Stop Taking Hydroxychloroquine

Posted by

Recently I blogged about people taking a drug called Hydroxychloroquine in hopes that this would either prevent or treat COVID-19. As you will recall, this plan was recklessly pushed by President Trump, who asked people what they had to lose in taking the medication. We now have a better idea of what was at stake.

Fatal Side Effects

A  New York Times article reported on a study of Hydroxychloroquine on patients who had COVID-19.  The results were not good. Not only did the drug not treat COVID-19, but more people also died on the drug than those who did not receive it.

Pause and think about that for a moment. President Trump asked Americans what they had to lose taking a powerful medication that has never been shown to have any anti-viral effects. For some of those Americans, what they had to lose was the most precious thing they ever had–their lives. Now we learn that President Trump forced a prominent scientist out of his job for questioning the efficacy of Hydroxychloroquine.

Damn The Dead, Full Speed Ahead!

Please Don’t Take It

Please, don’t take Hydroxychloroquine in hopes of treating or prevent COVID-19. Remember, too, that many Americans who need this drug to treat terrible autoimmune disorders are going without due to the misplaced use of Hydroxychloroquine.

Trust The Best Minds, Not The Worst

This, Too, Shall Pass

A vaccine or an effective treatment for COVID-19 is coming. The smartest people in the world are working on this non-stop. Wait for the fruits of their labors and avoid the advice of charlatans and quacks. For now, stay indoors and be safe. Unlike Hydroxychloroquine, that will help against the spread of the pandemic.

About The Author

Since 1992, I have been helping the people of Southern Arizona get the benefits they are due. Before devoting all my efforts to assisting people with Social Security disability claims, I also handled such complex lawsuits as medical malpractice and products liability. I brought to my Social Security cases all the skills and attention to detail that I developed in the courtroom. I approach each Social Security disability case as if it were a million-dollar lawsuit. For the people trying to get Social Security benefits, their claim is every bit as important. Because I have personally handled so many Social Security cases, I have refined the skills I need to win your case for you. I have helped people win cases for every kind of ailment from arthritis to valley fever. At present, I am focused on helping those persons with neurological and orthopedic disorders. Because claims for people over age fifty bring additional complications, I particularly seek out those cases to work on. I regularly write about back and spine conditions on my blog. I actively seek out the latest information about orthopedic and neurological disorders to ensure I can represent my clients as effectively as possible. Because of my current focus, I regret that I am not able to take any cases for mental disorders. If you are over age fifty and suffer from any orthopedic or neurological disorder, please contact me at once.
