A friend of mine has Rheumatoid Arthritis and uses HCQ for that ailment. He gave a handful of HCQ tablets to another acquaintance this summer.
This situation is BEYOND utterly ridiculous in the USA. “If you get sick, stay at home until you get REALLY sick then come to the hospital and we’ll put you on a ventilator.”
My wife takes hydroxychloriquine for some autoimmune issues. I used some of hers to start with an then a friend of hers who has RA dropped off a bunch of it.
As I replied later in this post, most people know 5-10 people who have plenty of extra hydroxychloriquine and can spare what’s needed.
