If the recent study that 90% of people can be virus free after 6 days of hydroxy choloroquine and azithromycin holds up, it seems like we could get through things much quicker than all that.

Let’s hope that works, and that we have enough to go around to hundreds of millions of people around the world.

choloroquine is not a trivial drug. large amounts of it can have ugly side effects and can be quite toxic. exposing everyone to the virus and then slamming them with choloroquine is not a viable option.

Agreed, but most of the side effects go away once you stop treatment, or only occur with long term use.
