So, with your premise, as you present it, here what is YOUR position confronts you with.
Your mother and father are seriously infected, and the good doctors said, we have no evidence whatsoever that this combo will save them because we haven’t done extensive clinical trials. We need to do these trials and they typically take YEARS.
But, others said we have data that suggests strongly that we can save your mom and your dad regardless of what they claim, but, we do not have YEARS of data.
What would your decision be?

Nice use of ad hominem and ALL CAPS as if it makes your argument stronger.

First, I said trials were being fast tracked. Second, doctors are doctors. They work within medical ethics and standards, not the standards of political bloggers.

To answer your question, my answer is to trust the doctor's best judgment, since they are doctors and I'm not.

We deal with experimental drugs every day in cancer. Don’t fret, our doctors know when and how to use new drugs and give the patients and families choices.
