If I remember correctly, someone on twiv's podcast said that the inmune inhibition occurs months into treatment for lupus patients taking HCG. So, Could you explain in layman terms why this is not the case? Most of us have no clue about what's being discussed in the paper.

I haven't seen any evidence that (Xydroxy)chloroquine alone directly inhibits anything to do with the viral replication. The closest thing that I found is that Thymoquinone inhibits Mouse coronavirus replication and is generally protective of lungs:

Chloroquine is an antipyretic and relieves symptoms like fever from diseases like Malaria and dengue.

Chloroquine stops the inflammation from going out of control, which a good thing during an infection. But if you take it when you don't have an infection, it could stop you from detecting viruses in the first place.

The paper I cited in the previous comment mentions that Chloroquine is a TLR7 inhibitor. TLR7 is a receptor that senses of single-stranded viral RNA. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S01663...
