As reported last week — Nevada’s Governor Steve Sisolak (D) on Tuesday issued an emergency order barring the use of anti-malaria drugs such as chloroquine for Coronavirus patients.
===========
But there’s more… If you read the governor’s order he also prevented seniors from using chloroquine as a prophylactic to ward off the disease.
Governor Sisolak’s Chief Medical Officer of Nevada is named Ihsan Azzam and he is the one who advised Gov. Sisolak to make it illegal to prescribe hydroxychloroquine to COVID-19 victims.
Ihsan Azzam oversees public health surveillance, epidemiology and disease control activities in the state of Nevada.
But as reported in the Washington Times in 2018 — Ihsan Azzam does not have a license to practice medicine in the United States and yet he is dictating public health policy in Nevada! Nevada’s top doctor isn’t licensed to practice medicine in the United States.
Ihsan Azzam testified in Las Vegas on Tuesday that he has a master’s degree and worked for several years in environmental public health and epidemiology before being named chief state medical officer last May.
Azzam says he practiced for several years as an obstetrics and gynecology physician in Africa before moving to the United States in the 1990s.
On Sunday night the FDA issued an emergency authorization for hydroxychloroquine to be prescribed to coronavirus patients.

Answer: YES
Oh what’s wrong with third world healthcare that a little Democrat politics can’t improve? /s
Ihsan Azzam??? WHERE are we getting these people from?? And HOW are they getting all these cushy jobs?
Sisolak is a Democrat, and we are supposed to believe with such credentials he is competent in his choice of any of his gubernatorial cabinet much less a foreigner not licensed to practice in the U.S.!?
If it’s a Democrat in office it means he/she is the result of a collective screw up. Seems to happen too often anymore.
What does a license to practice medicine have to do with it? Prostitution is legal in Nevada, and governor Sisolak is a highly compensated and enthusiastic whore for Big Pharma.
“I’m Ihsan Azzam. I’m not a doctor but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.”
I hold a license to practice in Nevada. Now retired, I won’t leave my swamp somewhere in redneck Florida.
This is typical of Sisolak’s gov’t. He doesn’t have a clue what the hell is going on.
Some of the old news articles about him list his name followed by PHD, MD. FAKE NEWS. he is not qualified to make these decisions. He states he has a masters degree.
These governors are going to need to do a lot of explaining after this is over. A lot.
Remember how hard the Dems hit Bush'43 on H.Katrina and his FEMA appointee? Nobody remembered that both the New Orleans Mayor & Louisiana Governor were culpable for resisting FEMA 'intrusion' and that the flooding damage came AFTER the hurricane had passed when the insufficient levee maintenance (local corruption) became manifest. It was Bush's fault that long time Democrats spent maintenance money elsewhere for DECADES.
Forget Jake, they’re democrats. (paraphrasing Chinatown)
If citizens of Nevada can come with instances of him purporting to be a doctor, maybe they can sue to have him criminally charged and removed from office.
Yep
what, they couldn't find some illegal alien from south of the border to do the job???
Funny, you nailed it.
Can anyone in Nevada , advise?
