I've been watching Dr Oz a lot with all of my newfound free time and he was saying the government should be able to look up all of the medicaid people on that drug pretty easily and cross reference it with their Covid list.

It's probably too early for that research to have a significant finding but if a month from now none of them have it then that tells you something.

A family member of mine has RA and she (likely) contracted Covid-19, was symptomatic for about 2 weeks and has now recovered.

However, she was never officially tested. She travels a lot and caught it while in one of the early hot spots. She then traveled home, to BFE western US, and was sick at home.

She had all of the classic Covid-19 symptoms but was never hospitalized nor did she see a doctor.

Was she on HCQ? My mom has RA too but she is not on that medication.

Yes, I believe that she is currently on it.

If true this is good news. One would surmise maybe it kept her symptoms milder.

It also probably helped that she is in great shape. She has run several marathons.
