WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED ?
Just published study from Japan, finds that another anti-malarial drug (Mefloquine) shows efficacy against it

Instead of someone taking a 1 in 250,000 risk of blood clots (1 in 6.8 million of dying) you would like someone to: A) Contract COVID and take a 1 in 100 chance of dying from it B) Then take anti malarial medicine and have a 1 in ? chance of copping "Depression, Coma or Death"
