Chloroquine is a synthetic form of quinine and in the Chinese virus's case it allows zinc to attack it's proteins and shut it down. Quinine is not that hard to find though it is getting sold out for a while. There are several over the counter medications that use it as the active ingredient. I ordered several herbals that are made from the Conchina tree bark where Quinine comes from naturally last week and hopefully it will be delivered by Monday, but went to Walgreens and bought some Hylands Leg cramp capsules for the weekend. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Hyland-s...lief-of-Calf-Leg-and-Foot-Cramp/26967328 There are many different zinc supplements out there and I know most of this group is not susceptible to hysteria with the exception of the leftard trolls we have to put up with so I'll bet I mostly don't get called a racist for labeling it the Chinese virus.

The zinc shouldn't be surprising. I've been taking Zicam for several years and I believe it does help against colds, which is what corona is.

Before you get carried away with the quinine do a search on Thrombic Microangiopathies----- then decide. Zinc yes.
Quinine was used for leg cramps, and on prescription under the trade name Quinamm, but was removed and is longer prescribed

I used to use it often, Seems now they no longer have zinc due to litigation, unless all this jibber jabber contains zinc There’s at least 2 chemical geniuses on here, I yield to higher form of intelligence

No drug has been proven to have any effect what-so-ever on Covid-19, and none of them have been approved... just another one of trumps lies.

it's gonna take a long time to come up with medications/treatments which meet the typical standards of medical reliability, there are no shortcuts. Regardless, who knows what they'll try in the meantime.

This is the first I've heard about zinc in relation to the Chinese flu. Interesting; as I take an occasional "calcium, magnesium, and zinc" supplemental tablet. Sold at Dollar General under the Rexall brand. Also states on the label that it's for "Bone and Immune System Health". Recently got a new bottle...... Perhaps I beat the rush.

Good topic, It's interesting that some of the treatments are being tested are pretty old school. Since it's a Corona virus I guess zinc is pretty obvious.
