SARS-Cov2 may cause thrombosis, i.e. blood clots, in infected patients.
HCQ may prevent the blood clots that lead to so many poor outcomes with Covid-19: https://thrombosisjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12959-018-0165-5
Can a sodium imbalance lead to thrombosis in general? Yep. https://www.onlinejacc.org/content/75/23/2950
Does SARS-Cov2 interfere with regulation of sodium in cells? Yep. http://archive.is/dSAT6#selection-995.0-995.447
Are the elderly at more risk of dying of Covid-19? Yes. http://archive.is/ePYdo
FactJack: The completely novel feature of SARS-Cov2 to interfere with sodium levels is all the evidence you need it was bio-engineered to affect older patients who are more susceptible to blood clots.
Does the Republican Party have an older voter problem? Yep.
"Voting Republican has become an activity analogous to watching an episode of Matlock with a tall glass of Metamucil: ordinary for the elderly, but a marker of eccentricity among the young.
In 2016, Donald Trump commanded the support of only 28 percent of voters under 30, according to Pew Research. His disapproval rating among Americans under 35 currently hovers around 70 percent. And millennials’ antipathy for our Republican president isn’t personal; the Fox News grandpa-in-chief might be especially unappealing to the rising generation, but the kids don’t have much use for the GOP’s kinder, gentler reactionaries, either. Less than 30 percent of millennials wanted Republicans to retain control of Congress last year. And in broader measures of generational opinion, both millennials and Gen-Zers evince higher levels of support for liberal ideological premises and policy proposals than any older cohorts.
This trend — and the challenges it poses for the Republican Party — have been widely discussed. And some conservative pundits have found comfort in the fact that, as millennials have moved left, graying baby-boomers have shuffled right. This might be a lousy trade in the long run (since, in the long run, boomers will all be dead). But in the immediate term, the GOP has derived a good deal of benefit from age polarization, as older voters cast ballots at much higher rates than the young ones do."
