12% of the Italian deaths were found, on investigation, to have been from COVID as a primary cause.
The rest COVID was a complication to the actual cause of death.
For example: It turns out that if you have a chronic heart condition and kidney failure, then you are susceptible to viral infection.
HCQ was most effective as an early treatment. HCQ given with Zinc as a cofactor increased the survival rate by something like three times.
The thing is that it was fucking trivial to look at the demographics that were most at risk to death by COVID19. People who died (on average) were 81 and had three co-morbidities.
HCQ and Zinc could be given as a prophylactic to the highest risk demographics, with the doses increased at the first sign of infection. This would have been trivial to do. It still isn't being done.
Even if HCQ has been superseded by Ivermectin as a more effective treatment, it was definitively known in Feb 2021 that HCQ would be a lot better than nothing.
And it was clear not by 2021, but by June of 2020.
One of the hosts of TMZ was ranting a bit about the injections, and his co-host interrupted him and told him "facts evolve". Truth doesn't evolve, narratives do. The "facts evolve" because you were fucking wrong. The decision to suspend HCQ because "Orange Man Bad", resulting in deaths, was and is indefensible.

This is very clearly a better population wide care protocol than the clot-shots or shitty ICU "last gasp" respirator protocols.
