If I have receptive intercourse with someone who is HIV+ and I take PrEP, I will not get HIV. If I don't, after a few months, I'm going to be HIV+. If I take meds, I won't get AIDS. If I treat my AIDS, I'm going to live another 10 years. If I don't, in a year, I'm dead.

We know that the Lupus wing of Wuhan hospital never got the coronavirus. That's how we learned the Hydroxychloroquine may be effective (it's prescribed for Lupus). Wouldn't this explain why we're having such confusing study results on its effectiveness?

In short, hydroxychloroquine works if you prescribe it super early. It doesn't work if you prescribe it late. Works the same way HIV works, another virus for which there is no cure nor vaccine.

While there have been reports of other hospitals noticing that the lupus wing never got sick, this 17 patient (with 50% nonlupus comorbidities) preventative study in France really hurts the HCQ as a preventative theory I was backing.

Replying to @Molson_Hart @mgirdley
Some research summaries. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w6p_HqRXCrW0_wYNK7m_zpQLbBVYcvVU/view … The jury's still out, but it seems like a treatment that should be available, not banned as it was in Arizona.
