Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a former FDA commissioner, said that Hydroxychloroquine is widely used in Italy and if the drug was working, we would see the results in Italy. However, it’s used 53% of the time in Italy and it’s used on desperately ill patients with co-morbidities. Sometimes it is too late or they have too many other illnesses.
When asking more than 6,000 doctors worldwide, including doctors in Italy, they say Hydroxychloroquine with Azithromycin is the best treatment for COVID-19.
Dr. Stephen Smith, founder of the Smith Center for Infectious Diseases and Urban Health, and Dr. William Grace, former chief of medical oncology at St. Vincent’s Hospital find its effectiveness “very impressive.”
We need therapies and we need them fast. Politics has no place in this. The President touted the drug so the media and left-wing voices, including those of doctors, continually dismiss it.
Our unemployment is now at 4.4% with 701,000 new job losses. Over 10 million people have filed for unemployment. This is unsustainable.
The MSM should hope this treatment works instead of insulting anyone who says it does.

THE LATEST ON THE VIRUS
China admitted their numbers are inaccurate by announcing yesterday that they will start counting the afflicted who have presymptomatic and asymptomatic coronavirus.
Scott Gottlieb is a left-wing doctor but he is a good doctor. He is on top of the pandemic so we are posting his graphs.

Growth in total confirmed #COVID19 cases as a percent of total population by country: U.S. versus Spain and Italy. (Indexed to days since the first 100 cases were confirmed in each country). U.S. is still early, but on slower relative trajectory when compared to Italy and Spain. pic.twitter.com/KBCxGN2apq

The virus that causes #COVID19 wins with respect to transmission. “Seroconversion occurred after 7 days in 50% of patients (14 days in all), but was not followed by a rapid decline in viral load.” We don’t know if it transmits well at the point, but that it could is more bad news https://t.co/OsPX6zEG2Y

Yes there is no huge financial incentive to promote this drug, and the former FDA commissioner comes from that pharma environment.
He seems to produce lots of graphs on the growth of the disease, none on treatments. He is out of the loop, has little or no knowledge of what is going on.
You need to ask yourself the basic question. Why is Hydroxychloroquine working so well when anything else tried to date has not. Ya don’t sup[pose because it was designed to work on “virus’s” do you. And what is the coronavirus? Same reason medication designed to work on a bacterial infection works basically on all bacterial infections…… This ain’t rocket science!… Read more »
Symptomatic testing vs. deaths as of 4pm yesterday has a fatality rate of 0.4%. This isn’t accounting for Asymptomatic tests. That also doesn’t include those who previously had symptoms and dismissed it as a cold or other typical ailments. No One wants to report this because it doesn’t scare the hell out of people. As one on Fox said, “Folks… Read more »
@ T. Field,
So a Hasidic doctor in NY treating one ethnic group applies to all people in the world?
According to a report Fauci and the CDC have said the “models” can’t be trusted. If true, then What the Hell is going on. The policies set forth aren’t accounting for the aftermath. It is “assumed” afterwards that business as usual will prevail. Is That the typical response by society. Not in my lifetime. Generally people retract after such an… Read more »
Such pathetic lack of knowledge. The drug combination stops the virus replicating. It is pointless in using it when the virus has replicated to the point where disaster is unavoidable. Why do so many apparently informed powerful people seem to possess NO real knowledge. Look at the work of the Hasidic doctor treating 500 patients in New Your – for… Read more »
Italy has open borders and socialized healthcare. The controllers want most of humanity gone and this is a crisis that they won’t let go to waste.
