But what's the efficacy delta for IV drip vs oral tablet?

Put another way, perhaps we can ask what's the equivalent dosage for say 1gm IV, if you prefer to take oral, to achieve the same efficacy, and is the equivalency linear - e.g. 10gm IV, being 10 times 1gm, may not be the same linear increment for an oral dose?

In any case, it's looking like Covid- "party like it's covid-99" -19, seems to be a catalyst for tests re using vitamin C for the flu:

> Over the last week or so, I have looked into a report from early February 2020 that pointed to an old anti-malarial drug chloroquine as impeding the reproduction of this COVID-19 virus "in vitro", meaning in the laboratory.   https://www.nature.com/articles/s41422-020-0282-0     (As opposed to "in vivo", in a human body.).   A similar report of this nature appeared in 2004.    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15351731
