"little" CNN and the 'AP' are very unhappy with this news.

At least in Louisiana, the grad of West Point grad (Gov Edwards) and Conservative Jeff Landry are working to save lives and putting PARTISAN politics aside for the good of Louisiana.

I will post article on this when it happens...

Article from KADN.com (FOX News and NBC News stations, Lafayette, LA):

Additional COVID-19 Medications Secured for Louisiana Patients

From the article:

Attorney General Landry announced that Teva Pharmaceuticals is making available 8,000 packs of azithromycin and 75,000 tablets of hydroxychloroquine sulfate. This in addition to the 400,000 tablets of hydroxychloroquine directly donated by Amneal Pharmaceuticals last week.

To treat patients infected with COVID-19, many medical professionals have coupled the use of hydroxychloroquine with the antibiotic azithromycin. As this medication combination has continued to show some promising results around the world, the supply of azithromycin (also known by brand name Zithromax) has begun shrinking. As a result, the ability of Louisiana patients to benefit from this possible treatment was jeopardized. This shortage highlights the importance of today’s announcement.
