LAS VEGAS (AP) — Nevada’s governor has signed an emergency order barring the use of anti-malaria drugs for someone who has the coronavirus.

Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak’s order Tuesday restricting chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine comes after President Donald Trump touted the medication as a treatment for the virus.

Practicing medicine without a license.

Sadly, the Republican was an entitled Never Trumper, a lazy entitled candidate that thought he should win solely because of daddy’s name.

Wow. I remember when people were eating Tide pods. Fish tank cleaner seems like a step down from that...

[Stepan12]

There is no phosphate at the end of the hydroxy stuff that POTUS is recommending. Didn't those idiot s who drank fish tank cleaner know that detergent phosphates are poisonous?

The level of idiocy that some people have.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Nevada’s governor has signed an emergency order barring the use of anti-malaria drugs for someone who has the coronavirus.

Like Cuomo he has guaranteed that a black market will spring up for hydroxy.

Pharmacies will be robbed and not just by criminals, but by desperate people trying to save their own or a loved one's life.

People known to have it, such as those with RA or lupus will be at risk of robbery and violence.

I know why Associated Press is a basically dead organization. Its writers are both hopelessly liberal and stupid. He quotes President Trump out of context to make this idiot Dim Governor look better.

Elections have consequences

My best friend is a doctor who had 3 Corona Virus patients. One is an 88 year old woman (w/ A-Fib and COPD) who is currently in the hospital. The other 2 are younger people who tested positive and got better within 24 hours of taking hydroxychloroquine and a Z-pack.

The governor needs to be stopped - this is crazy.

Needs to be hauled off to the shed for some corrective persuasion

No soup for you, Governor! Well, bat soup is ok.

People in Reno and Vegas...

[ocrp1982]

Dr. Oz is on Hannity right now saying that a top researcher in NYC, a well known Dr. in the field told Dr. Oz that as far as that research Dr. is concerned to withhold the HCD from anyone with the Wuhan Virus is IMMORAL.

[WildHighlander57]

Words fail me ..

[Chengdu54]

Anyway, he lacks authority for this. Can’t practice medicine without a license.

[The people have spoken]

What about the President’s “Right to Try” legislation? Can a governor override it?

[Pontiac]

Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak’s order Tuesday restricting chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine...

That's the act of a vigilante.

No, that is the act of a Democrat working to collapse the Healthcare system of the United States so that they can push through Socialized Medicine in this country.

If a simple and inexpensive outpatient treatment for this virus can be found before the hospitals are overwhelmed the Democrats lose the opportunity to push through socialized medicine ant take ownership of the healthcare system.
