Politics Trump Owns Stock in Company that produces Hydroxycloroquine

This is awesome news! The more successful treatments the better.

Well Charles Krauthammer has won a Pulitzer. Not exactly what I'd consider a right wing production but he was a conservative.

 

He’s won 12 Associated Press Sports Editors awards, according to his Wikipedia page. No Pulitzers.

 

Thanks I didn't know that.

 

That's still a high death rate of 1.6%.

 

The death rate is from those in serious condition. It isn’t a death rate of infected. This is a pretty good result.

 

probably the first major breakthrough since it's a phase 3 test result....2 out of 125....if I were infected I'd take those odds to survive...my hernia surgery last year had a 1% chance of failure or lifelong discomfort.....the bad news today is they've found recovered patients having relapses and getting infected twice. That's frightening

 

Out of people with severe cases. Without the drug it’s probably more like 50%. If they have to put you on a ventilator, it’s about a 66% death rate.

 

Yep, that’s really promising results.

 

any treatment that offers good results, especially for those severely ill, is great news. Effective treatments that bridge the gap between now and when there's a widely available vaccine are critically important

 

The official death rate is about 5%.
741,000 infected and 39,000 dead.
780,000/39,000 = 0.05

I believe the world wide death rate from Covid19 is somewhere around 3.7%. Trump's hard work has improved our death rate from 3.7% to 5%.

 

What the hell does this response have to do with the mortality rate of this therapeutic treatment? Those treated were in serious condition. Like 30-50% mortality rate without treatment. :smh:

 

Hey, I haven't even had my coffee yet and you expect me to be cognizant of things? This stuff just pops into my pretty little head and out it comes. I promise, I'll make better sense after my coffee.

 

Why does the right wingers never want to talk about this drug anymore?

 

I’m still talking about this drug. Last time I checked, there were articles shared a couple days ago regarding it. Oh, I see. Maybe you not watching the left wing mob not talking about it? Well that’s because they have something else to attack Trump on.

 

I listen to right wing bullshit a couple hours a day. Haven’t heard a peep about it out of Lars Larson, Limbaugh or Levin. They were talking non stop about it a couple weeks ago.

 

Yep, Levin is on the defense of civil liberties now. That will always trump any other subject.

CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we found no evidence that use of hydroxychloroquine, either with or without azithromycin, reduced the risk of mechanical ventilation in patients hospitalized with Covid-19. An association of increased overall mortality was identified in patients treated with hydroxychloroquine alone. These findings highlight the importance of awaiting the results of ongoing prospective, randomized, controlled studies before widespread adoption of these drugs.
