I agree 100%, but its not actually a cure, only a vaccine can be a cure. Its a treatment, or a therapeudic to treat the symptoms.

The Dems are scared to death that the Trump Drugs will be highly effective, and his pal Benjamin Netahyahu over in Israel will be pumping out Milions of doses to save American lives. This is their worst mightmare

If this comes about, the election is even more in the bag than it was before, and they'll have Trump on steroids for 4 more years.

You damn right I would!!! I have been rooting for the drug all the time. I will give credit to the first doctor or researcher who discovered that it was effective to COVID patients. Apparently that person deserves no credit. Trump should get the credit for being told by someone, who was told by someone who had read the research of someones, who had heard of some doctor using it.

So, my observation has been that it has been the more left-leaning people who have tried to follow the CDC and WHO recommendations to flatten the curve.

it has been people on the right who first tried to act like it was not a problem, because they (aka "trump himself") thought it would be better to act like he had it under control, when he didn't, and then after that, it's the people on the right attacking Fauci, because they know the truth is no friend of the right, and now it is RW media sites spreading fake news that is causing fauci to need more security.

From the get-go, it has been the right who has denied this thing is for real, who has called it overblown or a hoax, and who has been politically motivated to fight what needs to happen.

As for actual statements, I've ONLY seen politicians on the right to say it is patriotic for old people to take one for the team.

But by all means, keep making things up, and projecting your own warped values.

That's going to be a problem since he or she is most likely Chinese for some people. Though really, probably should look back to SARS. The reason they tried it was it showed some positive early results in SARS.

And how would they do that, exactly? Last I checked, neither one of them are doctors, so they can't write prescriptions.

Do they own a pharma company that I'm not aware of?

It can't hurt.

Well, alcohol is an immunosuppressant, so I suppose it could hurt, but it probably won't.

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.)
To avoid a run on the healthcare system by the general public. Things could get very ugly. I could see pharmacy's being held up and broken into overnight.

Fauci looks younger than sleepy Joe, and is so much more alert, and articulate.
Absolutely will. But it will be important to weigh the lives it saves versus the mass suicides that would be in pandemic proportions among Democrats
