Media Attacks Trump for ‘Very Good News’

President Donald Trump’s media and partisan critics were quick to pile on when the President suggested at a press conference last Thursday that an inexpensive and widely available drug – first approved for the treatment of Malaria and some forms of arthritis in 1949 – might prove useful in treating those infected by the C****av***s or, as we are now supposed to call it, C****-**. In doing so they were quick to point out that his own experts, Dr. Anthony F***i and FDA Commissioner Stephan Hahn seemed to disagree with him.

But did they? When asked by a Fox News reporter if the drug, chloroquine, could prevent one from infection, F***i responded bluntly. “The answer is no,“ he said, “And the evidence … is anecdotal evidence, so as the commissioner of FDA and the President mentioned yesterday, we’re trying to strike a balance between making something with a potential of an effect to the American people available, at the same time we do it under the auspices of a protocol that would give us information to determine if it’s truly safe and truly effective, but the information that you’re referring to specifically is anecdotal; it was not done in a controlled clinical trial, so you really can’t make any.”

The media and Trump’s critics, excited by the possibility they could claim the President wrongly cited F***i. But the President never claimed either 1) that he could be sure the drug would work and 2) certainly didn’t claim it would work as a v*****e. What he did say was that other nations are prescribing it for those who have contracted the v***s because it seems to shorten their hospital stays and ameliorate the worst symptoms. If that’s true, making it widely available could potentially lessen the expected over-crowding of existing medical facilities, keep some who contract the v***s out of the hospital and hasten their recovery. That would be, as the President suggested, “very good news.”

But the New York Times, among others, used F***i’s comments to attack Trump in a series of news reports. One headline “Trump’s Embrace of Unproven Drugs to Treat C****av***s Defies Science.” This in spite of the fact that numerous countries that are dispensing the drug now are reporting precisely the reports that the president referred to in his remarks. Those countries include China, Australia, Norway, Britain, South Korea and Belgium.

What F***i and Hahn were saying was that this country insists on long and expensive testing before any drug is made available to the public or allowed to be prescribed for what are known as “off label” uses. Thus, while other countries can move forward with a promising treatment that has been proven safe for other uses, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration – while promising to speed things up or, as the President is demanding, “cut the red tape,” – may well continue to insist on extensive testing and new trials before approving its use to alleviate the suffering of infected American. Typically such tests cost millions and can take months or years to complete which is why treatment for other conditions available elsewhere are often denied to Americans.

Sometimes these requirements make sense … and sometimes they do not. This is one of those times. If the p******c is a global p******c then Americans should have access to the same treatment available elsewhere … The New York Times and the Food and Drug Administration’s bureaucrats notwithstanding.



What’s with F***i and his morbid reluctance to allow us to Try – that HydroxyChloroquine and pak to make up the cocktail is working 100% as has been said.
Why would Daniel Dae Kim (of Hawaii Five O) who came down with the W***n V***s one day and lambasted Trump for not allowing him to Try the drug, did get the cocktail and the day after his tirade against Trump he was praising HCQ b/c he is on the road to recovery?
What Daniel has done is make F***i out to be a fraud which the man probably isn’t after all but he is putting up an obstruction and that is unacceptable – I mean just how far does he think he’s supposed to go to show allegiance to Obama and not American Citizens who’re represented by Trump anyway ! – His Trump Derangement Syndrome has no place.
There’s something weird about F***i, of course he’s an Obama holdover but REALLY it’s time for him to put MEDICINE first or else get off the platform and let Dr. Birx in to lead that team who is also an Obama holdover but has been putting her medicine for America First.

Nowhere did Trump say the drug coctail was a cure. What he said was that it might shorten the infectious period. It is pathetic that they intentionally distorted his comments but not surprising. The origin of this technique is in the Soviet Union Disinformation agenda>

That's why I've been calling the mainstream media Pravda for the longest time because they are working for the Deep state and have been since the Obama Administration anybody that takes their talking points from a governmental website named Media Matters that right there Auto tell you that they're nothing but mouthpieces for government that's all they are! They can call themselves journalists all they want to but they're nothing more than trivializers and conspiracy theorists they just say wh**ever comes to their mind and hopes that it's sticks because they're too lazy to do some research on a store to find out if it's true or not! I don't call these people journalist because they're not for nothing more than social justice warriors with a press pass that's all they are! Until they do hard-hitting investigations they're not journalists they're just opinionated commentators Who hide behind their press credentials and claim that they're journalists!

Add that to the long list of other stupid "cures" out there. It's too bad that donald doesn't have the balls ( or sense ) to take advice from real scientists, instead of grabbing every ridiculous tidbit from the internet and it's massive bevy of kooks.

proud republican Loc: RED CALIFORNIA

Seriously?? He IS listening to an advice from REAL Doctors!!

I know the minute he stops buying our state-sponsored media is talking points then he can break himself out of the limbo until then he's been infected with government lies

The evidence that Dr. F***i dismisses as "anecdotal" is in fact substantial, if not overwhelming, evidence.

There is no reason that a full "scientific" trial could not be completed in less than 96 hours.

The t***h is that while these medications have been shown to be highly effective, there is not a

sufficient stockpile to treat all who need them. That is why there is a concerted effort to ensure

that existing supplies will be hoarded to treat the "elite" members of our society.

Dr. F***i should not only be fired, he should have his medical credentials revoked and be permanently

barred from practicing medicene anywhere in the U.S.!

Hoarding for the elite, but of course...

What else would these fricken apples do but for self preservations !

Well, here’s side to the coin~~ seems more like certain people would rather let others die all to trash Trump... Pathetically sick bast~~ that they are~~~

“I was at the point where I was barely able to speak and breathing was very challenging,” Giardinieri said. “I really thought my end was there.”

Then a friend sent him a recent article about hydroxychloroquine, a prescription drug that’s been used to treat malaria for decades and auto-immune diseases like lupus.

Overseas studies have found it to be promising as a treatment for C****-**, though it hasn’t been approved by health officials.

Trump last week said he was instructing the FDA to fast-track testing of hydroxychloroquine and a related drug, chloroquine, as treatment for C****-**.

Giardinieri said he contacted an infectious disease doctor about the drug.

“He gave me all the reasons why I would probably not want to try it because there are no trials, there’s no testing, it was not something that was approved,” said Giardinieri.

And I said, ‘Look, I don’t know if I’m going to make it until the morning,’ because at that point I really thought I was coming to the end because I couldn’t breathe anymore,” Giardinieri continued.

“He agreed and authorized the use of it and 30 minutes later the nurse gave it to me.”

After about an hour after taking the pills, Giardinieri said, it felt like his heart was beating out of his chest and, about two hours later, he had another episode where he couldn’t breathe.

He says he was given Benadryl and some other drugs and that when he woke up around 4:45 a.m., it was “like nothing ever happened.”

He’s since had no fever or pain and can breathe again. Giardinieri said doctors believe the episodes he experienced were not a reaction to the medicine but his body fighting off the v***s.

Giardinieri, the vice president of a company that manufactures cooking equipment for high-end restaurants in Los Angeles, said he had three doses of the medicine Saturday and is hoping to be discharged from the hospital in five days.

“To me, there was no doubt in mind that I wouldn’t make it until morning,” said Giardinieri. “So to me, the drug saved my life.”
