For the record Trump did not tout the drug as a game changer. He said the drug need to be pursued to see if it would successfully treat coronavirus. However, you libtard fucks always got to twist shit up to make someone look bad. In this case you are the only one that looks bad. Now go climb back under your rock where you love it so well.
Trump, did call this drug a game changer, and by doing so created shortages of the drug that are needed for conditions that it is actually prescribed for like Lupus.

MWP, did you even read this article? It was actually quite positive on hydroxychloquine, when you read between the lines. It gave an example where 3,000 health care workers were being given this drug as a preventive measure. Do you really think doctors would prescribe a drug to their own health care workers if they thought it wouldn’t help them?
To sum up this article it, more or less, says the jury is still out on this drug and how effective it is at treating the coronavirus. It tries to put a negative spin on it, but if you read through the lines, it’s more positive than I thought. Doctors are using it in a lot of hospitals, and it’s not because of something Trump said at a news conference.
I also looked up your claim of shortages of this drug for patients with Lupus and I couldn’t find one example of this happening. I found many articles (a couple were in The NY Times) that said this could happen, or this was a concern. I couldn’t find any that said this has happened. I found one article that said a Lupus patient “had trouble” filling their prescription, but this could be for many reasons, one being a political agenda against Trump.
Trust me, The NY Times and all your liberal buddies are looking for that one Lupus patient that can’t get this drug. If they find this one patient, trust me, it will make the headlines in all the liberal newspapers. So far it hasn’t happened, so they resorts to fear monger and playing “what ifs. Well so far “what if” hasn’t happened.
MWP, you really need to go back to grade school and take a course on reading. I can see you have a difficult time comprehending things. You see things in articles that aren’t there. Probably because you’ve been a liberal so long your brain no longer functions normally.
