Attention Trump: Woman who took hydroxychloroquine for 19 years still got COVID-19
D’oh.
Despite the numerous, dangerous side effects caused by the anti-malaria medicine hydroxychloroquine … and the fact that it’s NOT recommended to treat coronavirus… and the heartbreaking fact that it now will be harder to come by for patients WHO ACTUALLY NEED IT… Donald Trump recently announced to the world that he is, in fact, taking hydroxychloroquine to ward off coronavirus. This is… not good, to say the least.
Trump fans are gobbling up hydroxychloroquine, and even trying to make the drug themselves with “homemade” recipes. One Trump fan claims the drug has made his face “plush and vibrant.” https://t.co/LebpOydcTe

And the kicker? A woman has revealed that, although she has taken hydroxychloroquine for nearly TWENTY YEARS for lupus, she still got COVID-19!

“I’m like, ‘How can I be sick? How?They were like, ‘Well, nobody’s ever said that was the cure or that was going to keep you safe’ and it definitely did not.”💥https://t.co/PMktzTCfvE

Oh.
“You’re not safe taking that medication at all. (Hydroxychloroquine) is not going to prevent anything. You can still get coronavirus. It kind of makes me mad that (Trump) thinks it’s going to do that and is telling the whole world it’s going to do that.”https://t.co/KEDQL36a93

He’s quite the role model.
How far down the path of chasing Unicorns and Tooth Fairies will it take for people to awaken to Republican lies?
Enough of this Republican madness! https://t.co/4DB5kbyb1G
