This is an opinion and observations based on a small number of patients. It's also not in a peer reviewed journal for some reason. I assume he would have submitted his findings to a peer reviewed journal and it's concerning that it has apparently not been published.

Take what this article says with a very big grain of salt

How did you conclude that this is based on a small number of patients, and what do you consider a small number of patients? I ask because another article I read said he and his colleagues have treated thousands.

Because those numbers you gave just there would indicate a small number of people.

And again is not in a peer reviewed journal. If it's not in a peer reviewed journal you should treat the data as highly suspect. Why you ask? Because peer reviewed journals require detailed explanation of how the data was gathered to ensure that it was gathered accurately and without bias. The fact that either has has not tried to, or not been successful in publishing in a peer reviewed article is concerning.

Haven't left the house except to pick up groceries at Target, take a walk with the dog, or pick up a prescription at Walgreens. I tested positive two days ago. My wife and kids tested negative. I don't know how I got it. Grocery delivery? Wife a carrier (she went to three stores one day, with mask). Luckily I'm asymptomatic. Seems to be a mild case. But I don't know what the long-term effects will be.
Sorry to hear that, sounds like you were being responsible. Hope all goes well. Do you mind me asking why were you tested, being that you’re asymptomatic?

If you are not comfortable answering, feel free to ignore or tell me to go kick rocks.
I'm doing good. But I've been basically locked in my bedroom for ten days now. It sucks. I got texted just because it was across the street, and it was free. My wife was worried about it, so we just decided to get tested. She was negative and I was positive. She's been out more than I have. We got the kids tested (twins, 16) they were negative. So WTH? LOL I honestly don't know how I got it unless somebody in the family was a carrier but didn't get it. I'll get retested next Wed. I just hope there are no long-term damages.

Glad to here you are asymptomatic. The 14 day bubble is tough. My family just emerged after an exposure with a positive case.
Thanks. Yeah, it's tough. I got the results and immediately took my computer, books, and all to our bedroom and have been here since. Sucks. Luckily I write, edit, and teach online from home. But I miss the family. It sucks.

Yes it states that in a hospital setting with proper monitoring there is evidence to support that hydroquinone decreases death rate. It also states that further testing is needed. Again this is just as I mentioned before that there are conflicting studies. This study was very careful of saying that they did monitor the patients hearts.

Well I’m glad it has helped some people. We probably won’t know for awhile if it is proven totally safe and effective. At least a few months..

You're missing the point. The point is that it is still unclear that they benefitted from it or if they would have had the se results without it. That's the problem when there is conflicting data and different methodology.

Oh, I get the point. I understand why it’s taking so long (with so much conflicting data and different methodology).
