"Dr. Ananda Prasad of West Bloomfield Township and his wife, Aryabala, who is also a doctor, began to get sick at the same time a few weeks ago, he said, but they both appear to have recovered.

"Things are looking up," Prasad added during a Thursday interview. "I am much better today than I was yesterday."

Prasad, a medical doctor who spent his career researching the mineral zinc, said he and his wife used the same treatment of zinc and hydroxychloroquine, a malaria drug that is being studied as a treatment for the coronavirus."
