Gohmert says he will take hydroxychloroquine as COVID-19 treatment
The Hill ^ | 07 29 2020 | Rebecca Klar

Posted on 07/29/2020 8:11:19 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) said Wednesday he will take an anti-malaria drug that experts have warned doesn’t treat the coronavirus after he tested positive for the virus.

"My doctor and I are all in," Gohmert said about hydroxychloroquine during a Wednesday evening interview with Fox News, according to Newsweek.

"I got a text before I came on from a friend doctor who just found out he had it, and he started the regimen too — zinc and hydroxychloroquine. And that will start in a day or two, so thank you," the congressman added.

Congressional aides confirmed Wednesday that Gohmert, who has largely opted against wearing a mask around the Capitol, tested positive for COVID-19.

Just so long as he doesn't try it in Ohio.

Hydroxychloroquine banned by Ohio pharmacy board for coronavirus treatment

But at least The Devil's Weed is still legal as medicine for just about everything.

Just tell your doctor that you think you were exposed to Malaria.

IF the truth be known, probably ALL the RATs have been taking HCQ since a week before the planned virus release date.
The RATs likely colluded with the CCP on this crap and paid good, hard-earned taxpayer dollars for this special “smart” virus, and they’re gonna do everything they can possibly do to get the most of that money. IF that means denying thousands the prevention/cure, so be it. Some folks really ought to hang for this BS.

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) said Wednesday he will take an anti-malaria drug that experts have warned doesn’t treat the coronavirus

The deranged far left political activists disguised as “journalists” at The Hill lie for the 100 millionth time about HCQ.
Reality:

Harvey A. Risch, MD, PHD, Professor of Epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health:

“The Key to Defeating COVID-19 Already Exists. We Need to Start Using It

I am referring, of course, to the medication hydroxychloroquine. When this inexpensive oral medication is given very early in the course of illness, before the virus has had time to multiply beyond control, it has shown to be highly effective, especially when given in combination with the antibiotics azithromycin or doxycycline and the nutritional supplement zinc.”

If the Barney song-inspired ditty:

My mask protects you,
Your mask protects me

has even a sixteenth of an ounce of truth, then his lack of masking DID NOT cause his exposure.

Someone else's lack of masking---maybe.

I'm sure there are many Karens and Chads secretly (or not so secretly) gleeful that an antimasker has contracted COVID.

Evil scum.

The Ohio Pharmacy Board is controlled by Antifa/BLM/Soros bought and paid for far left activists?
No pharmacy board can stop anybody from taking HCQ for anything.
I have been taking it for malaria for over 40 years and I'd like to see some fool try to stop me from taking it when I need to.
This is pure idiocy from this totally insane pharmacy board.

44 states have HCQ restrictions, according to Yale’s Dr Risch.
