The amount of money spent by drug companies given here seems a bit high, but I'm the media makes enough from drug companies to be more than willing to happily swallow their little blue pills, no pun intended.

I read an article several weeks ago that stated the price of an HCQ pill at the consumer level is $0.50 each.
I stated here on several threads that this is why, in addition to TDS, that HCQ is being actively attacked. There is No Money to be made with it.
What they’re really afraid of isn’t its ability to cure the Wuhan Virus. It’s the growing evidence it is Prophylactically effective. Dr. Wallace wrote a letter to the FDA and sent copies to numerous other doctors stating that within his current >2000 patients taking HCQ for Lupus not one of them has to date contracted the Wuhan Virus.

There should be a complete ban of controlled substance advertising.

$50 per vaccine dose? Dream on. It will probably be $200 per dose. The current shingles vaccine is over $200. I suppose if you are a POC you will get a heavy discount on the CCP virus vaccine, owing to the color of your skin.

Democrats wanted that golden pill to pay for stealing the next election.

"Consider this: Anywhere between 50-70% of the media’s advertising dollars come from Big Pharma. Pharmaceutical companies are all competing to make a vaccine for COVID-19. At roughly $50 per dose, the net purse for a vaccine that thought leaders the world over will want to make compulsory for every man, woman, and child on the planet is in the 350-billion-dollar range."

The one flaw here is, the pharmaceutical industry is going to make money no matter what. Those 29 million does of hydroxychlroquine from India were not free. Dr. Zelenko’s Hydroxychlorquine-Zinc-Acytomyocin treatment costs as little $20 right now. A cure right now and vaccinations later still equals billions. The money for the cure now is really good to in face of imposed economic shut down.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers specializing in generic drugs are not going to pass up making money for more expensive vaccines. Nations that are already using hyrodoxychorlquine are not going to stop using it for the promise of a future vaccine. That will force companies to produce drugs and vaccines to produce medications if a readily available treatment is considered good enough.

Either deliberately or accidentally, I think the news is creating the impression of a fight between primary care doctors, clinical researchers, drug manufacturers, and governments where none really exists. The Covid-19 pandemic has been outside China for around three months, bureaucracies take longer than that to adjust.

More than big pharma. The elites of the west want to take control of all our finances and our lives. Think more like big elitist communist plot for world domination.

I hate to say it but I think we should go back to not allowing pharmaceutical commercials.

After all, the patients shouldn’t be deciding about the medication the doctor should write? and the commercials are horrible in misleading. you don’t take a pill because it’s cute and it makes friends with the other pill you’re taking.

A $20 cure verses a $120K effort to maybe cure.

“or was there something else at work?”

there is but it has nothing to do with big pharm making an extra buck and everything to do with crashing the economy and destroying Donald Trump; to wit:

Herd immunity is necessary for the C-19 contagion to burn itself out, but you won’t get that by having lockdowns because in fact lockdowns prevent herd immunity from occurring, and it doesn’t matter if the lockdown is a month or six months because the same exact thing will happen regardless of the length of lockdown when the un-lockdown occurs, namely a whole slew of new C-19 cases are going to occur, and that is completely unavoidable ... There’s no rocket science here, and public policy makers know all of the above, and their claim has always been that the lockdown was *ONLY* to avoid the unknown possibility of the medical system being overwhelmed by too many cases all at once.

President Trump’s dilemma (”the hardest decision I’ll ever have to make in my life”) is to how to prepare the public for this inevitable new wave of illness and new wave of deaths when the economy reopens ...

However, if there’s a cheap, safe, effective and universally available cure in the early stages of C-19 infection as is now known to be the case with HCQ/antibiotic/zinc, then there is indeed a whole new ballgame, namely it doesn’t matter how many will get sick when the un-lockdown occurs, because very few will die due to the treatment, and we can therefore safely and quickly build herd immunity, and C-19 will burn itself out as it can no longer be spread once a certain threshold of immune people is reached ...

So, i believe that what is really going to drive the “reopening” date is having enough HCQ/antibiotic/zinc supplies across the nation to treat the hundreds of thousands of new (symptomatic) cases AS SOON AS THEY OCCUR when the nation reopens for business, because then lots of people getting sick from this disease won’t be that big of a deal if they can be effectively treated in the EARLY STAGES of the illness ... but if we do NOT have those curative supplies in place in sufficient quantities across our nation, then all hell would break lose politically if large numbers of people die as a result of the un-lockdown ...

The Dems and fake stream enemedia know all of the above, which is why they’ve been desperately trying to discredit this treatment ... they are desperately hoping that President Trump will be put into a lose-lose situation by reopening the economy and having additions scores die that they can claim is his fault ... however, with an actual cure, none of that will happen and the economy can safely be reopened ... fortunately, the above treatment has practically become the standard of treatment in ERs and ICUs around the nation, and practically no one as far as i can tell believe the fairy tales manufactured by the fake stream media about the HCQ/antibiotic/zinc treatment.

How about this;

Republicans can take the Chloroquine and get back to work, have fun and live life.

Democrats can live in fear, be antisocial, stay at home and not work while their mortgages go to default, and not vote next fall.
