It is available and being studied while being used. As part of a study, certain protocols are followed which ensure safety for the patient. Currently, patients are given a small dose on admission and various data on the patients is carefully watched, especially the effect on heart functions. All this data is entered into a database for the studies. By following restrictions and protocols the chance of harm or death to a patient is greatly reduced.Correct. No one is opposed to the use of this or any other potentially helpful drug' The "Democrats are opposed..." lie is a Trump defensive talking point. Some people, many actually, both Democrat, Republican, and non-affiliated people want any of these drugs tested and studied as all drugs are tested and studied for specific illnesses. Otherwise, we risk harming people and or spending huge sums of money on snake oil. Our anti-science Trumper community is willing to gamble on harming people and wasting huge sums of money.No opposes it if was trialed properly and proven to be efficient. Trump isn't a doctor or research scientist.

So just to be clear. You don't think this drug cocktail should be available NOW, for sick COVID patients NOW, until it's "tested and studied". Correct?
Not what I asked. Since you're so concerned, YOU wouldn't take it. Correct?
I would never take it, if my doctor did not recommend it or some cocktail of it, for me to take.... would you?
You wouldn't take it because you're using common sense. Unfortunately Trump and the internet has made people think they can be their own doctor and can take medicines on their own because Dr.google told them them to.
