We ARE using the Hydroxychloroquine/azithromycin and a long list of various antivirals that have shown some effectiveness.

There is definitely no silver bullet at this point in time. We are currently at 30 deaths and 219 (confirmed) hospitalized patients.
OK, did the 30 who didn't make it get the Trump cocktail, and still died? Did they present in such bad shape that they were already pretty much gone by the time they rolled in the gate? Did they not get the cocktail because of medical contraindications and other treatments weren't successful?

You should have enough anecdotal observations to formulate some kind of opinion of the cocktail's efficacy by this point. So, does it work on those that can tolerate it or not? Does it work on a certain percentage, but not others?
