Covid 19 drug

This is from a doctor friend of mine:

For the record, the drugs Mr Trump has been touting as cures for coronavirus are hydroxycloroquine and azithromycin. The study that this came from was a small sample size of 26 patients. Six of these patients were lost to follow up because 3 ended up in the ICU on a ventilator and 1 died. The medicines did show helpful clearing of viral load and may end up being a good treatment option but the sample was tiny and these 4 patients did much worse than the control group. Studies like this are put out quickly in an effort to help others treating Covid19 to see what may be worth trying and continuing to study but for the President of the US to say and tweet that this is “one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine” is not only presumptive but reckless and dangerous. Here is the study:

He doesn’t need to say anything about it even potentially being a game changer.
Trump is careless with his words. A lot. Y’all worship him tho, so downvote away.

I know! I'm this close to drinking aquarium cleaner. Trump shouldn't be so reckless.

If it stops just half of the severe cases the death rate drops drastically to influenza levels.
There is no treatment for any diseases/virus that is a cure for all and thinking this is the same is naive but apparently will be the MSMs new scare tactic.

I’m supposed to read 24 pages of medical research from French doctors who are supposedly friends with TechDawg2007 from Bawville.
Just making sure.

Well, technically death is a cure all...

Stay with me. I 100% think that story had nothing to do with Trump and it’s outrageous for anyone to say otherwise.

You know that chemo and radiation don't work on everyone with tumors, right?
Know what happens to folks who don't opt for either? They usually die of cancer.
Know what happens to folks who opt for this treatment? Some of them live 5 years. Others die of cancer (and have to deal with the negative effects of chemo and radiation).
So, medicine isn't magic. It sort of falls into the category of "medicine."

"What the hell do you have to lose? It may work it may not let's see"
That's not wreckless...that's a straight forward answer...

It helps in that physicians may be more likely to use these meds in off label controlled manner. They are old so their toxicities and contraindications are well known. This is not typical Phase III trial. These are not typical times.

Did you really just pretend that this came from a friend of yours?
