A new survey from Jackson & Coker shows an overwhelming majority of doctors would prescribe hydroxychloroquine or another anti-malaria drug to a family member suffering from Wuhan coronavirus.

"Sixty-five percent of physicians across the United States said they would prescribe the anti-malaria drugs chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine to treat or prevent COVID-19 in a family member," the survey, which questioned 1,271 doctors in 50 states, found. "Only 11 percent said they would not use the drug at all."

In addition, a significant number of doctors said they would prescribe the drugs to those exposed to the virus as a preventative measure and would take it themselves if they became sick from the disease.

"Thirty-percent of the surveyed doctors said they would prescribe the medications to a family member prior to the onset of symptoms if they had been exposed to COVID-19," they found. "Sixty-seven percent of surveyed physicians said they would take the medications themselves to treat COVID-19. Fifty-six percent said they would take the anti-malarial if they displayed symptoms and another 11 percent said they would take the medications if they got very sick from the virus."

According to their website, Jackson & Croker is a "top healthcare staffing firm with nationwide reach, specializing in locum tenens, locums-to-permanent and telehealth staffing" and works with "healthcare organizations big and small to find them the right physicians and advanced practitioners to provide quality patient care."

“Working in healthcare, we’ve learned the best way to get a candid perspective on treatment options from a physician is to ask: ‘Would you give this to your family?’” Jackson & Coker President Tim Fischer released in a statement. “Families across the U.S. and the world really, want to know what they can do to protect and save their loved ones."

“When a medical crisis like this emerges, the voice of physicians needs to be heard. Their insight is powerful for families faced with uncertainty," he continued.

A number of physicians across the country are currently treating Wuhan coronavirus patients with these drugs and are seeing positive results.

Lame stream: “Using HCQS is playing Russian roulette with your health. And is making Trump richer too.”

“Liebensraum”

As someone who knows the language, your typo is amusing - what you typed is “loving space.” :)

Someone should ask Dr. Scarf if she would give it to her mother.

No profit in the Hydroxychloroquine for the lefties. They can’t exppoit it. Plus it threatens to ruin their fantasy of a green uptopia.

From this article: "Sixty-seven percent of surveyed physicians said they would take the medications themselves to treat COVID-19..."

From a R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company ad: “More doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette.”

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.
