FDA today gave approval. Someone should post an article about that. I don’t know how.

It is getting close to unanimous this drug is effective. Why not go with anything that works.

This one?

FDA issues emergency authorization of anti-malaria drug for coronavirus care

I tried posting the article but FR rejected Politico (I don’t blame it)

The Food and Drug Administration on Sunday issued an emergency use authorization for hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, decades-old malaria drugs championed by President Donald Trump for coronavirus treatment despite scant evidence.

The agency allowed for the drugs to be "donated to the Strategic National Stockpile to be distributed and prescribed by doctors to hospitalized teen and adult patients with COVID-19, as appropriate, when a clinical trial is not available or feasible," HHS said in a statement, announcing that Sandoz donated 30 million doses of hydroxychloroquine to the stockpile and Bayer donated 1 million doses of chloroquine.

I just did, but it was posted by Politico, so it is under Miscellaneous.

So evil big pharma is donating 130 million doses of the drug that evil big pharma is trying to block because it will not make them enough money.

Got it.

You know, with machine that detects infection in minutes, and a treatment that actually works, this pandemic may be over before it gets started.

I’m very positive about this.

The next step is a vaccine that is currently in trials.

Yep, there must be some kind of catch.

For those who don’t know Novartis CEO Vas Narasimhan, he is one impressive individual. If we could afford him, he would be a great HHS Sec, but we probably can’t. Novartis also has a vaccine candidate in testing, but unlike a proven 7 decade old drug, a vaccine will take a real trial, and at least a year.
