Navarro Throws Another White House Health Expert Under Bus Over Hydroxy

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

White House trade adviser Peter Navarro publicly bashed yet another White House public-health expert on Monday while touting an unproven anti-malarial drug, saying he took “exception” to coronavirus testing czar Brett Giroir dismissing hydroxychloroquine as an effective coronavirus treatment.

Days after CNN cut short a Navarro interview after he kept repeating the racist phrase “China virus,” the network invited him on for yet another contentious segment that featured the combative Trump aide disseminating coronavirus disinformation.

Navarro, who has been an outspoken proponent of hydroxychloroquine and has repeatedly attacked top infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci for warning about the drug’s lack of efficacy, doubled down on his embrace of the drug while taking aim at Giroir.

“One of the president’s chief advisers on the coronavirus pandemic, Adm. Giroir, he said given five studies now that have found the drug hydroxychloroquine—that there’s no proof that it helps with COVID-19 patients,” host Jim Sciutto noted. “I just wonder, given your past public support for it, is it time for the administration to focus on proven treatments for COVID rather than one that has not been proven?”

1. Trump and Kushner are sitting on something like 60 million doses of HCQ* and they know that ....

... come November they are going to be beaten badly and they are desperate to unload
that crap. It has been an all out push by the right wing and hate talkers to justify its use
and that it really is effective.

BTW when did Navarro get his MD?


* best guess ....your DU results may be different.

4. The Government Has That

Not PINO and JarJar.
They acquired 60 million doses in addition to the 20 million they already had in inventory.
They didn't buy it as a monetary investment.
Rather, because they're really bad at making a profit, they jumped the gun thinking this "wonder drug" would reverse the COVID scare and improve reelection chances.
That's also why they're still pushing it. In idiot america, 5 million people take it, it helps 50 bigmouths to recover some, and social media will be flooded with posts about the "miracle".
Some voters then think " He was right after all" and vote for PINO.
The move on and promotion of HCQ is and was a political stunt.

7. I am not too sure of the size of Trump's investment into HCQ but it is real

Both Trump and Kushner were aware of the C-19 virus in Nov. 2019 and the possible coming pandemic and
they both looked into ways of making money off of it. One with HCQ and the second was with their own C-19
test kits instead of a perfectly good one from the W.H.O..

9. That's Widely Known

It's a tiny fraction of a fund that they have a couple million in.
Even though PINO is far from a billionaire, the investment is a under a penny on the dollar.
5% of 1%, even if they "cornered" the supply is still tiny money.
This was a political stunt.

2. And In The Twinkling Of An Eye, Sir

All the quack economists became crack epidemiologists....

6. You Mispeeled Quack The Second Timel

Quack economists will always end up as quack epidemiologists.

3. When Trump leaves the White House for Mar-a-Lago before Joe takes over,

he is taking Navarro, who's unemployable, with him. Navarro will be his senior boot licker.

5. Snake oil salesmen

"leading" the "greatest country on Earth."

Probably an inevitable result of "greed is good" Reaganomics.

8. Who the fuck is Navarro to

opine on anything medical? Or is he just a self-proclaimed expert on anything and everything, like his boss?
