I’m Not a Doctor

If true, that's fine.

But unfortunately, he's not qualified to make that judgement. And he jumped right over Fauci before Fauci could respond to the Hydroxy question, and then quickly ushered Fauci off the stage ending the presser. If that's not suspicious, I don't know what is?

So yeah, if he would have let Fauci speak & Fauci said it was good, then I'm on. But hearing it from Trump? No way!

What kind of positive results? On patients who very likely would never have need any treatment like Dr. Raoult's "trial" (after excluding the 6 patients who started his trial but ended up in the ICU)?

Ask the doctors who reported them.
BlueTex said:
This is taken directly from the Fact Sheet for Patients as part of the FDA's EUA for hydroxychloroquine sulfate: There is no U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved product available to treat COVID-19.

You just supported my point. The FDA granted emergency authorization to use it.
 
BlueTex said:
I have no objection to trying it but the results seem very minimal at best... I DO OBJECT to saying it is approved by the FDA implying the FDA has approved it as a treatment for COVID19. That's simply wrong... This is directly from the required notice under the FDA EUA for patients:

There is no U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved product available to treat COVID-19.

See, that's the thing. If Trump is willing to deceive with the bolded, how can we believe anything he says in the matter? We can't. He's simply not to be believed, even if he may eventually be found to be right.
 
Chomsky said:
Yeah, did you catch that where Trump ended Fauci's time at the dias after the Hydroxy question? And I think much less of Fauci now when he capitulated & stood down, rather then answer the question. Trump knew what was going to happen.

trump **** stains and ruins every person who works for him.

IMHO, having an effective treatment, cure or preventative for COVID-19 is Trump greatest (only?) hope for getting us back to work before a vaccine is available. Basically, Trump saw something on TV which he thinks, hopes and dreams holds promise. The fact that it is also an inexpensive generic is an added bonus.

And he may indeed be right. But I'm not going to believe hearing it from him.

Yeah, he really put Fauci in a ****ty spot there. He's going to have a lot to think about tonight.

As is, all trump cares about is ratings, not the lives of Americans, like those on the USS Theodore Roosevelt.

You mean like that couple in Arizone? Oh, wait, they're Democrats. :lamo

Why would democrats think anything he says constitutes medical advice? Only a trump supporter is stupid enough to think that.

trumpophobes, eh? are you down with Dr. Fauci not being able to answer appropriate questions because of deranged temper tantrum trump —

I have no idea what you're talking about.

They don't care. A CNN reporter tried a gotcha question to make news for his ****ty network, because he knew the haters would go right along with his nonsense.

Trump warned the country about a rough two week period coming up. How dare he offer hope by suggesting the dying might benefit from a drug the FDA already granted emergency approval! He wasn't promoting the drug... He was reaching out to the people whose loved ones are already in a rather dire situation. But as usual, CNN lied about Trump's intentions, and their lemmings go right along repeating their usual :bs.
 
Citizen said:
So when is that gonna happen
Click to expand...

Never for some.

When is it going to happen that there won't be people out there who deny the holocaust ?

When is it going to happen that there aren't people out there that think the Jews are the ones who orchestrated 9-11 ?

There's always some nuts out there ; )

OK, but Trump is far from alone in seeing its potential. One fairly quick "sanity check" might be to see if folks taking that prescription drug for its currently intended purposes are experiencing fewer or no COVID-19 deaths. There does seem to be some anecdotal evidence of that - areas with malaria (where many are now using that drug) seem to be having fewer COVID-19 deaths.

What is the hold up? There are thousands of patients in ICU's around the country who will be that "very bad week" coming up. Who is holding up giving them this miracle cure?

Some Lupus and Malaria patients are having difficulty getting Rx's filled for their life saving and treatment. Thanks, POTUS.

Why don't you write or call the WH and inquire... tell them what you think of their delay.

Maybe Trump should try playing "opposite day" with them. If a drug is promising he should say "no way we'll ever use it" Then these dufi ( Plural of dufus) would clamor to get the drug approved. He's got a task force of superstars he listens to them. But he's "Trump! :twisted:"

Uhhhh...no they weren't. That doesn't even make sense. But I guess you're just doing your adpst rathole thing, so bye.

Is it the ICU doctors withholding this miracle cure? Why are they withholding it? Are they all democrats hoping to defeat Trump?

Well his base was obviously stupid enough to think that. They specifically cited him for why they took it.

If I could gather up all their hot air in the spin machine, I'd market it. Think of what we could do with all that energy. ;)

That's interesting.

I've seen or heard no one claim they're taking ANYTHING because the president advised it.

THAT would usher in a new era wouldn't it ? The president as your Doctor LOL

Rest assured that it is not Trump - since he is not legally allowed to write "off label" prescriptions.
