Then we find out one of the persons who is being pushed out as a "hero" by the Washington Post in this paragraph:

___________________________________________________________________________________

Rick Bright, former director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, told Congress Thursday that political pressure forced "dozens of federal scientists" to spend a harried 48-hour stretch rushing to put together a protocol for approving hydroxychloroquine for widespread use in covid-19 patients. Ultimately, that approach wasn't taken. The FDA issued an emergency authorization for hospitalized covid-19 patients who cannot participate in a clinical trial.

Bull. All the other countries are using it. Corona is sort of like strep. Lots of different stuff will kill it. Hydroxy too. But big pharma doesn’t want that answer. It won’t make them any money.

This is the one that has been safely used for decades, right?

I read the first two “studies”. They were both DESIGNED to have HCL fail.
So yes, if you give a patient on the verge of death HCL then it is associated with death.

I submit that we CANNOT accept as our president a D if one (God Forbid) wins in November

The win could not be considered legitimate when the press is part of the dem party.

I don’t know what the answer is and hopefully, and I think so, one will not have to be found as Trump will win.

But come on guys this is a joke.

This country as a republic is becoming a joke.

MSM is state dictated, the deep state controls so much..and so many more things make us less a republic with each year that goes by.

Even with Trump winning things might get ugly.

But at least we will have the POTUS on our side.

This is all so out of hand

Hydroxychloroquine was approved for medical use in the United States in 1955. It is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines, the safest and most effective medicines needed in a health system. This from Wikipedia

President Donald Trump repeatedly pitched hydroxychloroquine as a safe and effective treatment for coronavirus

Fake premise. Also, don't huff bleach.

Rigged study - used it on people too late - you have to use it earlier on, used it on really old people - it doesn’t work on really old people, ran by a guy pushing a different and very expensive drug

This is what Big Pharma and deep state propaganda looks like. Over 100 countries rushing to use it and are doing so successfully. Prescriptions in France have increased 7000%. Not a lie typo.

Ha! There is always a risk to every drug. And everyone who has died since March had Covid on their death certificate.

Man, I hate the title. Instead of “promoted” why not tell the truth: “On the basis of information provided by doctors treating COVID-19 patients in the field, President Trump announced their findings and suggests...” He “promoted” it based upon the advice given to him by doctors. This sounds like he’s selling it out of the back of a horse-drawn wagon in the Old West.

Good personal doc tors know their patients and the risks for each patient. They should prescribe in in their own best judgment.

Strange, don’t remember ever even 1 mention of deaths from this drug in the 60’s. Since the Army made me take the drug while I was overseas, how long before the lawyers start piling on with class action suits? Maybe they could piggyback one with the earplug suits since they failed to provide earplugs back then too. /sarc off

In fine print : “certain patients”

Even Tylenol can be lethal to “certain patients” (liver problems). Every drug is depending on dosage and comorbidities, and HCQ is very dose sensitive. But of course this isn’t about HCQ or its effectiveness.

Let's compare the standard malaria treatment dosages to the COVID-19 treatment dosages:

East Virginia Medical School COVID-19 Protocol
Mildly Symptomatic patients (on hospital floor)
Hydroxychloroquine 400 mg BID* day 1 followed by 200 mg BID for 4 days
Total dose: 1,200 mg over five days
* BID = twice a day

Drugs.com Malaria Protocol
800 mg salt (620 mg base) orally as an initial dose, followed by 400 mg salt (310 mg base) at 6, 24, and 48 hours after the initial dose
Total dose: 2,000 mg salt (1,550 mg base) over 4 days

The COVID-19 total dose is 60% of the malaria total dose and it is spread out over a 25% longer treatment time.

(I do not know how to convert salt and base or if the COVID treatment is salt or base.)

Penicillin linked to deaths.

Chemotherapy linked to deaths.

Tylenol linked to deaths.

Washington Post? Really. Stand how MSNBC, CNN and this toilet rag are always being quoted as if they are reputable sources. Waste of time!
