From COVID to Cancers, HCQ is ‘Wonder Drug’ of Our Time
Undoubtedly, the biggest medical scandal of our age is the coordinated suppression of the science that proves hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is not only a safe medicine, it is clinically proven to treat many serious diseases other than malaria and COVID-19.
Below we show the evidence from the scientific literature on Google Scholar that HCQ works against many cancers, diabetes, HIV, herpes, rheumatoid arthritis, Lupus, Lyme disease, etc.
Among the top 128 drugs prescribed by doctors, HCQ features in dozens of peer-reviewed studies in respected science journals, testifying to its ‘wonder drug’ epithet. The shocking truth is that it took a global pandemic and the heroism of informed and selfless men and women to stand up and expose the evil done to us.
Thankfully, most doctors still put treating patients before profit and speak out about the inflated COVID death tolls.
The bravest of those doctors stood on the steps of Capitol Hill this week to share their important message. But the ‘Media Giants Banned Viral Video Of Doctors’ SCOTUS COVID Conference.’
Those who persist in speaking out are threatened with losing their medical license and get smeared by media hacks. But they still speak out against the insanity of lockdown and face masks.
Some doctors have gone to court to fight for public access to this wonder drug. Some have filed a lawsuit against the FDA for trying to suppress the truth. Five critical care physicians heroically formed the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Working Group (FLCCC) to battle the media bias.
If we had a responsible mainstream media pursuing altruism rather than propaganda, then such information would be shared widely and save millions of lives. But in a world where a self-serving elite own and control 90 percent of the mainstream, millions are condemned to die needlessly – and will continue to die as long we allow Big Pharma to profit while we are poisoned on a diet of fake news.
Hydroxychloroquine is the modern, synthesized form of quinine, a perfectly safe treatment for malaria used in the Indian subcontinent for centuries. British soldiers, stationed in malaria-threatened India during the Empire, adopted the local remedy quinine in the form of tonic water imbibed in the tipple gin and tonic as a prophylactic against malaria. They called the mixture tonic water because the word “tonic” means a medicinal substance taken to give a feeling of vigor or well-being.
As a prophylactic gin and tonic (quinine) saved millions of lives.
Most viewers of mainstream TV news will be shocked to learn that the drug the media is raving as being “dangerous” for treating COVID-19 is actually found in its natural form (quinine) in a beverage we can all buy freely from our grocery stores.
Yes, we are talking about good old fashioned tonic water – a mixer in Gin and Tonic – the favorite tipple of the British royals!
At my local supermarket tonic water (containing quinine – the original version of HCQ) costs less than a dollar (UK£1) a bottle. I have been drinking a glass a day every day since President Trump pointed out the merits. Trump’s tweet, that of his son, Donald Jr and now Madonna have been removed from social media for daring to reveal the truth.
In the caption on her banned post, Madonna, speaking of HCQ, claimed a vaccine for Covid-19 has:
“been found and proven and has been available for months. They would rather let fear control the people and let the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.”
Quinine was refined and developed pharmaceutically over decades to become chloroquine and now hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). Only since the emergence in 2020 of the coronavirus pandemic has this World Health Organization (WHO) essential safe medicine been maligned by nefarious interests – all the negativity came as soon as US President Donald Trump highlighted its great efficacy.
By shining a light on the truth nations around the globe are slowly waking up to the value of this wonder drug. Already, 6,000 doctors in an international poll praised HCQ as the best COVID treatment.
The guilty are being exposed. Revelations of HCQ’s panacea effect is fast becoming the catalyst for a citizens’ revolt against the criminal deception perpetrated on us by drug companies and their stooges in the media.
Altruism and a public duty to save and protect lives has prompted medical professionals to contact Principia Scientific International (PSI) to do what mainstream ‘journalists’ fail to do – help get the message to the wider population.*
One such medical expert is Dr. Aura Daraba, who informed us:
“There are anthropological studies that show coronaviruses are with humans since ancient (pre-historical times) and nowadays we can find dead coronaviruses segments in our genome/body. These studies are from the 1990’s and published long before anyone heard of COVID-19. Honest biologists/virologists who deal with anthropology can clarify a lot with regard the “great numbers” of identified infected humans and the declaring of this ‘worldwide epidemic.’”
Moreover, a new study trashes fake news claims on HCQ and elevated heart risk.
Let’s now examine more real peer-reviewed evidence:
Re-purposed as a Cancer Treatment
Lung & Pancreatic cancers and hydroxychloroquine
Beyond the above, HCQ has many other applications, as we illustrate below:
Encephalomitis and hydroxychloroquine
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0022510X15020213 [1]
tells us that they found:
“HQC pretreatment attenuates the activation of human microglia in vitro; HQC pretreatment reduces the production of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in vitro; HQC pretreatment delays the onset of EAE; HQC pretreatment reduces microglia/macrophages in the spinal cord in EAE; HQC pretreatment reduces signs of demyelination in the spinal cord in EAE.”
Check Google Scholar yourself and see that other papers also found that hydroxychloroquine reduces microglial activity and attenuates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (Autoimmune Encephalitis is a fatal disease where the body’s own immune system starts mistakenly attacking the brain, which leads to many problems including inflammation in the brain and impaired function.)
