The 2020 Presidential Election

[Hempy McNoodle]

Hempy, That's the way it is in third world countries.

You don't need no stinkin' prescription.

Just go to the pharmacy and get what you want. When you get your stuff then theres is a good chance it's counterfeit. Mexico is like that.
You can even mail order stuff and have them send it here.

I think it has more to do with Malaria being one of the leading causes of death in India. It's not like all drugs are over the counter in India. They are simply being sensible because they have a high level of confidence in the drugs safety. Meanwhile, here in the states, acetaminophen is over the counter and is responsible for very high incidents of death and injury, including organ failure.

Beside, big pharma doesn't want you using it, because it is generic and cheap as hell. Its always about money. Big drug doesn't like people growing weed either. You shoud be required to buy all pham from them, and them alone

As Skynyrd said "You got that right"!!!

Hempy, You said it's over the counter in India. I told you everything is over the counter in India - third world country. It doesn't matter if they are taking a drug for malaria or cat scratch fever. You just go to the pharmacy and get what you need. They don't do prescriptions in third world countries.

Your initial comment inferred that it was "over the counter in India" because it was so benign. Now you're way off course Hempy.

It's probably because he knows he may need to call upon them again in the near future.

1. India is not a 'third world' country.
2. Many medications are only available with a prescription from a doctor, in India. HCQ is not one of them. It is used widely and safely.

 

[Hempy McNoodle]

Ever heard of Cipro? It is one of the most widely prescribed anti-viral medications in the US. It comes with a 'Black Box' warning. Black box warnings indicate a high risk of severe side effects. A family member was nearly permanently debilitated from Cipro.

Which is more dangerous, Cipro or HCQ? Which one is prescribed more? Is Cipro prescribed for viruses that it wasn't originally approved to treat?

 

[Hammerhead]

I wouldn't take either without proper testing. How stupid does one need to be to administer a medication that can cause harm. There is no reason to take the meds. The Dr for POTUS says its OK to take to prevent Covid-19 when there is no Science that shows it does this. Do you really think Trump didn't force the issue..Trump is a idiot. His disinfectant comment should have proven that .

I'm not onboard with HCQ because Trump touted it. I think I have proven myself to be a huge critic of El Presidente.

I follow and continue to follow the data that is continuing to show HCQ as a viable prophylactic treatment of CV19 when combined with Azithromycin. This is data from other countries, and it is anecdotal. But there are now thousands of instances where it has been used successfully to treat CV19 when it is given at the first onset of symptoms.

It is continuing to show promise around the world, so the NIH finally set up a decent study on it as a pre-hospitalization treatment. Unfortunately we won't have results until much later this year. I'm not sure why they are not going to be releasing data until the end. My tinfoil hat guess is that the pharma companies want it to fail so they can tout some other far more expensive drug in the interim.

Hello all,

Cipro (ciprofloxiacin) is not an anti-viral medication it is a broad spectrum anti-biotic...wrong again Hempy

This antibiotic treats only bacterial infections. It will not work for virus infections (such as common cold, flu). Using any antibiotic when it is not needed can cause it to not work for future infections.

Also, worth noting, the "V.A." study was recently called out by government representatives. The media touted it as a "V.A." study, when in actuality, it was not conducted by the VA at all. It just relied on some VA data. I think it may actually be the flawed and potentially fraudulent Brazillian study which was discussed recently.

It appears you are correct. I stand corrected. My doctor tried to prescribe cipro to me for Lyme (bacterial infection) and she told me it was an antiviral. She must have been mistaking. I also confused it for an anti-viral because I conflated it's use against anthrax, with Ebola virus. That was my mistake. it is not used for ebola.

Thanks for clearing this up.

"Lower Economic" is not a upgrade, it's a nice way of saying "Shithole"

If you're talking Sri Lanka. That's supposed to be pretty nice. Arthur C Clarke lived there.

Anyway, glad to see you've got your nose in the books.

 

[GOT_BUD?]

I've been noticing a trend, and I think it should be brought to the attention of many here.

The art of deception requires distraction. At this point, Trump is the distraction. Everybody is so focused on Trump that everybody is ignoring the truly despicable shit going on.

In all honesty, what the left needs to concern themselves with is not defeating Trump. Their main focus should be on making him impotent. The down ballot vote should be way more important than who sits in the Oval Office. If you take away his power (the Senate), there is nothing he can do that won't end up in the courts if he is unwilling to play ball with the House, "stacked" courts or not.
