I wouldn't doubt it at all!!!!

It would be somewhat amusing if, as a result of HCL/z-pack/zinc regimen, the situation were to be more or less under control by April 12, and the country were well enough healed that folks could attend Easter services and go back to work by then...

Also, Gilead deeply saddened. Yes not much into conspiracy theories but I am sure their PR firm was sending out talking points to Democrats to talk down cheap and effective anti-malarial treatment. They want 10s of millions of deaths while they test out their anti-virals which will have side effects like rectal bleeding, blindness, ED and cancer. But that is better /s Big Pharma loves Democrats, especially.

there are absolute contraindications to using quinines. Ones you cant know by looking at the patient.
true enough ... the biggie is heart disease, ESPECIALLY when the cardiac electrical system is damaged and/or abnormal, because Plaquinil widens the QTc interval, which can be fatal in such cases ... Azithromax has exactly the same issue, so the two together are a double-whammy from that perspective ...
so, while for most people those arent issues, a select group of cardiac patients should NOT be taking these drugs casually ... thats why GOOD doctors must have a good understanding of the drugs they prescribe and their dangers and limitations, ESPECIALLY in the cases of polypharmacy and/or pre-existing chronic conditions ...
YES!!!! You got it ...this can’t get handed out like candy.

I think that fish tank cleaner story was to prime the public for the narrative they are now about to unleash, which is "Trump made the FDA approve an unproven and potentially dangerous drug to treat coronavirus!!!" Doom! Doooom! I haven't seen any TV news yet today but am expecting the feces slinging to commence shortly when they get all their talking points coordinated.

Read up on G6PD Def. If this frug is just handed out like candy you are going to kill more people than the disease.

Aren’t people told to follow their Health Care providers advice?
Never heard anyone say you should ingest anything the POTUS says?
Common sense is NOT so common these days!

I think Novartis was all on board for this.
If their thinking was that some profit was better than none, it was smart.
I forget if it was novartis.
Who the hell can keep track lately :)

That would be GREAT!!!
Somewhat amusing is a woman seeing me in my birthday suit :)
Or maybe that falls under sad. One or the other :)
The Easter thing would be GREAT news.

There is nothing that will get a bureaucrat off their ass and doing their job faster than the thought of losing their practically no-work job. Fauci looked like a foot dragging bureaucrat who wanted to take months to approve a treatment for coronavirus when the drugs everyone was telling them worked and were approved decades ago with people dying in the meantime. I’m sure he felt the heat of Trump warming up to sign a “your services will no longer be needed after this emergency has passed” letter.

While assumed nefariousness is common here, there's a more charitable explanation for this delay readily at hand, that being the available supply. It would have done little good to "approve" the drug in advance of it being widely available as that would have simply led to more public panic as patients demanded what doctors could not give them because they didn't have it.
That's kinda how I've been leaning. Delay any "pronouncements" until you have adequate supply to back it up.
