Some of those other treatments are pretty hardcore antibiotics too; HCQ looks like it ranges from a very cautious maybe to twice as likely to die, based on these studies the downside outweighs possible benefit.

I knew Brazil had a study with similar results, I just didn't mention them.

The Brazil study was a different form, the more toxic form, and extremely high dosage.   May as just wait until the “real” studies come out at this point.

What we should stop randomly pumping people full of chemicals?

Even the touted model that put the casualities at the lowest has only a couple of states opening the week of May 1st.  And in terms of people dying today being infected probably '4 or so weeks ago'.  Case studies have shown that the average time between suspected infection and death is 14 days.

And of COURSE you look at both inputs and outputs.  And the inputs are barely on decline from the top point and that is with at the highest point in terms of the number of Americans under in-shelter orders.

Please cite your source.  14 days is within the end of the incubation period.  Time to death is much longer, I just can’t find the article it’s in.  I may have posted it here, or somewhere, earlier.

Speaking of Sweden they did not social distance if my memory is correct. If that is correct how are they doing and what do they do culturally that we don’t do?

They probably agreed to stay neutral with the virus.

No social distancing and deaths almost 10x that of their neighbors

Haven't closed restaurants or bars, social distancing merely recommended.  They also have one of the best functioning healthcare systems in the world with no shortage of supplies.  As for how they're doing, they have the highest death rate in the UK.

Ok so it hasn’t necessarily worked. I haven’t followed their results.

I've read they recommend social distancing and acting responsibility, but they haven't closed school or gyms or bars or restaurants.

I mistyped.  Their death rate is lower than the UK, but highest among Scandinavian countries.

They have the highest death rate among Scandinavian countries.  They trail Italy and the UK, but they're not exactly a success story.

Brandon Newman’s father died from coronavirus yesterday.  He was a decorated police officer working in Chicago.  He was 59.

So you can't use a non scientific study (peer reviewed, controlled, etc.) to say "it works"  but you can use a non-scientific study to say "it doesn't work?"   

I guess these guys are wasting their time and money.   https://www.genengnews.com/news/novartis-plans-phase-iii-trial-of-hydroxychloroquine-for-covid-19/

Where in the world did I say it doesn't work?

Just to make sure everyone know - Sweden is a Scandinavian country and is part of the EU, and is not one of the four countries that make up the UK. Also Sweden, a Scandinavian country in the EU, is not Switzerland, a Swiss country that is famous for its neutrality, mountains, skiing, and cheese and is not part of the EU.
