    Oh, the one he had an investment in, and now is quiet about it because he could probably be sued if someone did it and was harmed because of it.

    Disappointed. We need every weapon we can get.

    But yeah, as for POTUS, if he was premature, that would be S.O.P. That's kind of his middle name.

    Ooooo... wait a minute...

    PremaDonald.

    I suspect quite a few true believers just lost their ass on that stock.

    It is an insult to Chloroqinue to be labelled a Trump virus drug.
    It has saved millions of lives for god's shake and now its reputation is Trump. :rolleyes: SAD!

    But I will be waiting to see the Solidarity trial which will be double blind and with thousands of patients before I give up on hydroxycholoroqinue.
    Simply because it is our best hope.

    Good luck waiting for remdesivir to be available for the people.

    Too late for that.

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/23/health/arizona-coronavirus-chloroquine-death/index.html

    A Phoenix-area man is dead and his wife is under critical care after the two took chloroquine phosphate in an apparent attempt to self-medicate for the novel coronavirus, according to hospital system Banner Health.

    It does not appear they took the pharmaceutical version of the drug, but rather "an additive commonly used at aquariums to clean fish tanks," Banner Health said in a statement.

    Though Banner did not provide additional details, NBC News spoke to the wife, who said they learned of chloroquine's connection to coronavirus during a President Donald Trump news conference, which "was on a lot actually." They took it because they "were afraid of getting sick," she said.

    Our slow boil into third world idiocracy

    Forget all the allegations and lawsuits, why don't we just give him a chance?

    Nah heh heh, he was just joking...he can't surely mean it

    What could it hurt to take it?

    “Many people said ...” is code for the Voices Inside the Head of Donald J Trump.

    Oh without a doubt. I think the Dems should actually run that actor in that outfit with that schtick in November. Would probably win all electoral votes for the first time in history.

    My boss’s father (65) got Covid and was completely out of his mind talking jibberish for days. He was incredibly sick overall. They were not expecting him to turn around, as his health looked pretty bad.

    They gave him the drug along with a Z pac and he turned around damn near instantly. Left the hospital 3 days later.

    Of course there needs to be more testing, but this damn virus is so strange and inconsistent. What works on one may not work on another until a real cure or vaccine is created.

    The extremely high death rate indicates they gave it too late in the disease's progression to people in bad situations. This study should be taken into account but it is certainly not evidence to completely write off a drug that has potential as the expert in france I heard said it must be given earlier on in the diseases progression. Anyway yall gleeful anti trumpers may hate the drug but a small VA study is not what i would hitch my wagon to. I would recommend waiting for more info. There is good reason for the drug combo actually but it is not some magic cure obvioisly.

    False. No idea why you think that this hasnt been rolled out on the front lines. Just trump isnt a doc so people in the media want to contradict him. Read up in this thread and you will see a real account.
