Vladimir Zelenko, a medical doctor in the United States, has
narrated how he treated hundreds of coronavirus patients with anti-malaria
drugs with no death recorded.
Zelenko, who has been in the news following his claims about
the use of hydroxychloroquine in treating the infection, said he has used the
drug to treat 450 to 500 patients.
In an interview with Rudy Giuliani, former mayor of New
York, the doctor said he combined hydroxychloroquine in a regimen with two
other drugs after learning about the therapy being used in South Korea and
France.
He said he has been treating coronavirus patients for over a
week in Kiryas Joel, a New York village, and that none of those he has so far
managed has died.
“I’ve had zero patients died, zero patients intubated and
three currently admitted with pneumonia,” he said, adding: “I’ve treated 450 to
500 patients, one third of which were from outside (the village).”
On how he administers his treatment, Zelenko said: “I
blended the two treatments from South Korea and France and made a three drug
regimen which are hydroxychloroquine, which is the common denominator by both treatments,
then I used zinc, and azithromycin.
“The virus gets inside the cell and begins to hijack the
cell industrial machinery. It is well known that zinc interrupts that. So, the
concept is that it interferes in the replication of the virus.
“But the problem with zinc is that it does not get inside
the cell very easily, only very small percent gets in. What is interesting is
that hydroxychloroquine is a ionic core; so it is the key that opens the canal
and facilitates the work of the zinc.
“When you have a severe viral infection, it is well known
that you can get a secondary infection, so I believe the zithromax is there as
a precaution and if there begins a bacteria process, it kills it before it
causes a bigger problem.”
The doctor further said he does not treat people with minor
symptoms and that his patients are increasing because “I am the only doctor
that seem to be doing it and one of the first, if not the first.”
He said young people have a high chance of surviving the
virus, adding: “If your immune system is strong enough, statistically it has
been proven you will recover. It may be miserable for two weeks but you will
recover, you will be fine.”
The Washington Post had quoted Zelenko as acknowledging that
the drugs he is administering “could have side effects.”
On Monday, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
approved the emergency use of hydroxychloroquine for treatment of patients with
coronavirus.
The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and
Control (NAFDAC) also directed the manufacturing of chloroquine, a similar
anti-malaria drug, for emergency stock for “possible clinical treatment of
coronavirus.”