HCQ treatment reduces the activation of human microglia in vitro, delays the onset of EAE, and decreases the representation of activated macrophages/microglia and demyelination in the spinal cord of treated mice. HCQ is a plausible candidate for further clinical studies in MS.
Diabetes and hydroxychloroquine
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1185/03007995.2014.909393 found that:
“Conclusion:With favorable effects on glycemic parameters and lipids, hydroxychloroquine may emerge as well tolerated therapeutic option for T2DM.” [2]
Indian researchers used HCQ to treat Diabetes
Indian researchers did what we recommend all our readers do: perform a careful and thorough search yourself online and uncover the truth and change your lives for the better.
“A systematic and manual searching was carried out to retrieve relevant articles (preclinical and clinical studies) published from January 2014 to July 2019. Electronic databases including PubMed and Scopus as well as clinicaltrials.gov have been searched using different searching terms: “hydroxychloroquine,” “diabetes mellitus,” “hyperglycemia,” and “insulin resistance.” The MeSH terms (PubMed) and text words were combined with “AND” or “OR.” In addition, manual searching of Google Engine and Google Scholar was conducted. Quality assessment of all the included studies was performed using CAMARADES (preclinical studies) and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and Cochrane Collaboration’s tools (clinical studies). Results. A total of eighteen studies (three experimental and fifteen clinical studies) were found to be eligible for the present systematic review. Among the included clinical studies (six randomized control trials, five observational studies, and four cohort studies), about 55,776 study participants were involved.” [3]
The paper’s authors were able to compile the key peer-reviewed online data to confirm there is convincing medical evidence of the anti-diabetic effect of hydroxychloroquine.
HIV and Chloroquine
The above image of of the paper from 2001 you haven’t heard of. This study found that HCQ has an “anti-HIV effect” and if we had an honest media it would have been all over our screens and newspapers. The authors report:
“At clinically achievable concentrations chloroquine inhibits HIV-1 post-integrationally by affecting newly produced viral envelope glycoproteins, and the drug has broad-spectrum anti-HIV-1 and HIV-2 activity.” [4]
Herpes and Chloroquine
Screenshot above from Google Scholar. Yet again, another readily-unearthed peer-reviewed study this time showing that HCQ can be effective in reducing herpes.
Leukemia and hydroxychloroquine
“We tested the effects of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), an anti-rheumatic drug, on the viability of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells. HCQ induced a decrease in cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Indeed, HCQ in leukemic cells induced the features of apoptosis (cell shrinkage, decrease in mitochondrial transmembrane potential, phosphatidylserine externalization, chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation).” [5]
Rheumatoid arthritis and hydroxychloroquine
Writing in 2018, long before any controversy over the drug, Hugh Duckworth MD a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) from University of Tennessee School of Medicine posted an online article ‘RA and Hydroxychloroquine: How Effective is it for Rheumatoid Arthritis?’ (Oct 27, 2018) which advised:
“Being able to stop joint damage can lessen pain and mean a better quality of life. Hydroxychloroquine is one of the medications that can be a valuable part of your treatment plan.” [6]
Originally, hydroxychloroquine was used to prevent and treat malaria and was considered very effective. Now it is generally used for rheumatoid arthritis, but it has also been shown to work well for juvenile arthritis, some lupus symptoms, and other types of autoimmune conditions.
“While doctors are not clear why this medication is effective for autoimmune conditions, the theory is that it interferes with the metabolic communication between the bodies immune system cells. If the cells can’t effectively communicate with each other, then the excessive immune response of RA is reduced.” [1]
According to the American College of Rheumatology, hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), is a “disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD),” meaning that it helps reduce the pain and swelling that come with arthritis. It can also reduce the incidence of joint damage, thus lessening the risk of developing a long-term disability from complications of RA.
Herpes and hydroxychloroquine
Lyme Disease and hydroxychloroquine
Discussion
We should heed the sage advice of Thomas Jefferson who said:
“Educate and inform the whole mass of the people… They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.” [WWG1WGA]
The above offers readers a mere taster of what is out there and readily located by a diligent search of Google Scholar, etc. There were many more we could have added. But we hope you will now be inspired to do ‘some digging’ yourself.
Please let it sink in that the above-cited peer-reviewed studies on hydroxychloroquine is JUST a snapshot of the science over 60 years proving this wonder drug is extremely safe to use.
The mainstream media, often sponsored and/or controlled by business interests in pharmaceuticals will not report on ANY good news on treatments that would undermine profit margins. Keep in mind the business model for Big Pharma is in providing treatments, not cures.
Many cancer treatments such a chemotherapy, have only a 3 percent success rate and are very expensive and side effects can be as deadly as the disease. Meanwhile, there have been countless double-blind studies on safe and affordable HCQ which is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines. [7]
So cheap is HCQ that the wholesale cost in the developing world was about US$4.65 per month as of 2015, when used for rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. [8]
In the United States the wholesale cost of a month of treatment is about US$25 as of 2020. [9]
In the United Kingdom this dose costs the National Health Service about £5.15. [10]
Meanwhile, the enemies of HCQ as a treatment for COVID-19 call it ‘unsafe’ while simultaneously trying to rush a vaccine that won’t have double blind placebos and no long term safety studies is testament to their evil hypocrisy and corruption.

