Yep, I figure the doctors are buried right now. I sent it to my PCP also, along with a paper that came out 2 days ago entitled:

In Vitro Antiviral Activity and Projection of Optimized Dosing Design of Hydroxychloroquine for the Treatment of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)

You can find it by Googling.

In the paper they discuss the use of Hydroxychloroquine (brand name = Plaquenil) at more length.

Also, a really FANTASTIC resource is a YouTube channel entitled MedCram. Run by a multi-boarded MD who is great at explaining the nitty-gritty and keeping everyone up to date. That's where I found this Plaquenil info.
