FDA Must Approve
Hydroxychloroquine Now

Original Article

Posted By: Magnante, 3/22/2020 8:29:18 AM

You are being lied to about the drugs that heal COVID19. America's FDA, and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, are dragging their feet on approving a drug that provides very strong positive effect on COVID19. (snip) Fauci is taking the position that he and the US government should not approve Hydroxychloroquine because it might not be safe and might not be effective, based on his smear of high-quality science as mere anecdote.

Comments:

Fauci is absolutely wrong to call the evidence "anecdotal." Other nations have adopted the drug he is delaying, to excellent effect.

Fauci is a Hillary loving Democrat bureaucrat who is 79 years old and should have retired a decade ago. If President Trump keeps relying on his "advice" and that of the FDA - we are all screwed, the economy ruined and no second term for Trump. So next year when there is another strain of some flu or virus coming from China, we all locked down again? Europe survived the Black Death and this is not the plague.

The question I have for Dr. Anthony Fauci is...So what? So what if it's only anecdotal evidence. The stuff is well-known, any side effects well-documented, and the Government has whipped people into a frenzy that is evidenced by such as the run on TP, the hoarding of canned goods, and the closing or severe curtailment of businesses...despite few cases of actual COVID-19. ("Infections" does not mean one is sick. See Tom Hanks or Prince Albert for how the numbers are misleading.) The use of hydroxychloroquine should simply and immediately be allowed if not approved for COVID-19 prevention and/or treatment.

Not true! The evidence that plaquenil and chloroquine benefit patients is no more than suggestive. We can complete several blinded randomized trial in about a week. Doctors are perfectly free to prescribe these drugs without FDA approval in the interim if they chose. There are thousands of analogues of these drugs that may be far more effective. Let’s wait for proof before making idiots of ourselves!

Watching this guy's reaction yesterday to President Trump's use of the phrase " Deep State Department" is all I needed to know about his agenda . Looks and sounds like a cross between Robert Reich and Professor Irwin Cory. Knowing that he admires Hillary Clinton is all we need to know about this 'man'.

Yes, I remember when retuxamimb was the greatest cure for advanced breast cancer ever. So much so, that it was pushed as standard of care treatmemt. Congress made it Federal law that insurance companies had to pay for it in breast cancer treatment (still a law). ANd when randomize studies came out, guess what, it killed more women and than those not taking it. The FDA even reversed its approval for breast cancer. For generations medicine has tried to find that one miricle drug that will blunt the sepsis mechanism and lead to improved survivial. Some efforts did no good at all. Some made things worse and killed more people than the disease itself. The experience in NOLA with this combination of drugs for Covid-Insane hasn't lived up to the hype from this one anecdotal study in France. If one wants to be part of an experiemental protocol with this combination, fine, go for it. But to say this is a standard of cae without any knowledge of its effectiveness, side effects, and proven benefits is cavalier.

I want this message to go to Dr. Anthony Fauci. I have been calling him Antonio so I apologize. Americans are resilient and we aren't going collapse and fall like you, the media, Democrats, and Never Trumpers want us to. Our foundation is in God and he is bigger than any of you. We know what you are trying to do. Approve it. You had no problem during the H1N1 and Ebola outbreaks. Read Job again in the Bible. We all know what we can be during prosperous times but we really find out what we are made of during trouble times. President Trump and Vice President Pence are showing us their leadership. My foundation is in God not your gods.

Safety First! What is "safe"? Stay in your house to be "safe"... Stay in your house long enough, you starve to death. What is "safe"? Is safety the most important thing in the universe? Did hundred of thousand of Americans die over 200 years so you could be "safe"? Narcissism is a dangerous thing. Never far away, and easily manipulated by those with hidden motives. "After years of Safety First indoctrination, and a front row seat to it's unintended consequences, “Safety Third,” became a slightly subversive way for my crew and I to remind each other that our safety was in fact, our responsibility, and that no amount of compliance could ever keep us out of danger. Safety, I argued, was not a value to be “ranked,” but rather, a state of mind to be maintained. Thus, “Safety Third” became an hour-long special that stirred up a great deal of conversation around personal responsibility, risk equilibrium, and the unintended consequences of ranking Safety above everything else. " Read it all: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealMikeRowe/posts/3119126308097491 Safety Third! Thanks Mike.

