    Default Doctors Send Open Letter To Fauci About HCQ COVID Cure

    .
    Since the start of the pandemic, hundreds of doctors have successfully used hydroxychloroquine to treat patients symptomatic of COVID-19 infections. In frustration at the media negativity about this safe, effective medicine American doctors have sent an open letter to Dr Fauci raising their concerns.


    August 12, 2020

    Anthony Fauci, MD
    National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases
    Washington, D.C.

    Dear Dr. Fauci:

    You were placed into the most high-profile role regarding America’s response to the Coronavirus pandemic. Americans have relied on your medical expertise concerning the wearing of masks, resuming employment, returning to school, and of course medical treatment.

    You are largely unchallenged in terms of your medical opinions. You are the de facto “COVID-19 Czar”. This is unusual in the medical profession in which doctors’ opinions are challenged by other physicians in the form of exchanges between doctors at hospitals, medical conferences, as well as debate in medical journals. You render your opinions unchallenged, without formal public opposition from physicians who passionately disagree with you. It is incontestable that the public is best served when opinions and policy are based on the prevailing evidence and science, and able to withstand the scrutiny of medical professionals.

    As experience accrued in treating COVID-19 infections, physicians worldwide discovered that high-risk patients can be treated successfully as an outpatient, within the first 5 to 7 days of the onset of symptoms, with a “cocktail” consisting of hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and azithromycin (or doxycycline). Multiple scholarly contributions to the literature detail the efficacy of the hydroxychloroquine-based combination treatment.

    Dr. Harvey Risch, the renowned Yale epidemiologist, published an article in May 2020 in the American Journal of Epidemiology titled “Early Outpatient Treatment of Symptomatic, High-Risk COVID-19 Patients that Should be Ramped-Up Immediately as Key to Pandemic Crisis”. He further published an article in Newsweek in July 2020 for the general public expressing the same conclusions and opinions. Dr. Risch is an expert at evaluating research data and study designs, publishing over 300 articles. Dr Risch’s assessment is that there is unequivocal evidence for the early and safe use of the “HCQ cocktail.” If there are Q-T interval concerns, doxycycline can be substituted for azithromycin as it has activity against RNA viruses without any cardiac effects.

    Yet, you continue to reject the use of hydroxychloroquine, except in a hospital setting in the form of clinical trials, repeatedly emphasizing the lack of evidence supporting its use. Hydroxychloroquine, despite 65 years of use for malaria, and over 40 years for lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, with a well-established safety profile, has been deemed by you and the FDA as unsafe for use in the treatment of symptomatic COVID-19 infections. Your opinions have influenced the thinking of physicians and their patients, medical boards, state and federal agencies, pharmacists, hospitals, and just about everyone involved in medical decision making.

    Indeed, your opinions impacted the health of Americans, and many aspects of our day-to-day lives including employment and school. Those of us who prescribe hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and azithromycin/doxycycline believe fervently that early outpatient use would save tens of thousands of lives and enable our country to dramatically alter the response to COVID-19. We advocate for an approach that will reduce fear and allow Americans to get their lives back.

    We hope that our questions compel you to reconsider your current approach to COVID-19 infection.

    Clinical trials of hydroxychloroquine in COVID-19 outpatients reported as safe

    By Dr. Liji Thomas, MDJul 27 2020
    Reviewed by Emily Henderson, B.Sc.

    According to new research published in the preprint server medRxiv* in July 2020, the use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) among outpatients in clinical trials, without high-risk factors for cardiac arrhythmia, is safe, with gastrointestinal side-effects being the most common side effects and no fatal adverse outcomes.

    Fauci is operating as a political figure not as a doctor. He told the truth at the very beginning of this pandemic but then it got all political. Those doctors are wasting their time trying to appeal to him as a doctor.
    Don't be afraid to see what you see

    Denmark: Government Tells Citizens The Truth About HCQ
    Published on 20 September 2020


    We reported yesterday on the astonishing success of the no lockdown, no mask policy in Denmark, a nation which has not suffered the rampant number of deaths from COVID19 seen in politically-biased US cities such as New York. Below is the official statement from the Danish Government revealing the truth about hydroxychloroquine, regarded by many thousands of doctors worldwide as a “game changer” in defeating the pandemic.

