My father had malaria. I remember that there was a bottle of tonic (quinine) water in the refrigerator. It used to have a higher content of quinine in it. He treated that like the vile thing it was and made sure to tell us a kids NOT TO EVER DRINK IT.

When tonic water changed to having less quinine in it, he quit using it as the side-effects he was experiencing were worse than the malaria!

That said, this is only a treatment for some specific cases (such as lupus/rheumatoid arthritis) but is most certainly is not a cure!

My father died at the age of 75 with sweat dripping down his face because of the malaria he had contracted in the Guadalcanal in WWII.

Shame on those that are hoarding this drug as those that need cannot get it thanks to stupid people that believe dump's word and grab it all up any way they can manage to get it.

There is absolutely no efficacy that indicates that this will cure COVID-19 as there is no "fix" nor cure for a new virus that may be mutating as it lives on. It is a huge danger to use this drug without appropriate nor necessary medical need.

Shame on those hoarding this!

Scared pukes will do anything to save their sorry asses!
