choloroquine is not a trivial drug. large amounts of it can have ugly side effects and can be quite toxic. exposing everyone to the virus and then slamming them with choloroquine is not a viable option.

Agreed, but most of the side effects go away once you stop treatment, or only occur with long term use.