Thanks John & Zoe, appreciate your positive feedback.Please help spread the word. From the doctors who’ve contacted me, it seems there is support for possibly re-classifying HCQ as an essential vitamin because it is so well-tested, safe and broadly beneficial for health. The more people know of this the better!

Hi John
What has been clear is that Dr Stella Emmanual has been publicly ridiculed on BBC and New Zealand news sites as promoting ideas of aliens breeding on earth, and some other “out there” belief systems when on the video in support of hydroxychloroquine Dr. Emmanual mentions “check the data”.
The news items make no mention of the other doctors and their evidence or “the data” and having spent 24 hours amplifying the character assassination of Dr Emmanual the BBC and NZ news sites have had the article on doctors in support of hydroxychloroquine disappear into thin air whilst older news items are still on the news sites.

Matt, Agreed. As with the climate hoax, these mainstream news outlets are all in on character assassination of prominent critics who dare challenge the consensus (often fake) narrative. So many of these independent experts are truly heroes of our time – modern day Galileo’s – for taking on the monumental challenge of opposing the biggest scientific scams of all time.

Great article, I did not hydroxychloroquine was so versatile, however I did find it quite irresponsible for the media and so-called lied about the dangers of the drug. It is listed as an essential medication by the WHO, which directly contradicts the lies of the media. We have 50 years of successful use of this drug without problems form the majority of the people using HCQ. Unfortunately we do not receive truth from traditional media. Fortunately we do have sites such as yours that refute the junk science we are continually exposed by the mainstream media source. The main reason HCQ is opposed is that it is cheap, compared to remdesivir, which actually appears to less effective then HCQ.
Thanks,
John

Quinine is a natural antimicrobial, antiviral from the Alkaloid orgznic chemical family, which also includes Caffeine, Nicotine, Strychnine and the psychedelic compounds. These are defense systems against bacteria, viruses, mold, fungus and grazing animals.
We need a two year moratorium on ALL VACCINES while Independent review panels judge the safety, efficacy and morality of this barbaric superstition.

Thanks for this thought provoking article, John.
I have to admit that I have tended to ignore “medicinal compound” theories in the past. Perhaps that is just because of the history of ‘snake oil’ salesmen.
The amount of money being poured into vaccine development in general and SARS-CoV2 in particular, is obscene. It’s easy money donated to an industry which has produced little benefit to humanity and has more often produced great harm.
Why not invest a £100 million into HCQ research? It’s a fraction of the amount given willy-nilly to drug companies whose attempts at producing a vaccine WILL fail because it has a history of failure. The cold, the flu, SARS, MERS, AIDS, Ebola etc. The definitive snake oil.
And they will be laughing all the way to the bank.

