Bullshit headline.

They took fish tank cleaner. That’s like putting hydrocloric acid on a cut because hydrogen is in it, like hydrogen peroxide.

Morons should not reproduce.

President Trump: "We must try hydroxychloroquine & azithromycin."

The Media: "That's false hope! It's not approved for use yet!"

New York Gov. Cuomo: "We must try hydroxychloroquine & azithromycin."

The Media: "This is real leadership! What a fantastic idea!"— Emerald Robinson ✝️ (@EmeraldRobinson) March 23, 2020

I’ve seen this story three times and the headlines are twisted by the source editors to make it sound like Trump is to blame for promoting medical chloroquine.

That fool and his wife took a form of chloroquine _phosphate_ formulated for use in cleaning fish tanks. Not for humans to ingest as a medical drug.

Hey I’m on that! But I don’t believe that if one Dr. prescribed pill is good ten is better! And I don’t try to chew D-con because it is cheaper!

News media’s fault. In all the articles and stories, they mention how the drug is related to the aquarium chemical. It is as if they wanted this.

ingested chloroquine phosphate, an additive commonly used at aquariums to clean fish tanks

What they mean by "form" is phosphate, this is actually the full correct name of both the human and aquarium medication.

It is not a cleaner of any kind but a medication used against protozoa infections. While fish do not get malaria, they get many serious diseases caused by related organisms and anti-malaria human meds work on them.

Chloroquine is one of such medications, and a fairly bad one -- high toxicity. Good old quinine, in contrast, seems nontoxic in any dosages.

hydroxychloroquine, a form of

chloroquine mostly used by hospitals, is similar to chloroquine in activity (both against malaria and the coronavirus) but less toxic.

Yes, NPR as an institution and Scott Neuman as an individual are both happy to see people die.

An Arizona man is dead and his wife was hospitalized after the couple ingested a form of chloroquine, a chemical that has been hailed recently by President Trump as a possible "game changer" in the fight against the novel coronavirus

The same non-link to Trump and chloroquine has been made in multiple articles.

The press has dumbed down the public so much they should warn everyone against self pharmaceutical combinations.

They don’t mention that not only is chloroquine an ingredient in fish tank cleaner. What they ingested WAS fish tank dleaner.

“The aquarium additive the couple ingested is not the same as the medication that has been used to treat malaria.”

And then the rest of the article goes on to damn President Trump, because ... orange man bad.

This whole story is BS. This like taking a rat killer like Warfarin and using it to treat your heart disease. Warfarin is broadly prescribed for heart disease at a proper level. Working in Africa in 2006 I took Hydroxychloroquine and ZPac for Malaria without any side effects. It was 6 pills in 6 days and that was it. No Malaria again.

Don’t drink pool tank cleaner.

Talk about draining the swamp.

People are using the darwin cure on themselves and they should not be using oxygen.

It's all good.
