Antimalarial Drug revives the hope to treat Coronavirus infection | News & Updates
China uses anti-malaria drug, plasma against coronavirus

It seems that this drug is actually a promising treatment

 

[Bo Didleysquat]

This is very promising and important: A renowned French medical researcher, Dr. Didier Raoult, who has been tasked by the French government to find a treatment for COVID-19, is reporting that when the drug chloroquine/hydroxy chloroquine has been used on people infected with COVID-19, the drug has caused "a rapid and effective speeding up of their healing process." This drug has been used for years to treat malaria. A new study, published on Friday, March 13, by U.S. scientific researchers, also said that chloroquine "appeared to be an effective treatment, and appeared to align with the findings in France." South Korea and China are already using the drug to successfully treat COVID-19 patients.

French lab offers ‘millions of doses’ of Covid-19 drug

Tucker Carlson did a segment about this drug on his TV program tonight, which included an interview with a medical researcher from Stanford University. Here's the interview segment--it's barely 3 minutes long, and well worth the time:

Study: Malaria drug could be used to treat coronavirus

China has helped other nations with what they've learned. Japan has compounds proven efficacious in China and S Korea. Cuba as well. Why this is being preferentially pushed here?

Why not ramp up the testing to a large scale right away?

The article says it revives the "hope. " Key word there. Dr. Fauci was quick to caution Trump and the reporter about promoting that drug, for fear of not knowing. And Dr. Fauci is the head expert in the administration on coronavirus. I'm with Fauci and Maddow. Let's not conclude something is a cure before it is a cure. That's what Trump is trying to do. Throw spaghetti up against the wall and make believe it sticks. If it sticks, fantastic. But don't toss out things that aren't there yet. And that is what these two are saying.

Because it may have the reverse affect. That's why you have clinical trials.

You're dealing with folks who have no idea what a clinical trial is or what a double blind study is. Don put is own ignorance on very public display relative to this mindset, ... as well as the history that led us to these protocols and procedures.

 

[BWK]

By the way, do you know a big part of the reason we have a shortage of ventilators? Because China stopped shipping the circuit boards for them.

Also it is because they are expensive and hospitals only kept on hand what they need to for normal operations and a few spares in case something breaks.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/03/18/ventilator-shortage-hospital-icu-coronavirus/

And our hospitals run on the premise of keeping beds a full as possible.

So in their shortsightedness they fail to keep an adequate buffer of both services and equipment to deal with unexpected events

Most private hospitals are in the business of making money. They have no interest in becoming military hospital ready. It's not in their best financial interest.

Trump is splattering spaghetti all over the walls in every direction, because he knows he screwed up royally on all fronts. He ignored the briefings and intelligence of this virus months ago, made fun of it for a while, and now he is backpedaling miserably to cover his tragic mistakes.

When I saw him lower his head the other day, that was hilarious. Fauci is really having a hard time holding it together with Jim Bob standing in front of him giving us all his expert advise. Funny as hell, but boy what a tragedy it is when the country is faced with a pandemic, and you have Chauncey Gardner standing up there;

They are pretty shitty communists actually. They have far too much free enterprise for communists

Throw it all off on China, while our administration calls it a hoax, his followers said it doesn't exist, then Trump said it was a pandemic before it was declared one. But ha, look over that at China. Lol! What a bunch of losers.
