A preeminent infectious disease specialist told Laura Ingraham last night that the combo use of Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin are a game changer and that he seriously believes this is the beginning of the end of this pandemic:

Dr. Stephen Smith starts by pointing out that none of his patients who’ve been on the Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin combo for four to five days or more have needed intubation, meaning they are in respiratory failure and need the use of a ventilator. He said for those that were intubated, it happened in the first two days of treatment.
As the tweet suggests, Smith called this combo an absolute game changer and suggested it agrees with the french stats as well.
He actually interrupted Laura as she was signing off the interview to tell how much of a game changer he believes this is, saying “I think this is the beginning of the end of the pandemic. I’m very serious.”
