    The elderly especially could get immunocompromised and have a higher risk of cardiac adverse effects by self medicating. Wish this idiot would let the experts talk.

    Yes that's what it is. I'm starting my volunteer job tmrw at a drive through testing facility. We will be testing healthcare workers by the thousands. I don't want a drug to work smh.. . I work in pharma research. I understand this shit better than this idiot you idolize and realize the dangers of what he says.

    Perhaps, but we'll need a clinical trial to prove that it's safe.

    Perhaps they could do the trial at Cornell, after the current one is finished.

    Trump says our shut down could be over by early next week and this will just go away.

    Lets play, did a toddler or the President say it. Today's quote is:

    "Certainly this is going to be bad ... we’re trying to make it much much less bad."

    Do not self medicate.

    Do not listen to Trump.

    Listen to the experts.

    This is gutting. :(

    Man who tried to treat himself with hydroxychloroquine DIES: Couple ate fish tank cleaner thinking it was the malaria drug that Trump is touting as a miracle coronavirus remedy
    • The couple, both in their 60s, were hospitalized after ingesting chloroquine phosphate, an additive often used at aquariums to clean fish tanks
    • The man died and his wife was left in critical condition as a result
    • It's believed that they confused the chemical with hydroxychloroquine, an antimalaria drug that's shown promising results in treating coronavirus patients
    • Banner Health, a non-profit hospital system based in Arizona, issued a statement about the shocking case on Monday
    • In the statement experts warned the public against the use of inappropriate medications and household products to prevent or treat COVID-19
    • President Trump drummed up excitement over hydroxychloroquine when he called the drug a 'game changer' last week
    • But the drug has not yet been proven as effective in treating coronavirus

    I even cleared it with my doctor before taking my only two medications that he did not prescribe, melatonin and Tylenol. My wife won't even take analgesics. She takes three garden variety prescription meds prescribed by her doctor, simvastatin, Vitamin D and losartan for blood pressure.
    We heed the advice of experts such as medical doctors.

    Today was the day Italy saw the curve finally flattening. They had their second day with fewer new cases than the day before and it's day 12 of their lockdown. But the fatalities still increased because of the latency effect.

    We need to be head of Italy here. The lockdowns happening around the country are encouraging. Trump hinting at re-opening stuff after this week... not so much. Flatten the shit out of this-- take another month if you have to.

    I made one small mistake, I failed to mention that we didn't follow the advice of our very good financial advisor and got our investments completely out of the stock market. We did this on Thursday on hope it was finalized by today beccause the Dow went down almost 600 points today. I expect the Dow to fall a lot further before this is over. When they find a vaccine for this shit then I expect the Dow to rise and rise fast.
