PHOENIX – Hospital officials are warning against home remedies for COVID-19 after a metro Phoenix man died and his wife was hospitalized when they ingested a chemical touted by President Donald Trump as a possible coronavirus treatment.
quote:
Already approved drugs are tempting for doctors to use off label, but formal studies are needed to see if they truly work for a new purpose or disease, said Dr. Ross McKinney Jr., chief scientific officer for the Association of American Medical Colleges, which represents about 400 major teaching hospitals across the country.
Chloroquine may look promising in a test tube, but “I’m skeptical it will be effective” in patients, he said last week in a call with reporters.

ITS ALL HIS FAULT!
Isnt it strange how journalists always sneak little snooty lines like this?
Is this entire article an OMB hit piece?

It was only a matter of time. If 500 mg is good, 1500 is even better.

Someone literally called this happening days ago on here, as soon as hydroxychloroquine was mentioned as *possibly* treating COVID

In a different form, chloroquine phosphate is sold as an additive to deal with infections and algae in fish tanks.
Dr. Daniel Brooks, Banner Poison and Drug Information Center medical director, told KTAR News 92.3 FM the aquarium form and medical form are “the same chemical structure.”
The Valley couple, both in their 60s, were concerned about symptoms and reportedly saw information online suggesting aquarium products could be used to combat coronavirus.
“Which is absolutely wrong and unfortunately potentially dangerous,” Brooks said.
He added that it appears the couple ingested the equivalent of several days worth of the compound as it would have been prescribed as medicine.
They felt sick within 30 minutes, Brooks said. The man died shortly after arriving at an emergency room. The woman was resuscitated and is being cared for at a Phoenix Banner hospital.

I missed the press conference where Trump told people to drink large quantities of algae cleaner.

Lots of gymnastics in that headline...

Exactly that compound has been known to preppers for a long time. The internet kills dumbasses everyday. shite I have to talk my mom off the ledge from crazy Facebook advice.
