“...I think a bunch of powerful people have invested heavily in the above companies. This creates an incentive to suppress any treatment which does not result in them making money.....”
Exactly. Always follow the money trail. These “powerful people” also love the “treatment” of cancer rather than an “actual cure”. Unless, of course, it’s one of those greedy SOBs that come down with it.
The better bet might be the vaccine folks down the line. Even if there are treatments, prevention will still be in play.
I think the entire Rat party is terrified that it WILL work and they are moving swiftly to ban it everywhere.
This from the party of medical cannabis.
Hilarious if it wasn’t sickening. Literally.
“This creates an incentive to suppress any treatment which does not result in them making money. “
There are many medicines that are no longer have patent protection and yet still are manufactured.
I think you’re right about that. There’s a whole institutional infrastructure that’s built to ignore anything that’s not currently patented.
BUT not everyone is bad. Bayer recently gave the US Government 3,000,000 Chloroquine tablets of which 750,000 were sent to NYC. Novartis stated they have 50,000,000 doses on hand with another 80,000,000 doses to be ready by May. (according to the Conservative Treehouse)
ping regarding financial incentive to suppress hydroxychloroquine treatments
Sorry, couldn't help myself. Been in the house too long
This is all we need to know. Living in one of the capitals of Big Pharma, it is plain to see how money rules the day. Our former Presidential candidate St. Booker could not resist the temptation of Big Pharma money and lost his virtue to them in a back alley some where in Newark. One of the nails in his progressive presidential coffin.
Of course, the powers that be will want the win to go to a company with pubic shares rather than to the people whose lives could be saved by a widely available, cheap cure.

Yup. and the new medications and vaccines will be foisted on the public assuming they are safe without proper testing because ‘it’s an emergency’. After all it will not be shown they aren’t safe. ‘Don’t test don’t tell’
So how can we keep publicity up for this cheap and simple treatment? I already see it being downplayed in the press. We need powerful spokespeople to keep speaking out about it and encouraging doctors to use it.
Bingo! One reason why I wished the president would’ve ordered the clinical trials in a red state! Ny is going to screw him!! Cuomo has higher up inspirations!! AYE! I hope I’m wrong but I have a gut feeling chloroquine will be proclaimed as a failure by the mayor and governor of NY. Pray I’m wrong though..but the rats are evil and it’s all about power and the hell with the dying folk!! THEY ARE EVILLLL!!
Now is not the time to make a killing. Provide honest services at reasonable cost. Make your damn fortune when the crisis is over. This is why so many people have a negative opinion of the Investor Class.
Keeping in mind that it takes a billion dollars and ten years to bring a drug to market (cut this in half if the FDA will fast track it):
Suppose Dastardly Evil Pharmaceuticals Inc., LLC, makes a profit of one cent on a tablet of hydroxychloroquine. If it had a billion tablets on hand, it could sell them tomorrow at a clear, straight to the bottom line profit of ten million dollars.
What management in its right mind would forgo ten million dollars in profit right now, in order to risk a billion dollars to bring a drug to market years after this hysteria is over?

New drug discovery is a long expensive process and pharma companies only have 20 years (patent life) to earn back their R&D costs before anyone can just copy it. So there has to be an incentive to investor we won’t have new drugs, and that incentive is the ability to earn profits for their shareholders and principals.
Unless you want to depend on government to do drug development, with it’s typical “efficiency”.
I have trouble pronouncing “chloroquine” so I just call them “Trump Pills.”
So all demonic politicians funded by evil drug companies are banning it.
I’m glad you highlighted that one section in bold.
Why?
Because hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine phosphate are essentially the same drug.
If anyone is curious why this is relevant, just read my recent posts on this matter.
tl;dr - That couple in AZ took a valid drug - not actually dangerous. They just ODed on it by taking a lethal dose.
Gee. That will be a shame.
