Maybe POTUS is just using common sense. The majority of patients are mild or asymptomatic. Taking HCQ/Z Pak may help them clear virus faster. Once they clear virus, they are likely going to become immune and carry Abs. The more people that safely obtain immunity will help break the chain of transmission and possibly dramatically reduce the size of the pandemic and number of hospitalized patients.
Leronlimab possibly eliminates the risk of ARDS in severe patients. It prevents people from dying from the virus. The 2 drugs serve completely different purposes. What is so hard to understand?
