Lies about C***d Treatments

Donald Trump began shilling for the use of hydroxychloroquine at the very first of what became his daily White House update on the C****-** p******c. The drug is primarily used as an anti-parasitic, mostly in the treatment of malaria, and there was never any good evidence that it was effective in addressing C****-**.

Hydroxychloroquine can lower the number f infection-fighting white blood cells, making it possibly the worst type of medication for anyone trying to fight off an infection. However, in the earliest days of the p******c, Trump declared the drug a “game changer” and began stockpiling millions of pills. Under pressure from Trump and TV Host Dr. Oz, the FDA authorized emergency use of hydroxychloroquine as a potential treatment for C****-**. The drug didn’t work. The U.S. ended up with a mountain of worthless pills. And Trump went right on promoting its use long after the FDA officially warned consumers not to use it.

It’s impossible to know how much Trump’s promise that hydroxychloroquine was an effective treatment caused people to disregard the threat of C****-** or how much this opened the door to conspiracy theories about v*****es. But a new study in Biomedicine and Pharmacotherapy puts an estimated number on deaths directly resulting from the use of this drug to treat C****-** patients: 16,990.

That hydroxychloroquine was more likely to k**l than to cure was known very early. A study released just one month after Trump began promoting the drug showed that patients given Trump’s wonder treatment were more likely to die. The treatment was found to have a strong association with heart issues, and the results were so clear and overwhelming that the trial use of the drug was suspended ahead of schedule.

Those same results have now been confirmed by researchers in France who looked at the use of hydroxychloroquine across six countries. In all cases, the use of the drug with C****-** patients increased the rate of deaths. Overall, patients who were administered hydroxychloroquine were 11% more likely to die than those who were not.

Of course, there was one brilliant paper later cited by Trump that concluded treatment with hydroxychloroquine “improves survival by over 100%” even though 78% of the people in the study died. That’s science, people. Science that shockingly never made it into an actual peer-reviewed journal.

Due to the level of promotion hydroxychloroquine received, that 11% increased rate of death extends across millions of patients, both in the U.S. and overseas. In some locations, as many as 84% of patients diagnosed with symptomatic C****-** were prescribed hydroxychloroquine. The result is that an estimated 16,990 people died unnecessarily.

As scientists behind the study conclude, the story of hydroxychloroquine and C****-** illustrates “the hazard of drug repurposing with low-level evidence.” But it wasn’t the only time Trump declared that something unrelated would provide a cure for C****-**. Trump also promoted the horse deworming medicine ivermectin, which led to a run on the treatment at farm supply stores. Trump also pushed the use of convalescent plasma before any trials had shown it was effective.

The plasma idea, unlike the use of a malaria drug or horse paste, at least had the benefit of being based on a somewhat reasonable theory. However, it still didn’t work. And, as should go without saying, neither did the de-wormer.

Because Donald Trump can never be wrong, plenty of other Republicans were happy to hop on the quack medicine train. That included Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. For his new surgeon general, DeSantis went straight to hydroxychloroquine promoter, anti-masker, and anti-v*****e guy Dr. Joseph Ladapo. Lapado was back in the news this week after he appeared on Steve Bannon’s show to tell people to stop getting v******ted. Because m**A v*****es are an affront to God. “DeSantis’ Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo says c***d m**A v*****es “the Anti-Christ of all products… That’s so wrong, you know, it’s just complete disrespect to the human genome and the importance of protecting it and preserving it, and that is our connection to God.”

What a load of garbage. No amount of lies, stupidity, and causing nearly another 17,000 c***d deaths is enough to wake up i***ts wearing MAGA hats.

Nick, apparently your reading sk**ls are not all that good. Ivermectin and Hydroychloroquine have been used VERY successfully by many people world wide.. On the other hand, the all new drug designed soley for the profit of big Pharma k**led many many people.

There is plenty of evidence to be found if you truly care, but one source is the book by Erin Marie Olszweski, BSN. RN. The title is "Undercover Epicenter Nurse." For documenting and exposing the t***h of what went on in major Hospitals, she has received major death threats and even her children have been threatened. So, read the book and tell us what you think about the situation after you get a little first hand documentation.

How did folks do the math when eating the paste?
I mean, I gave my horse his bi-yearly dose a couple of weeks ago, and the one tube does a 1200 lb. horse. I don't have a scale, but I figger him to go around 950-1000 on the hoof. So, I squirted the whole tube in his mouth. He hasn't come down with C***d, not even one time!
Now, my granddaughter came down with C***d, and was prescribed Ivermectin in pill form. You know, the kind meant for humans?
She had mild symptoms, and was over it in a few days. 🤔
Over the years, I've used Ivermectin on all sorts of animals in "off lable" sorts of ways with great success.

This guy is a booger eater. Just my opinion.....

Archie, your wisdom is beyond measure...your opinion worth it's weight in gold. Indeed, booger he is...and like so many of these useful i***ts/evil leadership they are proud of lying/c***ting backed up by their firm/solid slobbering/drooling ignorance that they are too lazy to pick up a history book and see for themselves what happens when L*****ts are in charge.
L*****t core beliefs are, (always have been):
False Accusations
False Imprisonments
State Sanctioned Torture
State Sanctioned Murder
And what the rest of the world has suffered through when L*****ts have been in charge, (many still are), the American-Left/Democrat-C*******t Party wants to bring that same oppressive/murderous system right here...and if they can't trick/coerce us into accepting it...force will be next.
