Once again, you have zero direct knowledge regarding anything at all at NYT and WaPo. Your grossly uninformed OPINION is pure, unadulterated horseshit.

Now now Chicks, don't be too hard on the fella. He's been told that anything that doesn't praise the Mango Jeezus is fake news.

Criminy. How old are you? I think we need an age restriction here.

They’re about as capable of rational thought as a rock. Disgusting Trumpkins.

Seriously? I ask you the same question I asked RickyM. How old are you?

This kind of nonsensical ad-hominem (spiced with projection) response was fairly common in the early days of the internet. But the world of internet forums is a more mature platform today. Try to catch up. If you have an opinion, feel free to state it. And even back it up if you want. But this ridiculous ad-hominem attack MO does not help your case, except in your particular choir.

And that choir includes the likes of Beavis and Butthead. The rest of us like to have an actual conversation. Join it if you dare.

HCQ is safe; FDA wouldn't approve it if it weren't. The problem is that it isn't an effective treatment for COVID-19. The whole HCQ thing started when China tried giving it to patients and it seemed to help them but as more doctors tried it in more countries, an overwhelming consensus was formed that it really didn't help while people still suffer the side effects from it.

Last I heard, the most effective treatment, which has caused survival rates to increase by roughly 2%, is remdesivir (a different antiviral) + steroid (I forget the name but starts with "a").

Wow, an actual rational post from you! I'm impressed! Keep up the good work!

A suspicious conspiracy leaning person may start thinking some have a $hit load of this med now needing to be move. Bought up in the anticipation of making a quick killing.

So getting some help now before it is too late.
