Trump has been taking two unproven drugs, including an antibiotic, to prevent Covid19 for about 10 days

President Donald Trump said on Monday he's been taking hydroxychloroquine for the past week and a half but added he doesn't have the coronavirus.

The president made the shocking announcement at the White House during an event with restaurant workers.

'I'm taking it - hydroxychloroquine. Right now yeah. A couple of weeks ago, started taking it,' he said.

The president repeatedly has touted hydroxychloroquine - used to treat malaria, lupus and other diseases - and the antibiotic azithromycin, often sold under the brand name Zithromax, or as a 'Z-pack,' to be used to treat the coronavirus.

Maybe he has shares in it. Wouldn’t be the first time a rich wanker has promoted his shit for profit.

hmmmmmmmm

Actually, I don't know if he has shares, but President Trump first heard about using the the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine to treat the coronavirus during a call with Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison, according to The New York Times.

Sounds as if he does have an interest, somewhere.  Ellison "has helped arrange a partnership between Oracle, the software company he co-founded, and the federal government to crowdsource that idea by collecting data in real time from doctors trying out those and other unproven drugs on covid-19 patients."

The wealthy don't waste time and money, unless it comes back in multiples.

I’m not sure we would necessarily know who has shares in what, tbh.

We haven't seen Trump's taxes yet, have we? What are the chances we would learn about his interests elsewhere?

....And many many more rich powerful people.

I think he's lying, or people are giving him a placebo.

But who knows.

If it's a placebo, I hope it's a big one, and I hope the people are giving it to him rectally.

I think, not that I’m saying Trump’s right, but the malaria tablet has been used in the Covid19 pandemic.
It’s certainly selling out in France....

I don't know if Trump has shares in any particular drug, but he does have shares in something.

Trump has shares in his reappointment to the Presidency. His great clarion call for people to support him, was the great economy--tho it was probably due to his predecessor.

His absolute fook-up in handling this pandemic has led to a disaster in the economy. Nothing can open, nothing is going…no money is changing hands. We are heading for a certain next Great Depression. Trump stands a snow-ball’s chance in Hell to get reappointed.

Trump has shares in his own future. If his legacy is to be overseer of the Trump viral massacre, and an absolute disastrous economy, he has no future. Any port in a storm...Trump wants people to hold on to hope at least until after November. He would give people ice cream, cookies or a wonder drug, if it generated support for him.

Hopefully he won’t get heart failure.
