More deaths, no benefit from malaria drug in VA virus study

Why would anyone listen to a study from China?

Trump was so desperate for personal glory, that he announced a breakthrough before the breakthrough. It was an unforgettable and unforgivable sin, in these very trying times.

Michigan State Representative Karen Whitsett (D-Detroit) has recovered from the Wuhan coronavirus. Now, the lawmaker faces a censure from her Democratic colleagues for crediting Trump for her recovery.

Detroit Rep. Karen Whitsett says she was experiencing the worst symptoms associated with the coronavirus before she took the drug hydroxychloroquine. If it weren't for President Trump, Rep. Whitsett says the drug wouldn't have been accessible to patients like herself. Less than two hours after taking hydroxychloroquine, the lawmaker said she began feeling the first signs of relief.

"If President Trump had not talked about [hydroxychloroquine], it would not be something that's accessible" in Michigan "because of an order that was put down in my state," Whitsett explained on Fox News earlier this month.

With no approved therapeutics to treat the Wuhan coronavirus, Trump and many coronavirus sufferers were hopeful when early evidence suggested hydroxychloroquine may be an effective treatment against the disease. The best part, the drug is well-known to be safe and already FDA approved for the treatment of other ailments, like lupus and malaria. Inexplicably, Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer moved immediately to block Michiganders from gaining access to the potentially life-saving medication.

Now that Rep. Whitsett has praised Trump, her fellow Democrats are furious with her. The 13th Congressional District Democratic Party Organization plans to vote on Saturday to formally censure the first-term lawmaker for her honest remarks about the president.

This is where I post this

Whitsett also has a history of statements and actions that have bucked the party apparatus, sometimes making negative statements about the party and Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer.

The Italian Society for Rheumatology studied 65,000 patients on longterm hydroxychloroquine for RA and Lupus.

Only 20 patients tested positive for COVID-19. No ICU, no deaths.

This is a 90% reduction in infection rate compared to the rest of Italy.https://t.co/Pta97oBA8O
