Again, it is quite possible Trump is lying or doesn't even know what medication he is on.
“What do you have to lose? Take it.”
Quote: For those given hydroxychloroquine, there was a 34 percent increase in risk of mortality and a 137 percent increased risk of a serious heart arrhythmias. For those receiving hydroxychloroquine and an antibiotic — the cocktail endorsed by Trump — there was a 45 percent increased risk of death and a 411 percent increased risk of serious heart arrhythmias.

Hmm, a 34-45% increased risk of death and a 137-411% increased risk of potentially fatal arrhythmias with or without azithromycin. I don’t know, bfine, still think the dangers are overblown?
Holy shit! It’s almost like a federal drug agency responsible for the oversight of the safety of drugs with some credibility and credentials issued guidance on how potentially harmful drugs should be prescribed was actually looking out for the welfare of patients. Instead of selling snake oil.
