Trump has financial interest in Plaquenil, the brand-name version of hydroxychloroquine.

[Rigby5]

Dopey Donald Trump is the most corrupt POTUS ever. He has infected Trumpies and stolen their minds.

Plaquenil is probably only one of the many acts of corruption Trump is engaging in.

Do you think that it would have been better for President Trump to tell the people they have no hope and they should use the time of the lockdown to get on the phone to a good mortician and make arrangements?

Of course, one of the President mutual funds might have Service Corp (the funeral home stock) and libs would complain about that, too.

Less then 10% of the population is going to get COVID-19, and of the people who do get it, only about 2% of them will die. So this is not very significant for most people.

Good question?
I don't know.
It depends on what the risks really are vs the economic risks?
If there was hysteria, then a fake cure claim might be warranted?
But I don't think it is usually a good idea to lie.
And I don't think there is a cure, just a slightly better strategy for treatment of the severe cases.

What risk. This drug has been tested more than you. It is incredibly safe.

No, hydroxychloroquine is not at all incredibly safe.
Besides causing retinal failure, it also can cause heart attacks.
And what is even worse, is that if you take hydroxychloroquine either before you have it or when you only have a slight case, it will make it much worse.

The only time hydroxychloroquine is useful is after you have a full blow case that is near fatal, and even then it is only successful less than half the time.

 

[Dragonlady]

The ONLY reason why this drug is being pushed worldwide, is because Donald Trump is going on TV every day saying it's a "miracle drug", even though there is no evidence that it is. You choose to believe him. I'm not that gullible or stupid.

Well, actually you are but that's for another thread.

France allows use of Chloroquine to treat Covid-19 patients
by Staff Writer
March 28, 2020

The French government has reversed an earlier ban on hydroxychloroquine for treating COVID19 patients.

The ban was reversed in light of successful clinical studies showing significant efficacy against the virus.

Hydroxychloroquine may now be prescribed to treat COVID-19 in France, according to the government.

Chloroquine, an anti-malarial drug works in a different way and is given to people to prevent malaria infections if they are bitten by a mosquito carrying the parasite.

The drug works by salts inside them poisoning parasites and preventing them from growing inside human red blood cells.

India, Hungary & the United Kingdom have all banned export of the drug to save supply for themselves.

Jordan and France authorized use of hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 while Bahrain claims success with drug on coronavirus patients.

France Officially Sanctions Drug After 78 Of 80 Patients Recover From COVID-19 Within Five Days
By Amanda PrestigiacomoDailyWire.com

“This ensures continued treatment of patients who have been treated for several years for a chronic condition with this drug, but also allows a temporary authorization to allow certain patients with coronavirus to benefit from this therapeutic route,” said France’s director general of health Jérôme Salomon.

The move comes after infectious diseases specialist Didier Raoult announced new clinical results, which can be accessed here, that show 78 out of 80 patients treated with chloroquine recovered within five days, reported Trustnodes.

Except that 78 out of 80 patients didn't recover in this study. If you read the actual study, the drug was only used in 22 cases, not 80. There was a link to the peer reviewed study. And the drug only worked well in combination, with the second drug.

No it's not. It can cause heart attacks, blindness and death.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

All of the complaints everyone has are absolutely true IF people were running down to Walgreens and buying it like Excedrin. This drug has been successfully used for more than 60 years without blindness or heart failure.

For all their stated reliance on science the science hating left wants to get between patient and doctor to tell those doctors what they can and can't prescribe. All on the basis of how much they hate Trump. Telling someone they have to die because you hate Trump has already lost at least one democrat.

 

[Mac-7]

I predict that we will find that democrats are invested in Sanofi also

That might matter...if they were touting it like Trump is.

They ain't

If trump is invested in Sanofi, and we have no evidence of that yet, the only thing that matters is does the drug help or not?

thats all that matters

Three studies. The first one out of France said it showed "promise" but it only had 6 subjects. Larger tests in Italy and China said it had little to no effect, and what little benefit it had didn't outweight the side effects and risks.

The same drug showed promise in labratory trials for MERS and SARS but clinical trials in humans were a bust.

My friend in New York sad that they now have enough blood from resolved cases that they collecting cases for anti-body therapy trials. That's the good news.

The bad news is that hospital staff are being told to treat all Covid19 patients as DNR's because of the lack of protective equipment and masks. Because rescusitation attempts require close personal contract, staff who are getting sick and unable to work, further endangering care, are told to protect their own health and DNR Covid19 patients.

Time will tell about how affective it will be

but the idea that trump is promoting the medicine for personal gain is not credible

I don't give a flying fuck about your imaginary career halfwit. The drug has been used for almost 100 years. It is WELL known what its side effects are. It is as safe as ibuprofen, and there are real peer reviewed studies that have been done, and are currently being run that show that.
