The US House Speaker says president should not be taking a drug that has not been approved to ward off coronavirus

Nancy Pelosi has led a chorus of surprise and alarm after Donald Trump said he was taking the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine to ward off coronavirus.
Trump’s own government has warned that the drug should only be administered for Covid-19 in a hospital or research setting due to potentially fatal side effects.
The US House Speaker did not mince her words when she was asked on CNN about the president’s decision.
“He’s our president, and I would rather he not be taking something that has not been approved by the scientists, especially in his age group and his, shall we say, weight group ... morbidly obese, they say,” she said.
People are laughing but he aint dead yet. Maybe there is something to it.
The problem with the treatment is it only costs 50 cents per dose and Dr Fauci doesn't hold a patent on it.....so of course....he wants to ban it's use.
Trump's own CDC, and his own FDA both advise not to use it for Covid-19 because it can kill you.
Yeah....I see their point....except for the fact it's been in use for over 100 years...and nobody's ever complained about it before.....so there's that......
No. The side effects have been known for a long time, but the benefits for some diseases make it worth the risk. There are no benefits for Covid-19. My cardiologist is some sort of big shot in the local Republican party, but even he advises against it's use for his patients. That's one example of a right winger behaving ethically in one case, but they are very rare.
Yes.....the side-effects have been known because of the fact that hydocxy has been used for decades. Well done, Sherlock.
And I wouldn't take your advice even if you claimed that your doctor invented the shit.
I've had it up to my eyeballs with lying Democrats trying to destroy the motherfucjing economy BTW.
Your tantrums are quite entertaining.
Not a tantrum.
The problem with you is you can't win an election without cheating.
You can't win an argument without lying.
You can't stand America so you want to screw it up.
I think this latest hoax is just showing everyone just how messed up you people are and they're going to vote accordingly, which is why Democrats want open borders. Because anyone who has been alive and living in the US can see now what you turds have to offer. Life is going to become very unpleasant for folks like you this year. Trust me.
Interesting how you actually believe all that crap when the rhetoric you hear on right wig radio and fox is the only reason you have to believe it. Nobody wants completely open borders, or to hurt our country, but in your paranoid little mind it is all true.
You don’t think liberal politicians want open borders? Ever heard the phrase “actions speak louder than words.”
No I don't think that liberal politicians WANT open borders. However, they have empathy for those less fortunate than us and will act accordingly. I agree that our borders be closed until we get this virus under control and I believe that the white supremacist little Miller will convince Trump to keep them closed.
In Reagan's presidency, he was ordered by Congress to export undocumented immigrants. In those days, Republicans had empathy for others and Reagan could not bring himself to do it. Of course, the party of Trump is
Republican in name only as it foments hatred among Americans, weakens our intelligence agencies for Trump's benefit, and attempts to prosecute opponents like in a banana republic. Welcome to Trump world.
