There are doctors on both sides of this issue but hydroxycholoquine has been around for decades and every drug can have side effects. A great many drugs are used off label. About one in five prescriptions are for off label use. I have heard of doctors taking it as a prophylactic and you only find out how good a doctor is when you run into a problem. Just because Trump uses it, doesn’t mean it isn’t good. If the medical community would just say they do not know instead of changing their mind every ten minutes, perhaps they would be more trustworthy. We cannot keep our country closed FOREVER and the death rate from China flu is smaller than people who get the flu shot! If you want to volunteer, they need 30,000 people for the vaccine trials. If you get it, and do not die from it, people can decide to get it too.