Here is what I think the FDA and Fauci would respond to this argument. The Gautret study was non-randomized and open label. That means that the researchers picked which patients would get the real treatment and which would get the control. History is full of examples of clinical researchers introducing intentional or inadvertent bias in this process to get the results they want especially when the stakes are as high as preventing a pandemic. Although I doubt this happened and the results are reproducible in a true RCT study, it is a matter of principle to scientists that you must prove something using the gold standard of a randomized placebo controlled trial with a statistically significant number of trial subjects before you can call a therapy safe and effective. In the mean time, given the good safety profile of hydroxychloroquine with azithromycin it should be approved by doctors off label under the compassionate use provisions of the law.

Okay, hydroxychloroquine is safe for consumption. So, what would be the worse thing that could happen if given to coronavirus patients? Really, nothing. The only thing that could really happen is put a end to Dr. Fauci 15 minutes of fame. I say it's time to put this man in a closet again where NO ONE can get access to him.

we all should take a collective deep breath here. Dr. Fauci is a lab rat, whose job it is to drag his feet, looking for substantial scientific evidence before giving blanket approval for a particular form of treatment. It would be possible for two separate drugs, each safe by itself, to be dangerous in combination. that happened with a diet drug, phentermine,back in the 1980s,and an anti-depression drug. when combined, the product was dangerous. there is evidence available by identifying those who are taking hydroxochloroquine, like Mrs. Lakerman, for rheumatoid arthritis, and examining their incidence and recovery from Kung Flu. computerization would allow this, along with a change in privacy laws. and the focus could be on NYC pharmacies. As for the Chinese physicians and their treatment modes, it is difficult to trust them, given their government meddling with them.

Looked up side effects :"Taking hydroxychloroquine long-term or at high doses may cause irreversible damage to the retina of your eye. Stop taking this medicine and call your doctor at once if you have trouble focusing, if you see light streaks or flashes in your vision, or if you notice any swelling or color changes in your eyes." No hydroxychloroquine for me. I already have Macular Degeneration with visual symptoms.

The FDA has ruled the pharmaceutical industry with an iron fist for years to the point where they dictate how computer software is written and who has access to data. The end result is exhorbitant profits, enough to spread around to companies like Merck, Phizer, J&J, etc., hospitals, doctors, pharmacies, insurance companies and of course, the tax man. It's hard to break free of a bureaucracy like that because it is in their blood. They claim the profits are justified but just look at their corporate headquarters, gymnasiums, on-site child care, perfectly landscaped grounds, office furnishings, corporate helicopters, CEOs pulling in double-digit millions in salary and perks and you can see nothing but money.

The anti-malarial drugs in question are already approved, and are in fact “old.” There is plenty of data out there on them. Doctors should be able to use them “off label” safely. Let’s see if they really do work.

No question this information is NOT anecdotal, it is a small study, without some of the normal scientific requirements, which limit it's certainty. I think Trump recently got a new law passed called "right to try" experimental drugs. Why can't this be under that system? I'll play devil's advocate here for a bit. The normal standard is a double blind (neither the doc or the patient know which drug is which), random test. This test being referred to was "open-label, non random", so the docs and patients knew that they were getting a new treatment. There is extremely well established proof of placebo effect in non-random, non-blind tests. Tell a patient that he is getting a new miracle drug, and magically, a certain number just get well.....even on sugar pills. The fact that this had 100% good outcomes is helpful in pressing the case that it is a real effect. All that said, the drug has been around for a long time, has been used for chronic disease, is apparently extremely well known to be "generally safe". That at least partially eliminates the biggest boogeyman in testing new drugs, you are, in this case, very unlikely to kill someone with the drug. Next is "does it work"? It seems very reasonable to put some caveats around this and approve it for use in some sort of a "large scale testing" mode, with clear notification of patients that this IS NOT A PROVEN, GUARANTEED SAFE TREATMENT, and that they can choose whether to get it or not, with the risk on them. Require a signed consent. But, get the damned FDA bureaucrats out of the way. It is still entirely possible that this will be proven to be only moderately effective, or even, possibly, ineffective. But it could be very effective and save a bunch of lives. I can tell you that if I get this, I will be lobbying my doc to try it.

