Bad medicine: Fauci’s HCQ Waterloo

American Thinker: Dr. Anthony Fauci has been hailed in the press as the nation’s top infectious disease expert.  He’s been feted with presidential honors and high praise for his medical acumen.  His policy disagreements with President Trump, supposedly as the voice of “science,” have made him a hero on the left.  Such laurels and the implied power conveyed have led to some weird side-effects — such as his image featured on ladies’ underwear and declarations that he’s the sexiest man alive.

He’s still being posterized on the left with calls to “Thank Dr. Fauci.”  Here’s one:

But it’s about time this idol topples, based on this summary about Fauci’s startlingly bad medicine and bad medical policy on COVID, which has in fact cost thousands of lives.  And yes, he is very specifically to blame. 

Virologist Steven Hatfill, writing in RealClearPolitics, summed up just how disastrous Fauci has been for America’s COVID response, based on Fauci’s suppression of evidence about hydroxychloroquine, the safest and most effective treatment for COVID based on all reputable studies, and the political power he’s used to halt its treatment even as the rest of the world got well from the inexpensive medication’s use.

The “Fauci Strategy” was to keep early infected patients quarantined at home without treatment until they developed a shortness of breath and had to be admitted to a hospital. Then they would they [sic] be given hydroxychloroquine. The Food and Drug Administration cluelessly agreed to this doctrine and it stated in its hydroxychloroquine Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) that “hospitalized patients were likely to have a greater prospect of benefit (compared to ambulatory patients with mild illness).”

In reality just the opposite was true.

  1. A Facebook friend happens to be one of the lead people doing clinical trials for HCQ, here on the Left Coast. She has been talking a lot about its success, while recognizing that it isn’t the only solution. A few days ago she posted that she wrote a prescription for HCQ for an arthritis patient – not a Wuhan virus patient – and the drug store refused to fill it! This is how political HCQ is, that companies and states are banning this decades-old drug for any use. Insanity.

  2. Fauci’s the sock-puppet.
    China and the DNC conspired to destabilize the western (civilized) world’s economies through the use of Wuhan Flu and an extensive propaganda campaign.
    It worked.
    It’s still working.

    Otherwise rational people are quivering in their own shit, pissing their pants, and prostrating themselves before every charlatan quack on TV.
    The number of deaths attributable exclusively to Wuhan Flu are either nonexistent or totally suppressed. There’s a reason for that!

    You don’t have to lie about things that are real – you only have to lie about things from which you’re trying to deceive others.

    Demonrats lie about their agenda because they are well aware that it is pernicious, treasonous, and designed to abort the Constitution – they lie about Wuhan Flu because they know that it’s a hoax designed to support their agenda.
    If the phony twatwaffle Fauci wasn’t there lying, some other maggot would be.

  3. If you can’t get anyone to prescribe HCQ, it is available from India from the same folks that hawk Viagra and other ED drugs.
    Here’s the recipe:

    FYI
    Zelenko’s prescribed cocktail only requires 5 days of treatment:
    · Hydroxychloroquine. 400mg first day and 200mg per day for four days
    · Zinc. 220mg once daily for 5 days
    · Zithromax (to prevent bacterial pneumonia) 500mg daily for 5 days
