Nothing here is unproven.

I think calling it a "miracle cure" is inaccurate. Its not a cure at all, its a therapeudic, or treatment of the symptoms. Its a therapuedic that can save lives, but it still isnt saving everyone. If the patient has suffered too much lung damage, or has other underlying health issues, they may still die.

I have read 2 articles where 100% effective was used. Dr. Zelenco's, and an article about Doctors using it as a preventative med, to protect medical professionals on the front lines, and its been 100% effective at some Hospitals.
No. Hydroxychlormine is also used for RA and lupus.

The z pack is an antibiotic

It had some success, but they were not orignally pairing it with Azithromycin (an antibiotic). It was when the French Doctor added the AZ or "Z-pack" to the HDQ did the outcomes improve to very high levels.

It's used off label for RA and lupus. It's approved for malaria. I mean, you probably know that but there seems to be some weird sentiment that off-label isn't common.

Fauci is older than Biden. This Trump cocktail looks like the real deal. Don Jr. and Eric ought to take this to market.

If you get Covid-19, you most certainly WILL be buying it, and Trump Drugs will literally be inside your head!

How about quinine? Could a good preventative measure for CV be simply having a couple of gin and tonics? I think I'll be proactive with the idea.

It isn't. It isn't going to stop 100thousand or more people dying.

It will make the people who recover maybe recover faster -- but how faster -- a day...okay good.

No miracles.

Relax.
I don't know why but it never ceases to amaze me how the left is so negative about a possible cure.

I pray that the New York Times verified their story in today's news. If they did their jobs properly, then I agree with your assessment. Trump was all over this almost 2 weeks ago. If the Trump Drugs saves Thousands of lives here, his approval ratings will soar.

Fauci looks younger than sleepy Joe, and is so much more alert, and articulate.

Here's the thing though: You guys act like it's a true story, and the only reason it's not getting out is because "the librul media" won't publish it.

Riddle me this:
President Trump has DAILY press briefings. Why is he not telling us about it? Do you hold him accountable for withholding cures? (Or do you maybe realize that the fake news here is the right-wing propaganda machine, and that FINALLY someone got to Trump and appealed to him that if he keeps spreading lies like "we have this contained" that he loses when they get proven false?)


At best, there are some anecdotal cases saying there is correlation. Correlation does not always equal causation. But you can bet your sweet-ass that if this were true, and the press was not reporting it, that your POTUS would be spouting it off at every conference (as he should, IF it were true).


Think people. Your conspiracy theories don't make much sense, now do they?
All you have to do is read the posts on this thread from the liberals to know they don't want it to work.

I believe it will come out later that it was being kept a secret to avoid a run on these meds.

do you have TDS? Why would our POTUS keep this from the american public when he has daily briefings?

That is a really big accusation. I don't even like the guy and I'm don't think he'd do that. (In fact, I think it's more likely he'd try to claim credit for a French study of a drug that existed long before Trump's presidency.)