#6, #14: I have taken this drug in the past for RA. It is affordable and has been in use for 70 years. Yes, long term use of this drug can, in rare cases, cause eye damage. That is why rheumatologists require baseline vision tests for people taking it long term so they can catch vision changes and stop taking the drug. The damage is not sudden onset. Nowhere have I seen that people will need to take this drug as long term therapy for the China Virus. The “Malaria drug” headline conjures up all kinds of scary images for people and that’s exactly why the press is using that term. Fortunately, this drug is one of the most well researched drugs ever, given its long history. The same cannot always be said for countless other drugs millions of people take every day without a second thought. Common sense must prevail here!

An earlier story explained that President Trump made his fortune by demanding results from his people. He should replace Fauci, who it seems is now nothing more than a bureaucrat, not doing much actual work in the field. Foot-dragging and bureaucratic process has it's (limited) place, but right now we need more action! We need fresh blood in all our agencies.

With patient approval, give it to people with serious symptoms and also to those with emerging symptoms. See what happens. The false response that some placebo's cause for certain conditions is probably not much of an issue for a viral infection. Say it only works for on 50% of the people who get it. Isn't that pretty good? It doesn't mean that other medications can't continue to be tested or developed. If we COULD have an immediate, highly effective, low complication, low cost, solution for this virus, isn't it worth trying it? You don't even need FDA "approval" just acceptance that the drug is safe for people testing positive for the Chinese virus with some known side effects and with effectiveness still under evaluation. Think of it like this. A man has fallen through the ice on a lake. All you have is a ball of heavy twine. You're not sure the twine is strong enough to pull the guy out. A friend runs back to get a rope but it will be 15 minutes before he gets back and the guy will likely have drowned by then. Do you not use the twine because it might not work or do you give it a try? Duh! Bureaucrats would let the guy drown because the twine is not rated for such rescue work.

#14... about blindness with hydroxycholorquine. I'm an optometrist and we follow patients yearly or more frequently for ocular side effects of hydroxy (Plaquenil). It takes years of unattended use of Plaquenil to cause retinal toxicity. Taking it for several weeks or months will not cause retinal toxicity.. and if you really already have macular degeneration and have lost central vision.. you have nothing more to lose... For me... given the choice of painful death or loss of central vision, I'd take loss of central vision before I would die.

Quite a rant. Yes, Fauci should have said "investigational" instead of "anecdotal", and lost some crredibility as a result. But if you read the Belgian guidelines, they only want it to be used on patients who have been hospitalized already. Which is a little late if the problem is lack of hospital beds (although obviously reduction in length of stay, not to mention mortality, would be a very good thing). Anyway, with all that's happening, if the drug really works as hoped, we'll know very quickly. And you can bet that DJT will steamroller any FDA foot-dragging.

Having sold Plaquenil (and chlorquine) in a past life, the major side effect is macular degeneration. The labeling on the product clearly states that patients should be tested for this at the time they start taking the drug and at least annually. Of course, that's for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis, a chronic condition. Probably would be a good idea to have an eye test anyway to rule out any pre-existing condition, but as I understand it, the use of this drug and the arthrimoax (antibiotic) is a short term issue, only a few days or weeks of treatment. Both those drugs are anti-malarial. Their RA effects were found when missionaries, sent to Africa and other areas with the drug, that had RA felt a relief of their RA. When the missionaries returned home and stopped the anti-malarial drugs, their symptoms returned. When they resumed taking the drugs, the symptoms were lessened.

The FDA needs to be abolished. It's been corrupt to the hilt for decades, as Congress-critters' use it for the personal "ATM" with 'insider trading' bonuses. The FDA does nothing but slow down deployment of much needed drugs. But here's the main reason for shutting it down: "FDA Approval" does NOT eliminate remove the threat that a drug manufacturer can be sued. If having FDA Approval could indemnify from lawsuits then the FDA would add value, but it doesn't. Bottom line is that "big-Pharma" has a much higher exposure to lawsuits in today's litigious environment which keeps them on the straight and narrow. Let the FDA go after the snake-oil hucksters, but leave the major drug companies alone to quickly churn out new medicines in times of crisis.

