Prosecutors are scrutinizing communications between a New York doctor with ties to the White House and conservative commentator Jerome Corsi.
Records of Dr. Vladimir Zelenko are being examined by Justice Department lawyers after his associate, Corsi, accidentally emailed former Mueller investigation prosecutor Aaron Zelinsky a message meant for the doctor.
In response, Zelinsky, who scrutinized Corsi's behavior during the 2016 election while on special counsel Robert Mueller's team, emailed Corsi's lawyer and requested all communications sent to and received from Zelenko, according to a report by the Washington Post on Thursday.
Zelinsky prosecutes coronavirus-related crimes in the U.S. attorney's office in Maryland, an endeavor that's part of Attorney General William Barr's push to go after fraud related to the pandemic. The Justice Department has charged an assortment of people with fraud, pursuing those who attempt to sell fake cures for COVID-19 and personal protective equipment not in the seller's possession.

Zelinsky is fishing. That’s his track record.
Timely info. Thanks.
Gin & tonic every three weeks should cover me.
Not easy to drain the swamp, because you would need to remove 67% of all bureaucrats.
The New York Prosecutors offices of DOJ are still headed by partisan Obama appointees. Trump should have fired every Federal Prosecutor day 1.
Am I missing something here?
What exactly would be criminal about the communication?
This sounds fishy to me. I am no fan of Corsi and have taken heat for it here in the past, but he is a free citizen and has the right to communicate or email as he sees fit unless such communication is in violation of an actual criminal statue.
The doctor’s a Hasidic Jew... liberal Jews really hate them.
the problem is Zelinsky.
He is the rabid pitbull in the "Orange Man Bad" crowd.
I think Aaron Zelinsky should be prosecuted for this. "Felony for thee, but not for me," says the corrupt federal prosecutor.
Pretty stupid of Corsi.
A Texas City nursing home got hit hard by SARS-CoV-2, both staff and residents. The Doc in charge used Dr Z’s protocol and the home suffered only one fatality. He credits HCQ. Eighty people were infected so only one death is pretty darn good since all residents are elderly.
"Tout" is loaded with negativity.

I contacted the SIR directly. They say the author of this article misquoted them.

We are sorry to inform you that the journalist has misrepresented what we have communicated to him and that there is no investigation into patients using hydroxychloroquine in Italy.
The register of the Italian Society of Rheumatology (CONTROL-19) includes 150 patients with rheumatological diseases and of these 20 were taking hydroxychloroquine.
Unfortunately, we are receiving many similar risks, as the publication of the aforementioned article has created much confusion.
Trusting that we have clarified the misunderstanding, we send our best regards,
Luigi Sinigaglia - President of SIR
Out of control
“Prosecutors are scrutinizing communications between a New York doctor with ties to the White House and conservative commentator Jerome Corsi.”
Is it illegal for Corsi to speak to the doctor? Is it illegal for the doctor to advocate aggressively for HCQ.
WHERE THE HELL IS BAGPIPER BOB?
“I think Barr will put a stop to this as soon as he hears about it.”
Yeah! I mean who can doubt that after those 5am Barr SWAT raids on Brennan, Comey, Paige, and having CIA Halper returned from England to face charges. /s
Should be investigating the nursing home decisions by the governors.
This partisan idiot prosecutor needs to be fired prontissimo for this abuse of power.
HCQ is $0.63/pill. Remdesvir is $1000.00/pill.
That's an insanely long half life. So you dose once and your good for a week? Now I am wondering about the HCQ regimen - I see a few as follows: 200mg twice daily for 5 days.
With that kind of half-life you dont have to take more than 2 days worth for a >21 day effect.
Below is another translated comment today from the articles author and states a study from patient’s record is still ongoing. I don’t think anyone would believe that people on hydroxychloroquine would completely avoid getting sick but the hope would be that they get less sick if hydroxychloroquine is preventative like it is with malaria. I had a conversation with a doctor about how this coronavirus affects the blood in the way that other coronavirus’s didn’t and it looks like the blood is damaged so that it cannot pick up oxygen. And we have heard that respirators are not working as expected with people with pneumonia. But a main point in this article is that hydroxchloroquine is that it may be killing the virus in the same manner it kills malaria, that the virus feeds off of hemoglobin and is similarity killed.
I’m not qualified to evaluate that part of the article.

I try to answer the comments, in an attempt to clear your doubts about the sources and the data. The Italian Society of Rheumatology (SIR) has already started a register on patients with chronic rheumatological diseases at the beginning of March with the aim of acquiring detailed information on the population of patients who were contagious from SARS-Cov 2 in our country. The register consists of a database that contains information about the demography, the disease the patient is carrying, the ongoing therapy as well as the clinical characteristics of the viral infection and its evolution. The database was published on the SIR website with a pressing invitation to all Rheumatologists operating on the national territory (which are about 1,200) to complete the form in all cases where it was necessary to observe a rheumatological patient with an infection documented by Sars -Cov 2. This initiative was possible thanks to the intense work of the SIR Study Center which within 24 hours generated a fully computerized data collection folder, capable of recording all the reported cases. In this regard, the number of patients taking hydroxychloroquine in Italy: 65 thousand, is extrapolated from the monthly sales of the drug - for the subgroup of chronic patients (Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, etc.) in the pre-emergency months -Covid19 - and it is based on all pharmacies in Italy, from north to south.
