Mayo Clinic: Sometimes Hydroxychloroquine sometimes works on Covid, after all
Twitchy.com ^ | 9/25/2023 | Aaron Walker

Well, this is something:

Yeah, we need some new ones

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) September 25, 2023

Before you ask, we checked. We found the site they are referring to and it says exactly what is pictured. It says:

Hydroxychloroquine may also be used to treat coronavirus (COVID-19) in certain hospitalized patients. …

Hydroxychloroquine should only be used for COVID-19 in a hospital or during clinical trials. Do not take any medicine that contains hydroxychloroquine unless prescribed by your doctor.

Now, there are tons of warnings on that website that we are not quoting, and you would be foolish to take this drug without talking to your doctor, first, and without obeying his or her instructions to the letter, reading the warnings, etc. But we’re old enough to remember back when people claimed this drug never helped with the Wuhan Flu and now the Mayo Clinic is singing a different tune.

From Mayo Clinic website grudging admission of glaring truth: "Hydroxychloroquine may be used to treat coronavirus (COVID-19) in certain hospitalized patients." For all you murderers at @CNN @johnberman who spread lies about hydroxy, this one's for u.https://t.co/3FYTqCZ6QF

— Peter Navarro (@RealPNavarro) September 24, 2023

Mr. Navarro linked to the Mayo Clinic web page in question.

At the White House, I had a million tablets of hydroxy that could have saved thousands of lives but @cnn crusaded against it to beat @realDonaldTrump . Negligent homicide at a minimum. @fda was also implicated in hydroxy suppression. https://t.co/P1Iif39FZ5

🚨Mayo Clinic quietly updates website to say Hydroxychloroquine can be used to treat Covid patients

Doctors were fired and censored for saying this

Media smeared it

All because Big Pharma couldn’t have any therapeutic drugs available in order to make billions from vaccine EUA https://t.co/0jG2B0Q8gY pic.twitter.com/e6pG5Qo8qh

— DC_Draino (@DC_Draino) September 24, 2023

Gotta love this: First the FDA surreptitiously announces that ivermectin can be prescribed for COVID, and now Mayo clinic is tacitly endorsing Hydroxychloroquine. This is what I call "Quietly trying to get on the #RightSideOfHistory" before the trials begin! #FActsNotFear…

— Kelly Victory MD (@DrKellyVictory) September 23, 2023

The cut off text is simply a link to the Mayo Clinic website.

They mocked, ridiculed and called you a conspiracy nut for daring to talk about Hydroxychloroquine being an alternative treatment for Covid and now the Mayo clinic is saying exactly that!

I guess it's ok to say now that Pharma got their billions.

Please don’t insert curse words. It makes it harder for us to us your Twitter/X post on Twitchy!

If I’m not mistaken, a requirement of emergency authorization is no available treatment options. Having a cheap & affordable treatment readily available would have impeded the greatest wealth transfer in history and it didn’t matter who had to be ruined or die to see it through. https://t.co/G9sHbXcsur

— The Redheaded libertarian (@TRHLofficial) September 25, 2023

We have seen this claim that there had to be no treatment alternatives, but we have not found the regulation that says that. But considering how vast the Code of Federal Regulations is, it is very possible that the regulations are there and we just can’t find it.

That being said, even if it is not spelled out in the regulations, it is logically easier to justify an emergency use of a vaccine if there is no effective treatment. Emergency measures are easier to justify if you have no alternatives.

The @TGAgovau in Australia ordered 5 million does of Hydroxychloroquine that was ordered into the country by @CliveFPalmer destroyed. https://t.co/Tq2qSCiW2i

PSA: Inconvenient truth.

In early March of 2020 I got covid. I could not breathe. My doctor in France (ex-pat Boston U MD) told me to take HCQ. I had gotten it weeks earlier from a friend who owns pharmacies in Mexico as it was taken off the shelves in USA and I read about its… https://t.co/S53UtmhDyB

The full text reads—with the caveat that we have no way of verifying if he is telling the truth:

PSA: Inconvenient truth.

In early March of 2020 I got covid. I could not breathe. My doctor in France (ex-pat Boston U MD) told me to take HCQ. I had gotten it weeks earlier from a friend who owns pharmacies in Mexico as it was taken off the shelves in USA and I read about its SUCCESSFUL use in South Korea early on. It worked amazing for me and over 120 of his patients in Paris. Among thousands of other doctors and dozens of countries that used it.

In the USA, as well as UK, it was forbidden to be proclaimed as a potential remedy. Removed from all pharmacies.

If they had admitted it worked, the Emergency Use Authorization of rushed vaccines would have been illegal. If they had admitted it worked to prevent hospitalization 100's of thousands of lives would have been saved. (same is true for Ivermectin)

If I had posted this at any time on Twitter (pre X) I'd have been censored or lost my account.

Hydroxychloroquine is still, and has been, known to work well to prevent and treat Covid-19 in early stages, pre hospitalization.

Mayo Clinic has HCQ approved for hospitalized patients (which is often too late) but hey... I'm not a doctor so this is not medical advice, rely on your doctors advice, this is just an Inconvenient Truth.

