    Trump is so irresponsible and a danger to public health. States, it’s in your hand when to open up and you are responsible for everything. To my dumb members, go mess up their plan.

    I wish them luck. If it works great. Hopefully there won’t be too many negative side effects

    A small study in Brazil was halted early for safety reasons after coronavirus patients taking a higher dose of chloroquine developed irregular heart rates that increased their risk of a potentially fatal heart arrhythmia.

    Yeah, unless South Dakota is just trying to score Trump points, I really don't get it.
    Remdesivir has better data so far and fewer side effects, from what I understand. Why wouldn't you try that? The trick is getting it to people soon enough.

    But is this where we want to be: actual chemical compounds will now have party affiliations? LOL. God help us. Please follow the data folks.

    I would pay good money to watch a firefighting plane drop 7000 gallons of rubbing alcohol on those people.

    If testing is the key to overcoming COVID-19 and opening the country back up, why aren't we testing more?

    But no, its not a republican political effort... featuring the republican (voss) made famous telling people the virus wasn't dangerous while fully protected (gown, mask gloves). And here's a republican sheriff telling people he wouldn't enforce the law protecting citizen's health...

    Republican lawmakers are planning to ask the Supreme Court to block Evers' stay-at-home order extension

    I agree with this, we can't have people deciding which citizens can and can't earn an income who themselves are earning an income.

    Leads to horribly perverse incentives.
