(WXYZ) — The FDA denied Henry Ford Health System's request for an emergency use authorization for hydroxychloroquine for a segment of COVID-19 patients.

In a statement, Henry Ford said the decision does not impact the ongoing study that investigates hydroxychloroquine as a preventative treatment.

"At the same time, we remain focused on advancing efforts to develop a safe and effective vaccine against COVID-19," Henry Ford said. "We are the only site in Michigan enrolling volunteers in the phase 3 trial of the Moderna mRNA-1273 Coronavirus vaccine and evaluating its promise as a vaccine candidate. We continue to believe that a safe and effective vaccine is the best way to protect people from this devastating virus."

Dr. Anthony Fauci previously called the study on the effectiveness of using hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 "flawed" during testimony in front of a House subcommittee.

In response, doctors at Henry Ford Health System penned an open letter, saying the current political climate has made any discussion of the drug impossible.

Trump can absolutely win the election by EO. Make the hydroxychloroquine/zinc protocol available over the counter today!

This one has been taken over by communists nut cases. “

Notice how our Republican Senators and congressmen and governors show more respect to the left than to their base. They do not defend the people (suckers) who elected them to their cushy jobs and who (like suckers) stick up for them when arguing with Democrats

If masks save lives - and I believe they can - then how many died because Fauci this past Feb and March said not to wear a mask?

It’s the government class against the people...like it is in every totalitarian regime.

The reason they are punishing the people today is that we had the unmitigated gaul to believe in government of, by and for the people and elect someone they didn’t approve of and who thought he was elected to serve the people.

WE need the revolution.

Time to defund and power down the FDA. Seems pretty damn swampy in that agency.
