    ‘game changing’ drug cocktail to fight coronavirus

    President Trump continued Saturday to tout a promising, but still unproven cocktail of drugs should be used “immediately” in the battle to contain COVID-19.
    “HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE & AZITHROMYCIN, taken together, have a real chance to be one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine. The FDA has moved mountains – Thank You!,” Trump tweeted Saturday morning. “Hopefully they will BOTH … be put in use IMMEDIATELY. PEOPLE ARE DYING, MOVE FAST, and GOD BLESS EVERYONE!”

    Trump also retweeted an online post about a small study of 26 patients that showed success in eradicating the new coronavirus when the two drugs were taken together. Some hospitals have already begun stockpiling hydroxychloroquine, and medical institutions are gearing up to conduct further studies. In the meantime, experts say using the drug and its cousin chloroquine to treat Covid-19 isn’t backed by enough scientific evidence.

    everything that comes out of trump's mouth seems wrong in one way or other.. why would this be any different?

    seems like often when he mentions health issues the FDA is putting out a clarification within an hour.

    The drug has a long track record in medicine, having been used since the 1940s as an antimalarial. The modern drug is made from the bark of the Cinchona plant, which was taken as an herbal remedy by indigenous Peruvians four centuries ago to treat fever. And there are some early indications it could work against SARS-CoV-2 infections.

    Hilarious that people actually think this will affect Trumps relection. It's going to be 10 times better now watching the liberal pussies cry again in November. What an incredible job he is doing in response to this crisis. Greatest President ever. Thank you Mr. Trump.

    One good thing about this drug combination is that they have been studied and approved for other purposes so it can at least be tried without a long safety trial process.

    The best drug is prevention. Shut everything down and stay home. The doctors are overwhelmed at the hospitals to even administer experimental drugs.

    Large health systems aren’t the only ones looking to build up a store of the drugs. Some U.S. physicians have been prescribing hydroxychloroquine for patients, friends and family as a Covid-19 treatment or as a precaution. Doctors have wide discretion to prescribe medications for unapproved uses.

    New york will start using it Tuesday. Hopefully kills off the virus and we can get back to normal. I have a feeling we are good now. I'm ready for life to come back.
