“That was stunning.”
Fox News’ Neil Cavuto was so shocked by President Donald Trump announcing he’s taking hydroxychloroquine that he took a few minutes to explicitly warn viewers about the risks of taking it.
At one point the president asked “what have you got to lose,” but as Cavuto said, “A number of studies, those certainly vulnerable in the population have one thing to lose, their lives. A VA study showed that among a population of veterans in a hospital receiving this treatment, those with vulnerable conditions, respiratory conditions, heart elements, they died.”
Cavuto read from a number of other studies about the effects of hydroxychloroquine and said, “Those who took it, in a vulnerable population, including those with respiratory or other conditions, they died. I want to stress again — they died. If you are in a risky population here and you are taking this as a preventative treatment to ward off the virus or, in a worst-case scenario, you are dealing with the virus, and you are in this vulnerable population, it will kill you. I cannot stress that enough. This will kill you.”
He also brought on Dr. Bob Lahita, chairman of medicine at St. Joseph University Hospital, who said he has seen “no effect whatsoever with this drug” on patients with COVID-19.
Lahita continued warning viewers about the serious risks, and at one point Cavuto just straight-up asked him, “The president says, ‘What have you got to lose? It sounds like what you’re saying, you have a risk of losing your life if you do about the president just recommended.”

UNLESS...he’s doing it to prove his point....and to shut these douche bags up!!! :)
Cavuto has been a snarky anti-Trumper for awhile. Now he is fully unmasked.
The poor Lupus people must be scared to death now.
Hope you don’t mind, but I’ll second your post.
He was never in the Trump column, nor were most of the Faux team. They bring a new level to suckage.
This guy was born an ass and has practiced to perfection. Worse interviewer on TV. Has an ego bigger then Asia.
the risks or sideeffeccts of this medicine are very, very well know. and you can only get it by medical prescription. i am confident that PDJT has good doctors so I am not worried
What? Did Trump announce it in front of a dirty aquarium?
Neil should chill.
I’ve taken the drug multiple times for when I’ve worked in India, South America, and Africa.
