New York will start trials for anti-malaria drug Tuesday, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said The drug, hydroxychloroquine is used to treat malaria, as well as some non-infectious inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis Several people have come forward saying the drug has helped fight COVID-19 Rio Giardinieri, of Florida, said the drug 'saved his life' after he testes positive Margaret Novins, of New Jersey, also said the medication made her feel better There are currently no approved treatments or preventive vaccines for the virus Researchers are studying existing treatments and working on experimental ones, but current patients receive only supportive care like breathing assistance Coronavirus symptoms: what are they and should you see a doctor?
People across the US have come forward to call the anti-malaria drug a 'miracle' coronavirus treatment as New York state officials announce they will start trials with the medication on Tuesday.
On Monday, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said the state will doctors will start trialing hydroxychloroquine this week after the number of coronavirus cases in New York City alone rose to 12,000, an increase of more than 3,000 overnight.
The drug has not yet been proven as effective in battling the virus, but President Donald Trump drummed up excitement over it when he called it a 'game changer' last week.
Dr Anthony Fauci, the White House coronavirus expert, said more work was needed before it could be heralded as a solution.
But people like Rio Giardinieri, Margaret Novins and Lost star Daniel Dae Kim are praising the drug for saving their lives.
Here are some of the infected patients who have credited the medication for the improvement in their condition.

'Miracle' malaria drug touted by Trump saved me from coronavirus, claim Americans: Infected patients across US say hydroxychloroquine helped them recover despite experts' insistence evidence of its effectiveness is slim
The media telling us to stop believing our eyes.
Yes.... let a British Paper inform us as our media is busy helping the Dems derail financial aide.
Apparently it was not anecdotal to him
Why do Trumps enemies want to make people think this treatment wont work?
Only very special people can see more bodies than any other flu.

Hydroxychloroquine is being slow walked ... until 1000 per treatment drugs can get FDA approval. The cure is too inexpensive, so sheeple must be diverted from knowing a cure and excellent prophylaxis is available NOW. Every healthcare worker in the US should be on 200mg per day with a zinc supplement.
OH MY GOSH!!!! That’s the drug that makes everyone a zombie!
That normal for them. It’s a cheap off-patent cure. If they stall long enough they will make billions off of the vaccine that isn’t ready yet. Money is way more important than lives. Yes, they can even sleep at night.
the plural of ‘anecdote’ is not ‘data’
Winner winner.
Until the Elected can get into the right stock buys we shall not see a vaccine.
Yes, they can even sleep at night.
I don’t know why it is certain lines just make me laugh out... .
“...The cure is too inexpensive, so sheeple must be diverted from knowing a cure and excellent prophylaxis is available NOW. ...”
Yep. Makes one wonder what the rotten, evil SOBs have done with cancer cures/treatments over the years. Can’t allow a cure to be made known to the unwashed masses because we can make trillions off the treatment?
This thing is not nearly done, it spreads three times more quickly, and there is no guaranteed cure, and no one has been vaccinated. Other than that, it is no big deal, right?
However, hydroxychloroquine is a possible cure, together with zythromycin. so by the grace of God we may get out of this.
Ever wonder how RBG has recovered from pancreatic cancer at her age, or Jimmy Carter of brain cancer at 89 years old just sayin!! If Steve Jobs had not decided on his own to go to holistic healing he would be walking around today!!!
It is sad that there are no Universities left in America where a study to determine if this hydroxychloroquine and zinc regimen can destroy any virus due to the way it stops the replication process so the immune system can clean up the battlefield. But that’s the decline of science we are witness to.
This virus should have put a silver bullet in the back of this administration. Luckily Trump dodged the bullet by cutting off China border. This was a genius move that nobody will credit him for.
Nobody who has been taking hydroxychloroquine has contracted it so far and the data on that goes back to the early quarantined cruise ships.
So I won’t be getting it.
You chose not to take existing precautions it is on you and you alone. Your choice, not some unavoidable circumstance warranting the current economy destroying draconian Madness.
Your rights end where your hysteria impinges on my freedom.
Well, if he supports it, and it ends up working, he might end up looking good. Plus, they want to wreck everything as much as possible between now and November.
