Precisely, Steve. A drug-free protocol that might have saved over 99% of those for whom COVID was the predominant condition already has been developed very early on, in the summer of 2020, but was censored.
Dr. David Brownstein's nutritional and oxidative protocol brought about full recovery of all of his 107 patients so treated within 9 days of intervention. The fact none died is unremarkable among such a small number, but the absence of even a single long COVID case among them among any group of 107 if very remarkable indeed. Not one

I used a very similar protocol, along with elderberry and very hot baths, especially the one afternoon I had a fever, to quickly and easily kick COVID to the curb, and I didn't even make a full effort to shut it down completely straight away, so as to have provable t-cell immunity. I'm still mighty annoyed that this protocol that evidently has greater efficacy than any drugs, even HCQ and Ivermectin, is so obscure.
