      So the paucity of evidence for chloroquine against #COVID19 is even worse than I thought.https://twitter.com/SmutClyde/status/1244699237033472000 …

      Serious question, because I am not a doctor. But, it seems to me that of all the potential treatments we're looking at right now, none are proven, chloroquine doesn't seem super promising, and using antibodies from the plasma of recovered patients seems much more so. True?

      That seems to be the case at this time, but chloroquine definitely wins the prize for hype-to-promise ratio.

          Then why aren't people hyping the **** out of using harvested antibodies from people who have recovered? My Dad won't STFU about chloroquine, but hadn't heard about the latter. (Yes, he's a Fox News watching conservative)
