Are We Chopped Liver?

The Zelenko Protocol for treating Corona (consisting of small doses of hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and azithromycin) has been shown to be effective.     LINK: Recently published: The Study      LINK: About the Study Dr. Zelenko's protocol has been endorsed by many doctors and public health experts in the United States. The promise of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) has been announced publicly by no less a figure than the President of the United States. LINK: Podcast with Rudi Giuliani LINK: Dr. Karladine Graves LINK: Dennis Prager An essential element of the Zelenko Protocol is to make sure that it is applied at the very first stages of the disease.

This blog is an attempt to understand the world-wide Covid-19 pandemic, in a rational and dispassionate fashion. I welcome any comments, or emails sent to me directly.

But because the Zelenko Protocol is so cheap, it is also scalable.     4.    Therefore, the Israeli authorities apply the Zelenko Protocol on a national scale; thus saving hundreds of lives and causing no disruption to the Israeli economy. Can you (or anybody else) point out to me, in simple English, at what point (or points) this hypothesis fails? Why...
