In case anyone missed it, 4000 critically ill COVID patients in NYC are being treated with the anti-malarial drug. Without question, we will know more soon. https://nypost.com/2020/04/05/ny-cor...-malarial-drug . Does anyone want to take a guess at what the results will be?

Tests have been conducted in China, France, and NY and in all cases, the drug helps people with covid-19. What's more interesting is people that have been treated with hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine for lupus and malaria have an extremely low incidence of covid-19 compared to the general population so it's also apparently a very effective prophylactic.

My guess is the results will be very good.

In any event we'll know soon enough.

Who the hell decided it was a good idea to get on a cruise ship right now? Should lock the exits and not let those people spread it any more

On March 7th, Mike Pence proclaimed that cruise ships were safe. This particular cruise began on March 15th.

This is not true. Pence was saying on March 7th that seniors and those with underlying health conditions should avoid cruises.

Furthermore, the State Department and the CDC around March 9th were telling people not to cruise.
