: there is no treatment, and hydroxychloroquine is dangerous …
It seems unlikely that what increasingly looks like a geronticide will be stopped anytime soon by the fearful Canadian federal government and its provincial disciples.
This drug can be used but with risk.
But what continues to be ignored are the much bigger risks of dying from the virus are obesity,
smoking, alcoholism and poor health.
Our greatest weapon in life is good health, strong immune system and a healthy attitude.
So how about get off the couch, eat well and live a life that is fulfilling.
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve become much more aware of “foundation building” than putting band-aids on things.
“This drug can be used but with risk.” This statement has been used a lot by CDC, WHO, and FDA with absolutely no foundation. Instead the opposite has been proven by cardiologists. Very rare for any irregular heartbeat problems. And I personally have read everything I can on this because I suffer from Persistent Afib.
Agree but most people with those conditions cannot reverse them so why not use a cheap drug that may save them ?
Bravo, PK. The biggest risk for this drug is that a lot of greedy bastards won’t make money.
hear hear !
