Beginning Thursday, hydroxychloroquine can no longer be used to treat coronavirus in Ohio.
Pharmacies, clinics and other medical institutions will be prohibited from dispensing or selling the drug to treat COVID-19, according to new regulations issued by the State of Ohio Board of Pharmacy. It can still be used in clinical trials, said Cameron McNamee, director of policy and communications for the board.
Hydroxychloroquine has been touted by President Donald Trump despite medical studies showing the drug to be ineffective at treating the disease. The drug may also cause serious cardiac side effects, according to the Food and Drug Administration.
Basically, its a patient safety issue, McNamee said. Were looking at the best science to determine whats best for the patients of Ohio.

Same with the infamous Ohio House Bill 6 where First Energy bribed (allegedly, for now) the Ohio House speaker and others tens of millions of dollars in order to get over a billion dollars in subsidies. When the feds arrested Speaker Householder and there were calls to repeal HB6, DeWine said that it shouldn't be repealed. The next day the spineless governor said it should be repealed and replaced when he saw which way the winds were blowing.
The left could care less about public safety they still use their names for voting.
How can the board interfere here?
“The court held that a womans right to an abortion was implicit in the right to privacy protected by the 14th Amendment to the Constitution.”
How is the right to take a drug with a 70 year track record of safety any different than the right to have an abortion? It should be a decision between patient and doctor after thorough consultation on the risks. My body, my choice. Trump needs to push this. Use their words against them. A right to privacy as stipulated in Griswold v Connecticut, and Roe v Wade is not unique to pregnancy. We have to convince people that Covid is treatable or we will never get the country back.
Banning an FDA approved drug. Seems borderline criminal.

Here's your cracker, Max!
Theyre also in the pocket of Big Pharma, for whom HCL success would be an utter disaster.
Big Pharma does not like cheap and effective drugs.
Sad...instead of following medical experts Ohio is kissing Facebook’s ass!
Fortunately, this is just one state in our 50 state laboratory of democracy.
Imagine the total control they would have over us/US now if the entire nation was forced to live under their one provider rule of obamacare or Hillarycare!
The only options for treatment would only be what they allowed if/when they allowed them.
But hey, maybe if you beg a little .... and grovel, too ... things might go better for you. I hear They like that.
Kinda like what Nadler wanted Barr to do when Nadler had total power. Beg me and grovel or theres no bathroom break for you!
See how they are? They are a bad bunch of Luke 16:10 failures, every freaking one of them.
Which makes us/US the worlds biggest fools ever, since we keep electing and reelecting them to rule over us/US again and again, election after election.
The boards shift came after Gov. Mike DeWine asked the state pharmacy board on Thursday morning to rescind its plan to ban hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine as treatments for the virus.
OHIO PING!
Please let me know if you want on or off the Ohio Ping list.

This was rescinded at DeWine’s request later in the day.
Because they can. Every petty bureaucrat has been empowered. Fearpers heartily endorsed these actions.
.
HCQ is over the counter in some countries.
IMO Tylenol is far more dangerous than HCQ.
Take Tylenol on a stomach full of hard liquor and you are good for complete liver failure in a few hours.
DeWine is good for a surprise every now and then.
How can the board interfere here?
Declare and emergency and the courts will give the executive branch wide leeway.
