I think you missed the first line of the article: "An Arizona man and his wife ingested a fish tank cleaning additive made with the same active ingredient as chloroquine phosphate, which President Trump has referred to as a “game changer.”

He drank fish tank cleaner, he didn't take the actual drug that is prescribed for malaria. Keep twisting, they took chloroquine phosphate which isn't even close

Again, read the first line of the linked article, where it states that the main ingredient of the tank cleaner was the same as chloroquine's.

No I read it and it's a weak attempt to tie it to trump. He can't be responsible for every moron who can't tell the difference between fish tank cleaner and actual medicine. Medicine that's used to treat an illness the man didn't even have

Told you, this is how much these sad sacks hate Trump. They preach science but they won't allow science because it may mean something positive for Trump. They would rather see death and destruction vs prosperity if it means they get the office in 2020.

Going to look really bad when reports come out of NY this week that the drug has been highly effective just as it was in France.

Maybe but it appears from his statements that he wants to prevent a run on this when there are people already using it for other illnesses. Says this was also done after consulting with medical team. Trying to say he wants people to die because of trump feels almost as stretched as the AZ story

To expect any city to spend OVER HALF A BILLION dollars for a problem they do not have...which had never before happened on US soil is stupid. Plain stupid.

Now trying to sneak hundreds of pages of bullcrap laws and funds into a crisis budget law??? HANG EM HIGH.

I have said this for years:

Term limits.
To make any new law, 2 must be deleted.
Term limits.
Abolish lobbying. Its legalized bribery complete buckshot.

Term limits.

I'd also like to add one...

Again, not the same. So why not ban fish tank cleaner? Instead he bans the actual drug made by drug manufacturers that are closely watched and mandated.

The door was opened when Trump opened his dumba$$ mouth and gave an opinion on a drug that hadn't been tested yet. The rest of the stupidity is on the elderly couple who listened to Trump and then drank tank cleaner.

He spoke about the medicine to treat an illness not tank cleaner to prevent one they don't have

So again, why not ban fish tank cleaner? Also, don't you think just maybe the President has information days ahead of everyone else? Early returns on this drug look to be a game changer.

My tracking of actual daily new COVID-19 cases in U.S. and projections.
3/1 = 7
3/5 = 63
3/10 = 290
3/15 = 737
3/18 = 2848
3/19 = 4530
3/20 = 5594 (5522 median predicted)
3/21 = 4824 (6771 median predicted)
3/22 = 9359 (9650 median predicted)
3/23 = 10168 (11,800 median predicted)
3/24 = 11075 (12,800 median predicted)

Coronavirus Update (Live): 436,481 Cases and 19,643 Deaths from COVID-19 Virus Outbreak - Worldometer

Predicted New Case Ranges ran on 3/19

3/25 23,600 - 28,800

Predicted new Case Ranges Today

3/25 14,200 - 17,400
3/26 19,400 - 23,800
3/27 26,000 - 31,800 (should be falling below the average 1.33 transmission rate seen globally)
3/28 34,000 - 41,500
3/29 43,400 - 53,100
3/30 54,000 - 66,000
3/31 66,000 - 80,000 (transmission rate here would be about 1.2)

Again, we are actually bending the curve, even with the caveat of testing. Especially since a huge percentage of our testing is being conducted in a known hot spot in NYC. Since this is a very key point in our response, I provide my one week projections for comparison as we go along. If we can really flatten the curve, then those 3/31 numbers will be way too high.

Even if we can stay on the current glide path, we will be degrading the number of cases in two weeks, but we will have a very large number of cases to deal with and continuing hot spots.

A key factor is testing availability, and that will need to be watched to see if testing can keep up if the numbers of new cases.

Testing data is being kept by The COVID Tracking Project

As of now:
Positive
53,192
Negative
299,928
Pos + Neg
353,120

Stay safe out there.

I am not on any side of "the panic." I just expect my President not to say stupid things.

What did he say that was stupid? He said the drug was very promising and could be a game changer, pence echoed that yesterday and the Surgeon General says we've turned the corner in testing. Why is it you guys get so bent out of shape with positive things?

Are you really that simple? In a health crisis, the President should not tout any specific drug until it is tested. He should say we are testing drugs that could be promising. No one in their right mind would specifically name a possible cure except for a dumba$$ trying to look like he's in control of a situation.