Unverified, but fascinating.

So what happens to the doctors who were sanctioned for prescribing it?? https://t.co/N2JpoAzF5h pic.twitter.com/rcnj5JpFqY

— Sebastian Gorka DrG (@SebGorka) September 25, 2023

Unsurprisingly, @RealPNavarro has no idea what the Mayo Clinic actually said. And the idea that doctors in ICUs are going to make medical decisions with critically ill pts based on CNN reports is crazy. But what do studies actually say, and why is hydro use so limited? Well... https://t.co/ooHIIfOJnm pic.twitter.com/UiHsAMVctp

— Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 24, 2023

We’re waiting to learn about Kurt’s medical degree. (That's sarcasm. His self-written bio mentions none.) He goes on in a long thread but he lost me right at his 'who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?' routine. We have seen the website. We have saved the page in case it is stealth-edited. And we do know enough about medical regulation that it is unfathomable that they would say it can be used to treat the Wuhan Flu in some cases if it can't ever be used that way.

Peter is leaving out one very important fact, this is only effective in very certain and limited cases. https://t.co/N66rbX9eIc

— KimmyAnne (@mommadukes10704) September 25, 2023

He literally linked to the Mayo Clinic website. Kimmy is quoting from his quote post of his own post, but if you go back to the first tweet he also quoted from the Mayo Clinic website: "Hydroxychloroquine may be used to treat coronavirus (COVID-19) in certain hospitalized patients." Kimmy's criticism is invalid.

And, for the record, we are not sure an actual conspiracy theory is necessary. Conspiracies, as you will recall, require agreement. A group of people sharing a bias, therefore, is not a conspiracy. Honestly, it seemed at the time that for a certain media elite anything Trump said was presumptively not only wrong but dangerous. We can understand why someone might think that Trump picked every word with care, but the correct response when you don’t trust someone at all is to be indifferent to what they say. But it looks like at least part of the rejection of the possibility that Hydroxychloroquine might work was inverse confirmation bias. "Trump said it, so it couldn't be true, so let's find some people who will tell us what we want to hear."

At the very least, this reminds us of the importance of being open minded about things.

Big pharma not only demands we use vaccines that are at best ineffective, and at worst, dangerous, but they and corrupt bureaucrats want to arrest and censor those who promote real cures. How long do we tolerate this garbage?

What is the date of this web entry?

Many hospitals, including Mass General and University of Washington had HCQ on their COVID treatment protocols in the late Winter 2019-20 and Spring of 2020.

If this is a new posting it’s quite interesting - but I bet it’s from 2020.

Plaquenil, (hydroxychlorquine) is routinely prescribed for Lupus. The people I know taking Plaquenil did catch Covid but they had only minor symptoms.

My daughter in law got CoVid while she was in France, and was given hydroxychloroquine by the pharmacist there. No prescription needed. Of course, she got better within days.

During the initial Covid-crazies, a nurse friend told me that if the doctor she worked for prescribed anything other than what the CDC recommends for Covid he would face the possibility of losing his license and his access to the facilities where he practiced. (Thinking back, not sure what that means as my regular doctors could not see me while I was in the hospital as I was under the care of (it seemed like) The Marx Brothers.)

I’ve read later that some doctors who were damaged by the medical establishment for what they prescribed have won their cases, but most people can’t afford to suddenly lose their income for any period.

When I told my doctor who was pushing the “vaccine” that I would prefer to get Covid and just treat the symptoms, he changed the subject. Apparently, this is what the nurse referred to as forbidden by the CDC.

Fake news? MSM response is that this is from a web page last updated in May, 2020, three and a half years ago, before HCQ was suppressed.

The treatment that Trump got for mentioning that this drug was a possibile treatment was criminal. People should go to prison for what they did.

How many people did you kill by maligning HCQ when it could have done some good?

You greedy bastards have blood on your hands.

--- "But we're old enough to remember back when people claimed this drug never helped with the Wuhan Flu and now the Mayo Clinic is singing a different tune."

The hysterical "messaging" push for profits for the few and well-connected was insistent -- and now wrong. Trust has been broken for many of us, and it will take much for the government and medical industry to earn it back.

All for a SARS CoV2 given a scary name, manipulated taxonomy, and after 3 1/2 years a proven mortality rate using official government numbers of a meager one-tenth of one percent across that entire time.

Remember the messaging? 3.4 percent per year! Safe and effective! And the laughable "two weeks...."

We're "old" enough to remember....

Plaquenil, (hydroxychlorquine) is routinely prescribed for Lupus and other autoimmune ailments.

I know a couple of people who have such issues, take plaquenil for them, and not only never got the Wuhanic Plague they also very rarely get any other type of respiratory infection.

Yep. And recently an FDA spokesperson testified that “Gee, no, we never said doctors couldn’t prescribe Ivermectin.”

The amount and organization levels of collusion had to be massive. International Media, Big Pharma, medical, governmental.

And the only ones to lose their jobs were those advocating for 'real' science and 'real medicine, not some cocked-up flu vaccine.

The cover-ups and intentional misinformation should be criminal.