Meghan Markle, it seems, isn't much of a scholar.

There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says.

The relentless campaign to demonize supporters of President Trump entered the realm of self-parody this past week, with warnings that the US Capitol and democracy itself were in danger on March 4 because QAnon saw that date as the real inauguration day. It was all balderdash, a PsyOp aimed at delegitimizing support for Trump or questioning the integrity of the presidential election. Even the Washington Post admitted there was nothing to it, calling the reports a “mirage.” (snip) Al Green, a Democrat from the Houston area, [undertook] a stunt of surpassing stupidity that was taken with deadpan seriousness by much of the media.
The U.S. Economy Is Rigged 13 replies

Though the populist tide seems to have ebbed, it will rise again, and soon. The problem that ignited populist sentiment in the first place, whether on the left or the right, remains: the country’s economic and financial system has failed much of the population and is rigged to the benefit of a government-business elite. Resistance to this inequity elevated Trump and pulled the Democratic Party to the left and will continue to roil American politics until things change. The economy’s “rigging” has developed gradually over time and often from the best of intentions.

No, conference goers didn't gather to spread conspiracy theories. No, they didn't bow down to a golden statue of Trump. And no, the stage wasn't designed to pay homage to Nazi symbology. Fascism, a form of big government, is hated among conservatives. Outsiders in the mainstream media really piled on the hate. "There will be no policy debates," claimed an MSNBC opinion columnist. That's false. The truth, it seems, was of no value in reporting on this year's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Among speeches from high-profile Republicans were dozens of panels and debates on a broad spectrum of policy issues — which was the purpose of the gathering.

On Wednesday, New York’s Governor Andrew Cuomo issued a teary apology during which he said that he didn’t do anything he was alleged to have done but, if he did in fact do those things, he had no idea that they were bad things. On Thursday, Charlotte Bennett, a 25-year-old former health policy adviser to Gov. Cuomo, told CBS that Andrew Cuomo explicitly propositioned her during an office meeting, in addition to crude, personal questions about her sex life. Cuomo’s going to have a hard time explaining that he didn’t know he’s not supposed to proposition employees almost four decades younger than he is.

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) appears to have started to shift his views on the filibuster with remarks that he made on two news shows on Sunday morning.The shift from Manchin comes after he has repeatedly stated that he would not vote to end the filibuster, despite pressure from the far-Left. During the interviews on Sunday, Manchin repeatedly claimed that he was not open to ending the filibuster because he did not want to strip the minority party of their power in the Senate, but signaled that he was open to changing it.Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Manchin if he would consider “reforming the filibuster” if “Republicans

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

President Biden on Monday seemed to forget Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s name at a White House event—calling the Pentagon chief “the guy who runs that outfit over there.” Biden was announcing the nomination of two female generals to lead US military combatant commands. “And I want to thank the sec—the, the, ah former general. I keep calling him general, but my, my—the guy who runs that outfit over there,” Biden said.(Snip) Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, “Secretary Austin,” while appearing to read from a teleprompter.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

Rep. Steve Cohen vowed to renew the push to remove former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover’s name from the bureau’s downtown Washington headquarters, according to an interview released Monday. Appearing on Yahoo! News’ Skullduggery podcast, the Tennessee Democrat said the effort is getting a fresh look after the release of a new movie highlighting the FBI’s secret program to discredit civil rights activists. The Washington Times in 2019 first reported Democrats’ bid to strip the longtime FBI director’s name from the bureau’s headquarters. Mr. Cohen said the impetus to revive the bid is the new movie, “Judas and the Black Messiah.” The movie details

“There must have been a moment, at the beginning, when we could have said –-no. But somehow we missed it.” Tom Stoppard The millions of Americans who were paying attention throughout the 2020 election campaign all became painfully aware of the fact that Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities were slipping and slipping fast. His wife, as the person closest to him, should have been the one to call the campaign quits in order to reduce stress on the man. Instead, apparently so anxious to become the First Lady by any means necessary, Mrs. Biden continued to push her failing husband’s campaign forward as if he were mentally qualified.
