Yeah I don't listen to people just because they say stuff online.Pre trump before you even cared about it. Doctors make the calls, I trust them so should you, if you went on a trip last year to a place where malaria was endemic, your doctor would have prescribed HCQ in almost all cases as a malaria prophylaxis, though it is used as a treatment too, even if you had a heart condition in many cases. The mortality rate for malaria is atrocious and it claims millions a year, if you get it you're screwed for life, provided you survive, benefits outweigh risks. In fact in some countries where malaria is endemic HCQ without prescription and is as common as aspirin.
You have taken your propaganda war to the wrong place and are wasting your time fighting the wrong person for the wrong reason. This discussion was pre trump and even pre flawed french trial, there was a reason supplies of HCQ were getting low even before Donald and the right knew about it, doctors were prescribing it at the time and apparently it was a crime to post and report about it at the time. My posts on the subject have been balanced and I've posted the bad out comes from trials and even minimised a positive pre trial out of concern about the political situation. I've followed the evidence and I'm not getting ahead of my skis and neither should anybody else, professional ethicists make the calls on ending studies these days and they are starting to speak to some of them now. I was gonna post the who opinion on it but there is too much hysteria around it for rational discussion.
There was a shortage of ventilators at the time and they were telling seniors they would not get one, a death sentence then in the minds of many, fortunately things never turned out as feared in those dark desperate days of Donald fumbling the ball and limited public safety info in the news, there was lot's of panic though as the experts ran around with their fucking hair on fire!
We have wasted enough time on this vindictively motivated topic, I've told foggy to bury the bone, several times. You also know I have addressed this honestly and extensively with articles and timelines to aid your understanding. The Captain perceived it as a die at home order, because at the time some were projecting over capacity that never happened, thank God! Ask him.
So all your little passive aggressive post trying to act like you are in the right at all as a non doctor telling someone who is very rightly worried about this pandemic to bother their doctor with some drug Trump is promoting and telling others to not correct you is not going to work with me.
