Bad news for Corona Doomsayers?

[Darth Omar]

How so?

Try not bringing him up when discussing epidemics and it will be less obvious.

HAHAHA. Not a bad idea!

I've been binge watching "Leverage" on Tubi (a free app, free movies and tv) so I can't claim full credit for running a con on your roommate.

It would take the President to bypass FDA rules, so it's necessary to bring up Trump.

OTOH, Trump won't do it because then he'd be held responsible for anything that went wrong.

I didn't bring him up. Lesion did.

[Micawber]

Looks we have us a COVID virus treatment protocol.

FDA not needed.

This is actually very irresponsible of you Darth. Though your intent may be to simply troll as usual using lies as always,
the Attorneys general websites across the country have identified corona cure sites and portals as recent scam alerts.

Peddling online scams is close to aiding and abetting.

To be fair, it's no more irresponsible than Dear Leader.....actually, since Trump is President, he is a lot more irresponsible than his fans who just regurgitate Trump's words.

Corona deniers are a dime a dozen, sadly. That is another dangerous contagion.

Their recalcitrance and stupidity will cost tens of thousands of lives before this is over.
Again, tie this one on Fox and Limbaugh as they instilled a near atavistic distrust and distaste
for experts, science and being told anything at all, basically. They interpret advice of experts
as an aspersion cast at their intelligence, and in denial, live up to the unintended insult they perceived.

If only states AGs had the balls to post Trump on its crime spree alert splash page.

[PostmodernProphet]

If we’re going to lose hundreds of thousands, or millions, we don’t have time for FDA regulations.

Which are going to need a serious look when this is over.

its not like his treatment isn't comprised of things people have been taking for decades without problem....

Using Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate, Zinc & Z-Pak

LOL. Funny.

Speaking of the states; this crisis may be a watershed moment for Governors, AGs and other state authorities to put less reliance on the Feds and more on their own group actions.

The DEMOCRAT governor of Michigan refuses to allow it.

DEMOCRAT

President Trump expressed optimism about a malaria drug that early evidence indicates may be an effective treatment for the Wuhan coronavirus. Naturally, Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer moved immediately to block Michiganders from gaining access to the potentially life-saving medication.

(Hydroxy)chloroquine is an inexpensive drug widely used since 1955 to treat malaria. Growing evidence suggests the drug may be an effective treatment for COVID-19 patients. Given the drug's relatively harmless side effects, some doctors are incorporating the drug as part of their treatment for the Wuhan coronavirus. New York began clinical trials of (hydroxy)chloroquine last week, and Gov. Cuomo has also expressed optimism over the drug's efficacy.

The world is currently in the middle of a pandemic and the luxury of time simply doesn't exist for the typical regulatory processes. With no other alternatives, why not let doctors prescribe (hydroxy)chloroquine to their patients who could only stand to benefit from the drug?

But Gov. Whitmer is more interested in engaging in a political exercise with the president, by acting like the president's optimism in the drug is completely unfounded and we're not in the middle of a global crisis. The governor is willing to gamble with the hopes and the lives of patients in her state.

Gov. Whitmer's Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs sent a letter to licensed health professionals in the state warning them not to prescribe (hydroxy)chloroquine as a treatment for the Wuhan coronavirus.

The letter then instructs pharmacists not to fill such prescriptions and tells doctors and pharmacists to rat each other out for prescribing the drug as a treatment for the coronavirus.

Other countries have already allowed doctors to begin treating coronavirus patients with (hydroxy)chloroquine. And, as large clinical trials get underway, shortages of the drug have been reported, affecting sufferers of lupus who depend on the drug for treatment. But other drugs are already available for the treatment of lupus, though many patients prefer hydroxychloroquine simply because of the drug's lower toxicity.

Drugmakers have already ramped up production of (hydroxy)chloroquine in response to increased demand.

No shit, and so another inversion of principles occurs. Dems for states rights, Republicans for a strong central government and a self appointed constitutional plenipotentiary.

Trump should have the balls to mandate this across the nation and bypass the Governors. He can take full credit when all is well, amirite?

LOL. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

Meaning testing is slowing, and deaths are increasing

Yes, old people with under-lying medical conditions will bear the brunt of this virus. There will be more deaths. We've known this for weeks.
