You know the old saying "Those that do not learn from history are condemned to repeat history." Back in 1987 there was a drug being used by some doctors to treat pneumonia in AIDS patients. It was called Bactrim. These doctors reported great success with the drug. According to them it was saving a lot of lives. And since the drug had been around for awhile it was a cheap treatment. They took the case for the drug to Fauci who refused to endorse the drug or make it known that the drug was showing good results. He even made a statement that there was no data to support the results of the drug and it could be dangerous.
Two years later, after 17,000 AIDS patients had died of pneumonia, bactrim was finally given credit for saving lives. It's still used as a treatment today. When a situation is dire. When doctors are reporting good results. When thousands will die in the time span it will take for clinical studies. Then a drug showing good results should be allowed for use or at least make it known that the drug could be effective.
It's 23 years later and instead of AIDS and Bactrim it's Covid and Hydroxychloroquine. And just like Bactrim, HCQ is a cheap treatment. And Dr. Fauci is standing in the way again. I don't know how many states have done it but in Nevada HCQ cannot be used as an outpatient treatment. You have to be hospitalized to get it. And as Dr. Risch says, by then its mostly to late. What, then, is the alternative to taking HCQ? Nothing. As an outpatient you take nothing and just wait around to see if you get sick enough to be hospitalized.
Everyone in the industry knows that if you want a meeting with Dr. Fauci you don't call his secretary. You call his press agent. And history is repeating itself.
