Remember Donald Trump-touted hydroxychloroquine? Study in India backs it as Covid-19 cure
Hydroxychloroquine, the malaria drug touted as a magical Covid-19 cure by former US President Donald Trump last year, has been found effective in a prophylactic study published in the Journal of The Association of Physicians of India.
Ivermectin: Can a Drug Be "Right-Wing"? Only when "science" has become a euphemism ("code word") for "politically correct belief."
When President Trump was so sick with COVID-19 that was in the hospital, they didn’t give him Hydroxychloroquine and they didn’t give him Ivermectin because they didn’t want him to die. They gave him monoclonal antibody therapy and it immediately turned him around. President Trump hailed that treatment as a miracle drug.
