Trump Pushes Hydroxychloroquine: ‘I’m Trying to Save Lives’
President Donald Trump defended his ongoing push for doctors to prescribe hydroxychloroquine to coronavirus patients on Sunday, despite criticism from the media. CNN’s Jeremy Diamond repeatedly challenged President Trump during the White House press briefing for talking about the drug, despite doctor concerns that there is only anecdotal evidence of it working to fight coronavirus. “Why not just let the science speak for itself? Why are you promoting this drug?” Diamond asked. “I’m trying to save lives,” the president said, noting that the federal government was purchasing the drugs in mass quantities. He admitted that hydroxychloroquine might not work, but he does not want to wait a year for clinical tests. “If it doesn’t work, it’s nothing lost by doing it,” Trump said. “Nothing.” The president answered several questions about hydroxychloroquine but ultimately repeated that it was worth trying. “I don’t want to wait a year and a half to find out, and only CNN would ask that question,” he concluded. “Fake news.” https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/04/05/trump-pushes-hydroxychloroquine-save-lives/

>>8698668 Efficacy of hydroxychloroquine in patients with COVID-19: results of a randomized clinical trial Abstract Aims: Studies have indicated that chloroquine (CQ) shows antagonism against COVID-19 in vitro. However, evidence regarding its effects in patients is limited. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in the treatment of patients with COVID-19. Main methods: From February 4 to February 28, 2020, 62 patients suffering from COVID-19 were diagnosed and admitted to Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University. All participants were randomized in a parallel-group trial, 31 patients were assigned to receive an additional 5-day HCQ (400 mg/d) treatment, Time to clinical recovery (TTCR), clinical characteristics, and radiological results were assessed at baseline and 5 days after treatment to evaluate the effect of HCQ. Key findings: For the 62 COVID-19 patients, 46.8% (29 of 62) were male and 53.2% (33 of 62) were female, the mean age was 44.7 (15.3) years. No difference in the age and sex distribution between the control group and the HCQ group. But for TTCR, the body temperature recovery time and the cough is remission time were significantly shortened in the HCQ treatment group. Besides, a larger proportion of patients with improved pneumonia in the HCQ treatment group (80.6%, 25 of 31) compared with the control group (54.8%, 17 of 31). Notably, all 4 patients progressed to severe illness that occurred in the control group. However, there were 2 patients with mild adverse reactions in the HCQ treatment group. Significance: Among patients with COVID-19, the use of HCQ could significantly shorten TTCR and promote the absorption of pneumonia. "I'm not a doctor, but I have common sense" ~ DJT, POTUS 4/5/20
