The unproven claim that an antimalarial drug can cure coronavirus - called a 'game-changer' and a 'gift from God' by Donald Trump - has been promoted by a crypto-currency lawyer who has made a string of bogus claims, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Gregory Rigano made a series of Fox News and conservative and Christian radio appearances to tout the idea that chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine 'cures' conronavirus.
The anti-malaria drug is now the subject of series of clinical trials, including in New York, where the state received 10,000 doses.
It has been praised by Trump repeatedly - but the first time he did, at the White House last Friday, epidemiologist Tony Fauci stepped in to warn it was not scientifically proven to be effective and safe.
Trump amplified the case for the drug again on Twitter Monday amid apparent public tensions with Fauci.
Now a DailyMail.com investigation reveals how:

SoundS like a medicine side show. Trump’s Kung Fill Pills.
India is banning the export of either the drug or the components. Dont remember which....so it must have some value in this fight.
Last edit...oy!

Stop channeling your inner maoist. It’s more unattractive than you wrapped in tyvek.

So true! I’ll bet she broke down & cried when Neil Ferguson admitted today that his prediction of 500,000 UK deaths was downgraded to <20k. Lmao!
“Is he a Chinese Spy...or working for a drug company...or Soros ...or is he just mentally ill.”
He’s an attorney so I vote for all of the above.
You can say that again. Lol
Fake news winner of the day so far.
First we had the Creepy Porn Lawyer. Now the sequel-The Creepy Miracle Cure Drug Lawyer. Let’s inject him with massive doses of the virus and use him as a live experiment to see if the drug really works. Regarding your original question about why he would do this? We have seen a lot of weirdos come out of the woodwork. Licking toilet seats. Spitting on produce while filming themselves. Maybe he is just an evil lawyer. There seems to be a lot of them around. I see them on billboards in Reno and Las Vegas all the time. This guy has the classic look of one.
And he works for the family law firm..which makes this all so very odd.
Did he really think no one would check?
Nothing personal, but I don’t care “why he’s doing this”
It’s a “guilty by association” ploy, attempting to drive a particular outcome.
Some people are just nuts.
The Indian government believes that the drug has a tremendous value, and has recommended the use of hydroxychloroquine as a prophylaxis for medical personnel.
You can read the recommendation here, on the Indian government's website.
So much money. I would guess big pharma will win out in the end and come up with a magic cure that is 100x the cost of the generic plaquinil and AZR, along with Zinc
We aren't talking about patients declining a proven medication for one that has yet to be proven. They are looking for something that will work. No one is sending patients to Mexico for treatment with almond pits
What a BS article. I have Lupus/Sjogrens. I HAVE to take Hydrochloroquine and have daily since I was diagnosed 7 yrs ago. I had a sore throat, horrible headache, sneezing, coughing and wheezing in my chest early Feb. My Dr gave me a ZPAC for 10 days. I took it along with my reg meds. In 1 week most of my symptoms were gone! This combo WORKS—if it worked for me, it works!
“He’s an attorney so I vote for all of the above.”
Precise and to the point.
“Kinda like “Hitler used vitamins so, therefore, vitamins are evil”.
Shouldn’t that be “vitamins are LITERALLY evil?”
