    Agreed but it is a bloody sight better than hiring a witch doctor and drinking goat urine

    I wonder how many deaths the democrats are going to be responsible for because Trump thought it was worthwhile and because they refuse to get vaccinated.

    Brightfart? Bannon’s paper? How is he going with his court case for ripping off a charity BTW? And then there was old Milo Yiannopoulos - far right wing lover and paedophile - brightfart just hasn’t been the same without him

    Yes very “scientific” and of course much to be preferred over all those pesky scientists running independent drug trials throughout the world - the ones who found HCQ did diddly squat - which we KNEW because it failed trials in SARS 1, MERS, HIV etc

    as for the “cheap medication” argument one of the only drugs that has found to reduce mortality by up to 30% is Dexamethasone which is one of the oldest cheapest drugs on the market

    none of the Trump people or congress took the drug, that is enough to tell me it's not safe and effective at curing covid

    you mean if Trump fails to get the people to take the vaccine, that will all be on Trump

    Trump's lying to the public has caused a lack of trust in the Trump admin

    how does the public know if Trump is playing down the dangers of the Vaccine or not

    A large part of my investments are in mutual funds. When it comes down to it, I have no idea what individual companies I am invested in and I really don't care. They are just broad categories like medical equipment or real estate. The people managing the mutual funds move the investments around to get the best return. It is absurd to think that something that small would influence someone who is invested in mutual funds.

    The complications with the heart were known before Trump suggested it's use for COVID-19. It was not something that somebody came up with just to oppose Trump.

    For me is is not a matter of loyalty. I am 83 which puts me in the really vulnerable group. Based on the results of some of those vaccines being tested on thirty five thousand people with few problems, I would take it right now. I just figure the chances of it helping outweighs the chance of it hurting.

    There is probably not a drug on the market which does not have bad side effects. I take nine different prescriptions. If I was concerned about the side effects, I would be a nervous wreck. I figure the good outweighs the bad. If I start seeing something which looks like a side effect, I stop taking it and call my doctor.

    But this is the point - there ARE no measurable effect on your risk of getting CIVID or your recovery time if you rake HCQ

    Different studies disagree and the side effects are minimal.
