Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine: what to know about the potential coronavirus drugs

[GumboYaYa]

18. Trump has turned what should be a medical decision based on patient needs

into a political issue.

We have evidence that hydroxychloroquine helps at least some Covid 19 patients. here is a recent article interviewing a woman who was prescribed the medication: https://www.forbes.com/sites/marybethpfeiffer/2020/03/22/one-patient-dodges-a-covid-bullet-is-she-a-harbinger-or-outlier/#6f69c2c35b84

South Korea has been prescribing it to patients as standard of care and their doctors attribute patient improvement to the drug. A French doctor gave it to patients in Avignon and had great results.

Of course it should be only administered by doctors in correct dosages. They need as many options as possible in their arsenal for a disease like this.

Trump's general lack of credibility on virtually every issue has created controversy in the public over an issue that should be decided by doctors and not people posting on the internet and via twitter.
