“ This drug hasn’t proven to be successful in treating viral illnesses”
Bull shit!!
You can also choke to death on a sugar pill. These drugs have been in active use, safely, on humans, for over 50 years. Just more media BS because Orange Man Bad and Orange Man’s Pill Bad.
Reminds me of the guy facing a firing squad who refuses a last cigarette because it might give him lung cancer.
What do you have to lose taking hydroxychloroquine for coronavirus? Uh, the opportunity to beat a possibly life threatening illness? Plus you’ll be helping PDJT make a bunch of money from his HCQS factories.

I would love someone to tell me a single drug, medical procedure or protocol that does not have side effects. People die from OD’ing on aspirin.
Sheesh.
In 1976 approximately 450 people came down with Guillain-Barre syndrome after taking a vaccine for Swine Flu that had been rushed to market. Big Pharma can go to hell.
Not a doctor and doesn’t say why he has this opinion in the first paragraph.
Major fail.
It’s not treating the viral infection.
It’s treating the secondary bacterial pneumonia set up by the virus.
Dr Duggirala (Silicon Valley MD @csentropy) tweeted:
“For the life of me, I can’t understand the absolute ignorance in the press about Plaquenil. That applies to doctors as well. I cannot emphasize enough the safety of Plaquenil. We rheumatologists literally don’t think twice about prescribing it. Over 90% of patients with lupus are on it.” — A brilliant rheumatologist friend. [Dr Sam Girgis]
Plaquenil is tradename of HCQ.
Dr. Raymond L. Woosley prescribes prescription medicines to his patients EVERY DAY with side effects potentially far more deadly than this drug’s.
I’d be willing to stake his country club membership on it.
This doctor is a liar. Taken under supervision of your own doctor, it’s very safe. 60+ years of use.
That must be why they give it as a matter of routine to soldiers going to malaria zones.
[[The drug doesn’t come without a certain set of risks, and no one knows if it can effectively treat COVID-19.]]
I see this online site is garbage- ruled by their TDS- ignorant of facts- not worth reading any further than the posted line
liberals lies are getting very very tiresome-
Quack. Quack. Quack.
I’m still waiting for the double blind studies that demonstrate social distancing works.
Is this drug anything like the quinine treatments Vietnam vets used to have to take? I recall my deceased husband mentioning getting a "quinine pill" and I think he might have also mentioned "quinine water" for Malaria treatment.
Zpak protocol is also known to have bad heart affects.
yea no bias there
