    Can anyone confirm?

    It sounds like if we have enough medicine or the ability to quickly reproduce the medicine then we are good to go right?

    I'm looking to sell our left over malaria and Azithromycin meds from our south africa trip.


    we stopped taking the drugs as it was winter there at time, and Capetown has virtually no malaria risk.

    The drugs made our stomachs feel very very weird and warm and our brains give us very different bad side effects so we decided to stop takin them 2-3 days into our 3 week trip ( I think we had to start taking them 3 days before we left the US)

    anyone see this stuff for sale on ebay yet?

            Chump, if your talking about the medicine, hydroxychloroquine that Sleazebag Don is running his gums about at these briefings, you need to listen tio the Doctor and what he says about it, because Sleazebag doesn't know shyte about the process it takes to get them approved.

              I think the question is....or should have been

              Do we have enough domestically. So that we can distribute to hospitals to all the people dealing with this in a bad way, and then do we have enough or can we get enough to have prescribed to people diagnosed with CV that will be at home trying to kick this.


              Its a basic supply and demand issue.


              the point being, that there aren't a ton of Americans that are traveling to places with Malaria risk. Very little demand

              wouldn't you estimate that to be less than 1% of the population?

              so thus our supplies and production for those drugs would be matched to those demands.


              Now our Demand could drastically spike.

              how do we meet it, if we need to get our supplies to make it, from china or even the complete drug from china... Will they send it our save it for themselves?

                  Z-packs are used to fight bacterial infections. They are an antibiotic. They do not fight against viruses like COVID-19. If you take a z-pack to fight a virus, all it will do is create more resistance to antibiotics in your body, making them less effective when you do have a bacterial infection.

                    Do you watch the briefings and have you seen what the doctor has said, not what your dumb ass president has said. The doctor has said empahatically NO, this medicine is not to be despensed because it hasn't even been tested for the coranavirus. Sleazebag is bullshyting the American people into beleivung he's found a cure...Just fukking stop it...As far as the medicine, its a generic, can be bought at Costco for 30 tablets for less than 14.00....Im sure can be manufactured in bulk rapidly...If it ever is found out to work, that will take months...JFC..

                        Ventilators are in shorter supply than anti viral drugs.

                        /Supply bottleneck.
