HCQ is still banned in NY for those not confirmed for the virus AND hospitalized.
Pharmacies in NY WILL NOT fill prescriptions unless for lupus or other previously approved applications.
There are almost 120,000 active cases in NY. About 4,000 are being treated with HCQ.
Right, it isn’t banned, they are just prioritizing it for those in highest need. If there is enough to expand distribution to confirmed cases, but not hospitalized, they should do it.
