If you have bad experience form doctor would that be consider a quack doctor? IMO there big majority doctors that prey on gullible women, especially older women prescribing 3 or more drugs day. If you have to have day calendar tray fill of pills you have to take maybe you’re doctor quack? I seen this especially in nursing homes. Keep them drugged up like zombie’ s.

FDA commish today...

"“I think we can all agree that the issue of hydroxychloroquine has become politicized,” Hahn said. “And it's a shame because … public health emergencies shouldn't be about politics.”

Hydroxychloroquine returns as wedge between President Trump, health advisers - ABC News

I find it appalling in our country (supposedly not of the third world) to allow such reckless behavior as this to continue.

Calling someone "ignorant" and saying someone is "ignorant of science" are two different things.
Never was it said someone was ignorant.

Also, a 12 old neighbor was going to Africa with his physician Dad and got malaria shots , or medication , he never woke the next morning. This was 10 yrs ago and I don't know if it was hydroxycloroquine.

Hydrochloroquine is an anti inflammatory

Interesting, we can buy tobacco and alcohol which we know are harmful yet we cannot get Hydrochloroquine because we don’t know if it is helpful.

i’m in new york city, the only thing i know is the doctors at elmhurst hospital in queens said publicly( just in an early interview of how coping with being in the epicenter) was taking it and he said if anyone should contract covid it would be him. it helped him.

i think it is more supply and demand issue.
same thing with masks. nyc top hospital telling employees , 35k+, no need for a mask. supply became available and now all masks on -mandatory policy.

I said “if I asked for Hydroxychloroquine would you prescribe it” and she said no.

Hydroxychloroquine has long history with treating malaria with Great results no fatalities. It’s my body, and it’s what I choose to counteract Covid. I was disappointed to hear she would not prescribe this medication.

Have any of you asked your physicians if they would prescribe this, God forbid we get Covid? I would think this would be high on the priority list for us seniors who would like this medications.

Thank you for your input.

It’s your body, but you trust the health care of it to her. If you suffered a heart problem because of the medication, you’d sue for malpractices.

Not the ones who promote demon sex and identify as witch doctors. There are always crackpot docs who want the money they can charge to fools who want the medicine. Listen to the ones who are actually competent and credentialed and follow the research and latest healthcare information.

Skidog 07-30-2020 06:20 AM

There are no eminent doctors saying this. They are all quacks.

Gee!
No clue why a licensed medical doctor would say NO to your request for a drug that may harm you more than help you!!?

Perchance, a visit to a different type of doctor may help!
I really hope you do get help

Many of them show positive results. You keep saying "overwhelming evidence is against the drug" which just shows your ignorance of science.

COVID-19 Treatment - Analysis of 65 global studies showing high effectiveness for early treatment

June 15, 2020 Update: Based on ongoing analysis and emerging scientific data, FDA has revoked the emergency use authorization (EUA) to use hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine to treat COVID-19 in certain hospitalized patients when a clinical trial is unavailable or participation is not feasible. We made this determination based on recent results from a large, randomized clinical trial in hospitalized patients that found these medicines showed no benefit for decreasing the likelihood of death or speeding recovery. This outcome was consistent with other new data, including those showing the suggested dosing for these medicines are unlikely to kill or inhibit the virus that causes COVID-19. As a result, we determined that the legal criteria for the EUA are no longer met. Please refer to the Revocation of the EUA Letter and FAQs on the Revocation of the EUA for Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate and Chloroquine Phosphate for more information.
You don’t trust the CDC, the FDA, the WHO, but you can find statements online that validate your beliefs. Go for it, it’s your life to disregard major studies.
