It is odd to me that one should dismiss something that potentially can save their life, especially something that potentially they can get for themselves.
Oh..They know it works...However their hatred for this president is so strong that they would rather have Americans die. If they can somehow politically use the deaths of Americans against him....”Sick”

You obviously didn't bother to read the rest of the post.

Hint: It has nothing to do with any sort of "them".

A physician on here said Azithromycin has antiviral effects as well as antibiotic, so that could be why it helps.

If true that might help. There is a machine that takes blood out of you oxygenates it and puts it back.
What you are describing is called ECMO: extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Many hospitals do not have a single machine to do that.

The clinical trial is being performed by Dr Boulware at University of Minnesota an infectious disease expert. This has still not been proven to be effective. They are looking for 1500 volunteers in a controlled study. Meanwhile nothing from stopping people from using Chloroquine if there are few choices.
