  1. HCQ is a useful drug especially in rheumatology. the benefits often outweigh the risks. Find a review paper on its efficacy in covid and we can talk.
  2. here's some further info on the safety of HCQ. Most patients see eye professionals for regular checks ups to ensure catching this debilitating complication: https://eyewiki.aao.org/Hydroxychloroquine_Toxicity#:~:text=The early signs of hydroxychloroquine,and hyperpigmentation surrounding the fovea. You'd expect a doctor to know this stuff...
  3. There is no such thing as a “safe” drug. All have risks. All have potential side effects. That’s why we have prescriptions…. I stopped reading after the 1st study was withdrawn and the second came out of Turkey.
  4. You probably think this is clever as well. It’s not.
  5. He is. From MAGA s who might elect trump again
  6. the word used was "discredit" (perhaps you should watch your own links) and was used by the CNN anchor. No one said "suppress". None of the words used as descriptors in the MAGA articles are close to equivalent to "discredit". But you and they knew that....It's kinda like when a reputable news agency labels a group as terrorists and the fringe sites call the same group "freedom fighters".
  7. No one in this interview said “quash” or “squash “. She was asked about an intention to discredit the lab leak theory. Why wouldn’t there be? Scientists disagree, often. Some are passionate. And why would the director of the cdc need anyone’s permission to publicly dispute it…well, maybe the prez permission but guess who that was.
  8. Re1-4, fauci pointed out that the cdc, not he, made the social distancing guidelines. They were based on the belief, at the time and based on other virus behavior, that Covid was primarily spread by droplets and not aerosol. That was incorrect but science sorted it out in its normal systematic, analytical manner. It took some time as it always does. The best path imo with icu’s filling up and 1000’s dying per day was with an abundance of caution. Certainly Doc felt the urgency given his reasoning for the rush to widely utilize any possible treatment. re #5. See above. He didn’t write the guidelines. That question should be asked of the cdc. I suspect they employ social scientists and economists…
  9. cuz it's the same drug. For rosacea, I think metronidazole is a safer, better drug. Let's say you go to your doc today and tell him you're worried about a heart attack. you have a family history, you're fat and you smoke. And he says "let's put you on a beta blocker". And the smart guy that you are, you ask "what's the evidence for that?". And he says, "there isn't much for primary prevention but tons for secondary prevention (post heart attack). And then you ask "what about statins?". He says , yes tons of data, hundreds of studies". And you say "never mind, I've heard bad things about statins....". the downside was that it didn't work, dummy
  10. So we shoulda tried bleach and perhaps Sevin dust… it kills parasites too….and wait, I thought the whole pandemic was just a charade…
  11. Why would anyone want it to fail? Real clinicians wanted it to work but were obligated to wait and see better data. Yeah doc, data. Science.
  12. Unscientific doc. And it’s not. But you certainly have the chops to outguess 4 of 6 federal agencies. Of course, you believe they’re all part of the conspiracy. What was the goal. To f up China’s economy worse than ours?
  13. Show me the data doc. You seem to have mystical knowledge of Covid’s origins. You r truly special😅
  14. I've heard this is pretty eye opening: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/606/just-what-i-wanted/act-two-1
  15. Stay away from Ten High. It's rot gut. I'm alive and healthy. Lots of docs aren't: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10071333/#:~:text=From March 2020 through December 2021%2C there were 4511 deaths,to 84 years (Table).
  16. Thanks for the advice. I'm deciding the optimal time to start drawing social security. Are you an actuary?
  17. Shocking! Pure blood - wow... I've had 4 total. The last being in 2023 with the updated vax. Doing fine...
  18. you first. I'm happy with my plan and will share but betting you won't
  19. I have. reading is not your forte. I'd dare you to not get polio vax or measels//mumps/rubella as shrunken nuts would be a desired outcome but you'd likely hurt innocents in the process.
  20. Please don't get vaccines...also don't treat any chronic illnesses or risk factors
  21. I"m UTD! why wouldn't I be? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10684792/ Honestly, I think this is a politically motivated study with convincing results. The BMJ article also seems biased with less convincing data linking mortality to vax...
