The tragic debate over using Hydroxychloroquine as an inexpensive, safe, and effective cure for the coronavirus is costing the lives of thousands of Americans, over ten million Americans their jobs, and trillions of dollars out of our 401Ks and pensions. It is a perfect example of allowing bureaucracy and protocol to “trump” facts, logic, and common sense.
Multiple tests in France, New York, and China have shown that the combination of Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin dramatically and swiftly cures coronavirus. Governor Cuomo has accepted 10,000 doses of Hydroxychloroquine from President Trump to help treat the people of New York and Dr. Zelenko in New York has reported treating 699 patients tested positive for coronavirus with Hydroxychloroquine and all of them recovered and only four had to be hospitalized.
Those are great results! In a test in France, every patient treated with those two medicines recovered from coronavirus in 3-6 days! In a global poll of 6,277 doctors from around the world by Sermo, Hydroxychloroquine was rated #1 for treating coronavirus and Azithromycin was rated #2. Yet both meds are being attacked by Democrats, medical bureaucrats, and many in the liberal news media. Why?
Despite all this good news and hard facts about Hydroxychloroquine, these medical bureaucrats, Democrats, and much of the liberal news media are relentlessly attacking Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin as unsafe and/or unproven. Based on that resistance to these effective medicines, Americans are needlessly dying and our economy is being crushed.
Why? Because President Trump endorsed these two meds and because there are not lengthy bureaucratic tests to confirm what we now know to be true. Many liberal news media sources like “Dr.” Wolf Blitzer of CNN claim that Hydroxychloroquine is unsafe. That aroused the anger of medical experts who regularly use Hydroxychloroquine to treat their patients. Hydroxychloroquine has been used for decades to treat lupus patients and Dr. Taylor Wallace who is a famous rheumatologist in America said that “Hydroxychloroquine is a very safe drug” and it has been given to tens of millions of people around the world.
He should know since over 300,000 Americans have been prescribed Hydroxychloroquine to treat their lupus. He went further when he said “In 42 years of practice, no patient of mine has been hospitalized for complications from Hydroxychloroquine."
My own doctor told me that he has had five patients who were sick and tested positive for coronavirus. He immediately prescribed Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin and they were fully recovered in 12 hours or less. He told me that he would absolutely recommend those meds should I get coronavirus.
Why is this debate tragic? Based on the hard data, Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin are effective, safe, and inexpensive solutions to this coronavirus tragedy. Instead of isolating our entire country and economy which has cost over ten million Americans their jobs and taken trillions of dollars out of our economy, we could simply let everybody go back to work and treat anybody unlucky enough to catch the coronavirus with these two medicines and get them back to work in a week or less.
On top of that, we would be quickly killing the coronavirus by creating “herd immunity." That means that so many Americans would have immunity the disease simply couldn’t spread anymore. There are only two ways to kill a virus like this. One is with a vaccine and the other is with “herd immunity." Sadly, a coronavirus vaccine won’t be ready for 12-18 months. Does any rational American believe that we can shut down our country for 12-18 months? Of course not.
We are blessed to have a safe, effective, and inexpensive solution to this coronavirus tragedy which is the combination of Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin. Now the question is do we have the common sense to use that simple solution or will we allow the medical bureaucracy, Democrats, and the liberal news media to rule and ruin our lives and our economy?
Just like the 2020 elections, this coronavirus tragedy is an IQ test to see if the American people still deserve our great republic and the greatest economy in the world. If we allow the libs to rule, it will be a perfect example of the wisdom of John Adams when he said “There hasn’t been a democracy yet that hasn’t committed suicide."
Not using Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin to defeat the coronavirus and instead allow our economy to continue to be shut down is indeed suicide.
