State Sen. Scott Jensen, a medical doctor, reports that pharmacists wont fill hydroxychloroquine prescriptions for patients battling coronavirus.
Gov. Tim Walz has rescinded his March Executive Order 20-23, which effectively barred pharmacists from filling hydroxychloroquine prescriptions written to treat COVID-19. Despite this, Jensen says that pharmacists hes contacted still wont fill hydroxychloroquine prescriptions for patients suffering from the virus.
I got on the phone and called pharmacists and said if I write this hydroxychloroquine [prescription] will you fill it? And I was told no, Jensen explained in a video he posted to Twitter on Friday.
I said, youve been filling my scripts for decades and decades and now you say no, why? the senator continued, further describing his conversation with pharmacists.
It was clear that they [the pharmacists] were fearful, but what they said was well it might set a precedent, the board might not like it, maybe well run out, he said.
Alpha News was not able to independently verify Jensens claim that pharmacists refuse to fill prescriptions written for hydroxychloroquine. However, he does not seem to be alone doctors in other areas have also been denied the ability to use the drug.
A hospital in Michigan was told that it could not use hydroxychloroquine to treat coronavirus patients in its care, according to local media.
Although hydroxychloroquine has not been officially approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat COVID-19, Jensen and many others stand behind its off label use to treat the virus.
When doctors prescribe a drug to treat a condition that it was not specifically approved by the FDA to remedy, that prescription is considered off label. Up to one in five prescriptions are written for off-label purposes, according to the American Medical Associations Journal of Ethics.
Who will start bringing continual lawsuits against these murderers?

That’s what I’ve been wondering.
Our DOJ certainly doesn’t seem interested.
Judicial Watch???
Do pharmacists have carte blanche to veto any prescription order they receive, just because they have some objection to a specific medicine? Imagine the uproar if they refused to fill prescriptions for contraceptives.
That is exactly my question.
So if the Minnesota mosquitos give me malaria Im out of luck?

Use of HCQ ok’d for wuhanvirus, but pharmacists refusing to fill prescriptions.
Ping!!!
Every one of then could lose their license if they got a
script for it.
When the first lawsuit is filed, they will have a change of heart. Unfortunately it will mean that someone will have died.
If the pharmacy denied a prescription for insulin or heart medicine without legal justification, and the patient died, lawyers would salivate over the thought of taking that case (or more likely settling it for big money). Particularly when there is no longer a law forbidding the prescription.
Maybe he should say he needs it for malaria patient.
The lying America-hating FDA and CDC did this.
MDs are ignored with pharmacists
bowing the knee to GateXi, Xi, and FauXi
who do not have a medical license in their state
(or any other).
If there was any doubt on the effectiveness of HCQ you just have to look at the graph of Swiss deaths vs. their temporary prohibition. They outlawed it and about 12 days later the COVID death rate went up. They then legalized it and the death rate went down again 12 days later.

A lawsuit against anyone associated with big pharma is a slam dunk. Cube that in the People’s Republic of Minnesoeta!

Hopefully these Pharmacists will be pauperized by lawsuits.
[[[Who will start bringing continual lawsuits against these murderers?]]]
That’s right. Start the lawsuits. Sue the crap out of these lunatics.
I believe any doctor that does not do his or her best to save a patient’s life, should be shot by the family.
It’s the same in NC
