See my previous post where I tried to buy thirty 250mg tablets of hydroxy-chloroquine. https://board.moparts.org/ubbthread...lder-men-smokers-harder.html#Post2747719Instead of costing $1.20 for 30 tablets like it does overseas, I was quoted $501 and told no delivery date could be promised. hydroxy-chloroquine Is synthetic quinine. Originally “natural quinine” was gotten from the sap of a South American tree. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinine#HistoryNatural quinine was in “Tonic Water” which was part of well known bar drink “Gin and Tonic”. In Dec 2006 the do-gooders banned natural Quinine from being put in Tonic Water, mandating that an artificial flavor be used instead. Hundreds of tree farmers in South America and elsewhere lost their jobs. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/771699At that time it was not understood that quinine is also an anti-viral against some viruses. Malaria is not caused by a virus, but a protozoa, which is a tiny animal. So now that there is an urgent and widespread need for quinine (or synthetic hydroxy-chloroquine) aren’t glad that you can’t just buy “real tonic water” at the grocery store?

But if you look at tonic water, it lists as an ingredient quinine, not quinine flavoring. What up wid dat?

Greatly reduced qty of quinine, only enough to add a little flavor with no benefit. Tanqueray and tonic does not taste as it should mixed with the stuff. I bet there is a run on regular old quinine water right now!

The trial results is still months away. It's not yet available, and according to the doc, it won't be for a while.  It sure sounds like they are clearing as many hurdles as fast as they can, which is great, but you can't speed up the actual trial.

So maybe 10 days ago on one of the "pre Official Covid" threads, I shared my grocery store idea about opening alternate check out lanes. This afternoon I visited the same store, and the check out lanes were once again all bunched together. There happened to be a different store manager nearby helping a customer. I spoke to him when he was finished and shared with him my suggestion. He replied: "that's a good idea" "I never thought of that " When asked is there any reason why not to? "I can't think of one" He ended with: "I'll send an email up to corporate" The light went yellow.. 
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

A local Vodka maker has decided to stop making it and is now making 85% alcohol hand sanitizer and is giving it to our local hospitals and care centers for free. He is mixing his raw vodka 99.8% alcohol with glycerin and Lavender oil. To sell it to the public he would need to De-nature it with .01% methanol.
