President Donald Trump on Monday told reporters he's been taking hydroxychloroquine, the anti-malaria drug he's touted as a possible "game changer" treatment for COVID-19.
He said he asked the White House doctor if he could take the unproven treatment despite having no symptoms, adding he's been taking a pill a day for about a week and a half.
"I'm still fine," he said, referring to possible dangerous side effects.

He probably wanted to try it for himself to help basement Joe Out.
“Unproven”
With mass anecdotal evidence, 99.9% of which is positive.
“Touted”
Drink!
Saw my podiatrist last Monday. She said we(as in all doctors) know HCQS is drug to use with Covid19. She said this rather casually and we talked more. She is Jewish and can’t get why any Jew would support a Democratic. BTW she saved my big toe nail when an asshat wanted to remove it.
Whatever. If he thinks it’s good for him, it’s his business.
Trump is trolling them again. Look for information coming out soon from one. INDEED! He is so far ahead of these Dumbo’s it must be like shooting fish in a barrel.
Does this make him an anecdotal President?

Side effects include media meltdown.

It’s serious. Side effects of hydroxychloroquine include panting, hyperventilating, screaming, and irrational behavior. And that’s just the press.
These people are nuts. This is not an “unproven drug” with unknown “dangerous side effects” - it has been used for more than a half century and is listed as an essential drug by WHO. There are articles on the official NIH website going back to 2005 which state this family of drugs has proven effective in treating SARS-Cov-1. It is not like it is outlandish to suggest it could treat SARS-Cov-2. Yet the media marches on with its fake news narrative as though the President just makes this stuff up out of thin air.
When do the peasants get theirs?
Media: “We need proof! (that Trump is doing something right)”
Media: “We don’t need proof! (that Trump is doing something wrong)”
What a sick media.
My Dad will be 100 next Sunday.Told nursing home if he has covid19 I demand HCQS. To me after 100 it’s all gravy. This is indeed all true in PA.
ABC news reports are Unproven
Did he really have it?
Took THREE people to write this tripe? Must be a union shop.
Even the Daily Mail is ahead of these nitwit journalists. Libby, Ben, and Jordyn need to get someone to explain the NYU School of Medicine study about hydroxychloroquine and zinc to them before writing articles like that one.
“In univariate analyses, zinc sulfate increased the frequency of patients being discharged home, and decreased the need for ventilation, admission to the ICU, and mortality or transfer to hospice for patients who were never admitted to the ICU. After adjusting for the time at which zinc sulfate was added to our protocol, an increased frequency of being discharged home (OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.12-2.09) reduction in mortality or transfer to hospice remained significant (OR 0.449, 95% CI 0.271-0.744). Conclusion: This study provides the first in vivo evidence that zinc sulfate in combination with hydroxychloroquine may play a role in therapeutic management for COVID-19.”
I’m deeply curious why the the conservative media hasn’t trumpeted these studies.
It’s pretty important stuff.
I get the impression they’re too focused on the “story”.
