I'm not surprised. I read the interview with him and wondered if whatever he was given had hallucinogenic properties.

Today the figures for the DR are more encouraging.

Deaths: 235

Recuperated: 416

The gap gets greater in favor of recuperated by leaps and bound.

No
HCQ reduces the impact , the discomfort of the symptoms.....
Like Aspirin.... helps you thru... helps you tolerate by reducing fever, pain etc

Whether you are a death candidate is another story and HCQ is of little to no help

certainly, the jury is still out as to whether the drug has ANY effect
The results are too sparse and too varied to conclude much definitively

Actually the French study shows that combined with Azythromicine it reduces the viral load to almost 0 within 5 days. It's not just Aspirin and nasal decongestant.

What is your plan? I mean chest heaving, fever cannot catch a breathe or smell nor taste anything sick.

Will you go try to find an ICU bed in a private clinic, go to HOMS, go to the biggest hospital in Santo Domingo???

What is everybody's game plan?

- Total: 5,044

I just saw that which means there were less than 100 new infections yesterday. That's really hard to believe but hey you never know.

Are the reported numbers truly reflective of the number of CV19 cases in the country,? Undoubtedly not.

Are the numbers reflective of the results of the tests performed? Probably.

The more you test, the higher your infection numbers. Same with the mortality rate. If you don't test all the people who dropped dead from disease (as opposed to heart attack, stroke, car crash etc) those numbers will be off too.

Does anyone really believe the numbers coming from the DR Gov't?

I don't believe necessarily any source until it's been checked and verified from other reliable sources or agencies.

'House, which sources and agencies do you believe are most reliable? Can you provide a listing?

Seems to me the DR curve will stay "well behaved" until the elections.
