I guess I don't agree that Trump is encouraging people to buy tablets OTC and start taking them without proper medical supervision ...
Yup, No-one takes any notice of what Trump says or does, even his supporters. He doesn't have to worry about people saying 'If it's good enough for the President, it's good enough for me!'. Trump supporters are much too sensible to do dumb things like that.
That spike in demand for hydroxychloroquine we read about must have been Democrats trying to buy up supplies to stop Trump getting his medication,
I'm talking about the President of the United States actively encouraging people to take a drug. That has nothing to do with what doctors should or should not be allowed to prescribe. Can you explain how this comment addresses what I was talking about?
He admitted he was taking hydroxychloroquine. I guess I don't agree that Trump is encouraging people to buy tablets OTC and start taking them without proper medical supervision including annual Ocular Coherence Tomography with your ophthalmologist. Would you care to guess how often we see Bull's Eye Maculopathy with patients taking hydroxychloroquine?
This decision should be made by the patient and the physician. How is it anyonelse's business?
Well, I appreciate that you agree that no one, including Trump, should be encouraging people to buy those tablets OTC and start using them or pressuring their doctors to prescribe them based only on Trump's recommendation. That is really all we are saying about that too. Can you also agree that it is irresponsible for Trump to encourage everyone else to try it, especially if they are not under daily observation and testing like he and his Whitehouse staff are?
ETA: by the way, how often do you see Bull's Eye Maculopathy with patients taking hydroxychloroquine? I am genuinely curious about that. Can you describe the nature of that malady for us? Is there an effective treatment or cure for it?

So that's the real issue is it not? It's not that hydroxychloroquine is dangerous and it's not that there's no chance it might help fight corona virus. It's that we can't afford to provide it so we don't want people asking for it.

tl;dr <- and we know our favorite racist jackoff won’t read it! - Woman Who Took Hydroxychloroquine For 19 Years To Treat Lupus Still Got COVID-19
- Doc
Not if you post the link I won't read it. You're a prick and I'm putting you on ignore.
Thanks for confirming Doc's accusation and what we all suspect, that you simply won't read any evidence that disconfirms what you are already determined to believe. No wonder you never learn anything new! That is the surest way to avoid ever having to admit you're mistaken about anything. isn't it?
Every one of you would like nothing more than to see DJT dead or disabled. So why this big bruhaha over him taking hydroxychloroquine? Are you worried he won't get corona virus and die? I don't understand why you care one way or the other.
I think it's been about 2 years now (seems right) where I said on the board in full public view that I would never attack you on this board again and I have remained true to my word.
I can think of no reason for you to accuse me of wanting to see Trump or anyone else on the planet, dead. Out of office? Yes. Dead? No.
That you would accuse me of wanting another human being dead is sickening to me, ajax. That is an attack on my character, my integrity, the condition of my heart, and my soul.
Screw it... I'm going to take Lemmie and make Lemmie aid.
There once was a President on gin
Wouldn't touch, don't know where he's been
His failure of heart
Might be a good start
After taking hydroxychloroquine
(Nothing like a prescription drug name to screw with your meter).

Nope. The point was that if Trump says 'I'm taking hydroxychloroquine', as he did, then he knows fine well that many, many of his followers will want to do the same. And the increased demand shows the effect of what he said. So it's clear that when you said:
I guess I don't agree that Trump is encouraging people to buy tablets OTC and start taking them without proper medical supervision ...
... you were incorrect. Trump said 'I'm taking hydroxychloroquine', and lots of people went out and bought some.

Sorry I didn't have you in mind when I said that. That being said, I know you enjoy freely talking and taking shots at DJT amongst like minded company here. But this anti Trump rhetoric and Trump derangement syndrome has crossed the line in my view in many ways.
How are we supposed to react to a comedian decapitating Trump in gory effigy? How would you react if we were to hang Obama in effigy? There's a double standard that to me is unacceptable.
