Are you saying the study is legit?



A recent study of covid19 patients in NY showed that 90 percent of patients put on a ventilator died. If you think we should not use Hydroxychloriquine because of this so-called VA study, do you think we should stop using ventilators?

Your comment validates my theory about people who dismiss the malaria drug. I'm not surprised furmanpals dismisses it because of previous comments he has made on a variety of topics. I believe most people who said the travel ban is racist also dismiss the malaria drug as a treatment.

If the medication has no efficacy, why has it been used by physicians in the US and other countries. Why have people who had the virus say it was the cure. You are implying a vast conspiracy theory.

Either left or right, politicizing medical treatments is absolutely nuts. Let the growing accumulation of scientific evidence lead the way on treatments, whatever that way is.

I didn't say that. People who use witchhunt and fake news in their normal conversations tell me exactly what I need to know about them. He's not a professional so how can I trust his "professional" opinion. It's your choice to trust him or not. Personally, I don't think Daily Mail is a reliable news source either.

You have yet to provide any evidence that the French scientist was wrong in his criticism of the other study. You are talking about an expression instead.

You are saying that I am getting you wrong which is a similar sentiment as saying 'that's fake news'.

You are saying you think Daily Mail is unreliable which is a similar sentiment as saying it is fake news. I assume you don't consider yourself untrustworthy despite these comments.

I don't understand why you would dismiss the messenger if you don't dismiss the message.

If somebody called you a witch and you are not a witch and you say that person is engaged in a witchhunt, are you untrustworthy or accurate.

Trump went on a dangerous rant yesterday about injecting disinfectants. Lysol had to respond will a statement to not do that. The man is a nut. Did you see Dr. Birx racial reaction to his comments? Probably the moment it finally hit her that she has sold her soul to the devil. Sadly, some of his minions will be drinking Lysol today and line up at tanning salons for an ingestion of UV rays.