    The Danish Medicines Agency writes as follows:

    COVID-19: Facts About Chloroquine And Hydroxychloroquine

    07 April 2020

    There are many rumours that hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine has a documented effect on COVID-19 and that other countries have approved it for COVID-19. Read the facts here.

    Hydroxychloroquine is a medicine in tablet form authorised in the EU for the treatment of arthritis and skin diseases and for the prevention of malaria. The fact that the medicine is authorised means, in this context, that the authorities have granted a marketing authorisation to the company which manufactures the medicine. The marketing authorisation allows the company to sell the medicine for the treatment of precisely these diseases. The marketing authorisation has been granted based on documentation from the company that hydroxychloroquine is effective on these diseases and is safe to use. There is a medicine called chloroquine, and there is a medicine called hydroxychloroquine. Only hydroxychloroquine is sold in Denmark.

    Since 23 March 2020, hydroxychloroquine in Denmark can only be prescribed by hospital doctors and specialist doctors for rheumatic disorders, skin diseases and childhood diseases as well as only be used in clinical trials. This means that Danish hospital doctors, for example in connection with research projects, have the possibility of testing if hydroxychloroquine has an effect in COVID-19 patients.

    In principle, Danish hospital doctors are also allowed to use hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 patients even if they are not enrolled in research projects. This is because doctors have the right to prescribe the medicine of their choice according to their assessment and under their own responsibility. [emphasis added to this key paragraph]

    The Danish Medicines Agency cannot authorise hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 if the company manufacturing the medicine does not apply for an authorisation. Marketing authorisations are granted based on the initiative of the company. In addition, marketing authorisations are based on documentation of efficacy and side effects, and more. Right now, only very few studies have been conducted to investigate the effect of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine on COVID-19, and their total evidence base is not solid enough to assess if chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine has a real effect on COVID-19. Likewise, it has not been established what side effects the medicines could cause when used to treat COVID-19.

    Other Countries’ Reports On Chloroquine And Hydroxychloroquine

    Right now, there are many reports in the press and social media claiming that drug regulatory authorities in other countries have authorised chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of COVID-19. It is important to note that the authorities in other countries have not issued marketing authorisations that allow chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine to be marketed as a treatment for COVID-19. The case here is that doctors in other countries have been given possibilities to use the medicines to treat COVID-19 patients. Possibilities that are similar to those given to Danish hospital doctors.

    USA’s Reports On Chloroquine And Hydroxychloroquine

    The FDA has granted a special permission to use chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine in clinical trials and in emergency situations. This is not a genuine authorisation, but a possibility given to American doctors to use chloroquine in COVID-19 clinical trials and in the treatment of COVID-19 if the doctor has no other options.
    See the FDA’s announcement here.

    European Medicines Agency (EMA)
    The EMA has announced that chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine should only be used for the treatment of COVID-19 in connection with clinical trials or in national emergency use programmes for the treatment of critically ill COVID-19 patients. Denmark is thus in line with the recommendations from the European Medicines Agency, offering the same possibilities to use hydroxychloroquine in clinical trials and allowing hospital doctors to prescribe it. See the EMA’s announcement here.

    The Authorisation In Poland

    Poland is the only country to have actually authorised a chloroquine-containing product for supportive treatment of COVID-19. The product concerned is produced locally and called Arachin. It is manufactured by the Polish company Adamed Pharma. The Danish Medicines Agency has not seen the Polish company’s authorisation basis, and the drug regulatory authorities in Poland have informed us that use of the product is only permitted in hospitals in Poland. Denmark can neither assess nor issue a marketing authorisation for a Polish product if the Polish company has not submitted an application to the Danish Medicines Agency with the intent of putting it on the Danish market. See Poland’s announcement here.

    The Danish Medicines Agency has also investigated how several other European countries like the UK, Spain and Belgium have approached the question of hydroxychloroquine and COVID-19. Several other European countries have also emphasised that hydroxychloroquine is not authorised for COVID-19, and that there is presently no evidence of the treatment. Several countries have announced that they indeed prefer the treatment to be conducted as part of clinical trials.

    The Danish Medicines Agency is following international research closely. At present, there are not enough scientific studies to draw any conclusions on the effect of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine on COVID-19.

    Fauci has worked for the federal government since 1968. Fauci has been the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984.

    Fauci went straight from medical school into the government, so he didn’t practice medicine or treat patients.

    I think he's in love with his celebrity. I know he's a Hillary fanboi, and his wife worked for Obama.
