I'm really worried about my dad. It's been about 40 days since he tested positive for COVID-19, and now his CRP is at 10. Does that seem high to you? He's had a fever between 99 and 101 for the last 5 days. Could this be related to his CRP levels? I've got his CBP, CRP, and D-dimer reports here. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I've been hearing a lot about using HCQ 200 MG as a way to boost immunity against Covid. I'm wondering if it's safe to take it twice a week for that purpose. Could this really help, and are there any risks I should be aware of? I'm curious because I've seen mixed opinions online and want to make sure it's a good idea before considering it.
