The uproar has been hilarious. Media personalities as varied as Neil Cavuto (who used to pass for sane and lucid before Trump broke him) to Joe Scarborough have all proclaimed that one of the most widely prescribed anti-virals in the world will kill you. I don’t fully understand the media hysteria over this drug. It is safe and effective against malaria and thousands of doctors are using it to treat Wuhan virus victims. It either works or it doesn’t. The fact that no one has “approved” it for use is just so much horse sh**. Doctors prescribe drugs for indications for which the drug has never been approved all the time, it is called ‘off label’ use.
Suffice it to say a lot really stupid and pig ignorant stuff has been said on the subject, but it had mostly died down until Leeeeeeeeroy Jenkins, sorry, I mean Joe Biden waded in. The forum was a Yahoo Town Hall (wtf? those actually exist? people watch them?) with celebrity chef and anti-hunger activist Jose Andres (wha…, oh, well, at least he wasn’t lolling naked in a bathtub full of Cheerios, so there is that).

It’s like saying maybe if you inject Clorox into your blood it may cure you. C’mon, man! What is he doing? What in God’s name is he doing?
