In the meantime, the Smithfield Union is urging their members NOT to participate in South Dakota’s Hydroxychloroquine trials.

(EXCERPT)
The president of the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union said Thursday that he is urging Sioux Falls Smithfield workers who contracted COVID-19 not to participate in a statewide study into the effectiveness of a malaria drug to treat the disease.
Gov. Kristi Noem has supported a statewide clinical trial of the drug hydroxychloroquine to determine if it might have benefits for COVID-19 patients, but UFCW President Marc Perrone said he wants no Smithfield workers to participate.
We are very, very concerned about it, and strongly recommend that our members do not take part in that study, he said.
Perrone said he was concerned by reports that patients treated with the drug had a higher death rate than those who received just standard care.
Perrone joined UFCW packing plant workers and officials who spoke with reporters during a more than hour long press call Thursday. UFCW officials criticized the federal and state governments for failing to properly safeguard packing plant workers, leading to plant closures across the country, food shortages and distress for farmers and ranchers. Noem was one of several governors criticized by the union.
Maggie Seidel, a spokeswoman for Noem, said in an email that hydroxychloroquine was entirely voluntary.
If folks want to go that route, the governor has done all she can to make it available, she said. Its up to individuals and their doctors to assess whether it makes sense for them.

I have only two comment to make for now.
New York State total deaths : Close to 21000
South Dakota total deaths : exactly 9
And two, what company is making more money right now than it has ever made before because of this coronavirus shutdown?
Yup Amazon. Their stock price is the highest it’s ever been.
Who owns the Washington Post?
Yup. Same Bezos who owns Amazon. Easy really.
“THE WASHINGTON com-POST” isn’t commonly referred to as PRAVDA ON THE POTOMAC without just cause. = LIES, HALF-TRUTH, DIMocRATS PROPAGANDA & DISHONEST SMEARS are the COMPOST’S “primary stock in trade”.

I have seen lefties whine about this recently. None of them realize that that plat would have run even if a “safe at home order” was in place.
The Washington post reporter is just angry that Kristi doesn't want to stay at home with him.
