Except it isn't a DNC or a left talking point to say HCQ does not work on Covid-19. It is only a far right talking point that it works. Stop lying.

20 years from now trumpers will still be talking about Hydroxychloroquine. It’s getting creepy at this point.

“That’s just hearsay. It’s not proven or known to be safe for this disease yet.”

“A guy on citydata said it was.”

“Who?”

“Bobbythegreat.”

“Well, that just changes everything; let me write you a prescription.”

And then, everybody clapped.
People aren't asking their doctors for the drug, doctors are prescribing the drug based on their symptoms. I know you've been told otherwise by your masters, but to those of us in the industry you look like a fool.

It really kind of is. We've seen mixed results with the drug and there's no question that Dexamethasone is more popular right now, but the drug is still being prescribed and it's still working for some people. That's just a verifiable fact.

Again, you are speaking from ignorance, parroting talking points you've been given, I'm speaking from first hand experience in the industry.

Not at all kiddo, but by all means, keep embarrassing yourself in order to push talking points your masters gave you.

No, it is not a "verifiable fact" when we do not know whether the doctors who are claiming success are giving it to patients who would have recovered without it. They cannot claim success in low risk people without an untreated group to compare.

You can argue that every instance of patients who were circling the drain that recovered after taking hydroxychloroquine is merely coincidence, but there are many doctors who would disagree with your assumption.

There's very solid reasons why the drug works in certain instances and again sure Dexamethasone is more popular right now, but a blanket claim that hydroxychloroquine doesn't work simply isn't accurate and is politically motivated.

I like how you didn't even attempt to make an intelligent response, probably for the best.