Thanks, Joe & Finn. We are at a watershed for modern medicine and vaccine research. Clearly, public health is not safe in the hands of unregulated and self-serving corporations.The FDA is corrupt/incompetent and not fit for purpose. Big Pharma lobbyists have corrupted the politicians. A truly independent body should be instituted to oversee the development, process and delivery of safer medicines because what exists today is a corrupt criminal enterprise. Am sure it isn’t just the US, but every major nation may have to reform their public health systems to place preventative medicine at the fore. Perhaps Pasteur’s Germ Theory has been finally exposed as false and we should look more at incorporating Antoine Bechamp’s Terrain Theory.

I also take note of your comment: ” Perhaps Pasteur’s Germ Theory has been finally exposed as false.”
A bold statement which I think is false. Logical and rational objective thought would favor a germ theory.

Hi Norm.
The research you have referenced records 500 milligrams administered twice on the first day and then a reduction of the daily dosage. This dosage level is quoted as being too high and toxic causing side effects including heart beat irregularities by many health professionals.
The recommended dosage is 200 milligrams twice a week plus the zinc etc. This dosage level has been fine tuned over a period of many decades.

Matt, I understand you mean well, but your dosage is off by a factor of 7. The recommended dosage of HCQ is not 200 mg twice per week. It is 200 mg twice per day for CV patients if I understand it right.

Hi Surak
You are most probably correct as there are many differing dosage rates of hydroxychloroquine recorded by differing medical practitioners and researchers.
The dosage rate I quoted is what I thought I heard one of the frontline doctors quote for pre infection treatment for protection or early stage infection. and of course there is much public narrative about toxic levels of dosage administered at the acute stage (near death) of infection with toxic outcomes.
The truth could be out there. I am not a doctor or researcher so people have to do their own research and cross references.
Kind regards Matt

I quote. “as a prophylactic take 200 milligrams of hydroxychloroquine twice a week and zinc daily.”
Another doctor quoted “one tablet every other week”. as a prophylactic protection for school teachers and those dealing with mass public. Frontline Doctors.

Norman, Old news and many say fake at that. Those rushed out studies never passed the smell test because they allegedly used similar improper methodologies as per the retracted Lancet paper. The correct means to use HCQ is in combination with ‘Z-pac’ (zinc and an antibiotic). I believe one or more of your studies was also accused of using cherry-picked data/samples to game the outcome against HCQ.

Based upon your post it seems the only information you would consider valid is based upon your own personal belief. Since you believe most the world to be corrupt and untrustworthy it seems you can create whatever information bubble you like to live in and reject all that does not conform to what you have told yourself is truthful.
https://www.ashp.org/-/media/assets/pharmacy-practice/resource-centers/Coronavirus/docs/ASHP-COVID-19-Evidence-Table.ashx?la=en&hash=B414CC64FD64E1AE8CA47AD753BA744EDF4FFB8C
Unlikely this information will alter your “truth bubble” but it is current and it shows considerable testing has been done with HCQ and after much testing the evaluation is that is is NOT the wonder cure you believe it to be. You can claim all these tests are bogus and that the medical world is totally corrupt. I do not think you bring any evidence to support this. It is mostly your opinions and personal view of the world. That in no way indicates you have a good grasp of the real world, but in your ‘truth bubble” it is the real world to you and some of the people who visit this blog.

I hope you can realize the difference between a survey and an actual clinical trial.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
If you look at death rate per million, the Nations that used HCQ most (Italy and Spain) did not have a reduced death rate but it was actually higher. Not sure what data proves your position correct. You say the clinical trials are rigged and bad data but you think a survey is some scientific “gold” standard. I think you might have to rethink what science is if that is your current belief.

Norman, having conducted three randomised controlled trials, I can confidently inform you that a clinical trial is very weak research design and can be rigged. In fact it often is, because the pharmaceutical companies fund the clinical trials. It would be interesting to see how many of them would actually found a randomised control trial.

Norman from your own cited paper —
So zinc has not been on any controlled trials but it is known that zinc along with vitamins C & D, the mineral selenium to be effective at warding off viral infections in people.
By your method no clinical trial equals no evidence of efficacy. However hundreds, if not thousands of doctors have seen and are still prescribing HCQ because it has proved to be effective with their patients. I also understand that when the original SARS virus (a virus that is very structurally close to COVID19) was treated HCQ was found to be one of the most effective drugs against the outbreak (look it up Norman).
So, let me rephrase you nonsense —
