[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I applaud the efforts to test cheap generic drugs with long histories of usage and safety for effectiveness against Covid-19.  These include hydroxycholoriquine, colchicine, and BCG vaccinations, all of which cost pennies to produce.

This disease is reaching many emerging market countries for which promising drugs like remdesivir are simply out of reach from a cost perspective.

For this reason alone, [b]I cannot understand why people are so eager to pour cold water on efforts to investigate these older generic drugs.[/b] Remdesivir and plasma treatments are great but they are luxuries reserved for rich countries.[/quote]

Because Trump said something favorable about it.

It’s really just that simple, unfortunately. He says “yes”, they immediately say “no”. He says hot, they say cold. He says low, they say high.

Total binary unthinking. [/quote]

That simple and very sad. Letting their hate blind them.[/quote]

So let’s use a neutral source. What did Fauci say about it?

CDC quietly changes advice on malaria drug as Trump pushes it as a coronavirus cure

https://news.yahoo.com/cdc-quietly-changes-advice-malaria-005500386.html

[i]The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention removed dosage guidance from its website for a pair of antimalarial drugs President Donald Trump has been pushing as effective treatments for coronavirus.

The move comes three days after Reuters reported the CDC added the dosing information to its website after Mr Trump had pressed for the drugs - hydroxychloroquine and chrloroquine - to be more widely offered for use in treating the virus.

Dr Anthony Fauci, the government's top infectious disease doctor - has cautioned against rushing in to use the drug without proper testing.

[b]"I think we've got to be careful that we don't make that majestic leap to assume that this is a knockout drug,"[/b] he told Fox News. "We still need to do the kinds of studies that definitively prove whether any intervention, not just this one, any intervention is truly safe and effective."[/i]
