Coronavirus - are we all doomed?

This is about an hour ago at a local market, it's back to the reloading bench.

Just to be on the safe side, I suggest getting at least one of each. Might as well have enough to last as long as the TP lasts.
 
Oh, if only I had a cooperative liver. But the only Jack Daniels product I can have is their barbecue sauce.
 
Finally ran across the underlying (fake news) article: " CDC warns against using form of chloroquine that killed man, sickened his wife". It also points to the stupidity of many people, something the medical profession can't protect people from.

This article is essentially a piece of anti-Trump propaganda. The NBC News article refers the form of chloroquine taken by the couple as a form of "fish food" purposely neglecting that its intended use is to clean aquariums. The New York Post wrote: "The cleaning agent ingested by the couple has the same active ingredient as the anti-malaria medicine chloroquine but is formulated differently." It is unfortunate that NBC News and other media outlets purposely distort facts as a means of inciting anti-Trump hysteria. NBC News, if they had any credibility, would have cautioned the public in this article not to be stupid by "self-medicating" with a toxic product.

In a similar outbreak of stupidity were people failed to distinguish an ethical product from a poison: Iran confronts deadly alcohol crisis in midst of dealing with coronavirus. ""But later we realized from their families and friends that they were mostly alcohol users who would get their alcohol from bootleggers, but this time what they had been handed over was a methanol-based drink, not their usual booze, named araq, mixed with water and ethanol," he added". (emphasis added) At least ABC News did not attempt to spin it as an anti-Trump article.

From what I've read it is a fish medicine only available by vet prescription. It was available without prescription back in the 70's - 80's. It treated several conditions affecting salt water fish. I believe a side effect was that it killed algea in the tank also.

The connection to Trump was that the woman in an audio interview said they took it only because they kept hearing him say it was a cure or preventitive for the virus. Clearly the fish are smarter than the couple.

What a desperate attempt to defend Trump's idiocy by pointing out the article incorrectly referred to the aquarium cleaner as fish food.

The important fact is that Trump went public on the idea that chloroquine was virtually a cure for Covid. Drinking aquarium cleaner because it had the same word in the active ingredient name demonstrates the stupidity and gullibility of those who respect Trump's advice.

Not surprising really as it has been established that people of low intelligence overwhelmingly vote Republican.
 
Trump never said that, it's your misguided interpretation of what your fake news lead you to believe.
 
He never said it was a cure, but you never did believe in science did you Greg.

Seems that you are irrationally desperate to foster an anti-Trump narrative. What "facts" did you imagine to conclude that the couple were rabid Trump supporters and were somehow hypnotized by his words? Please provide documentation " that people of low intelligence overwhelmingly vote Republican." That is a Democratic trope to demonstrate their supposed superiority over the common man; only we Democrats are intelligent, you shall obey us - everyone else is a moron.

No, President Trump Did Not Make Anyone Ingest Fish Tank Cleaner. "I’m afraid that this is the stuff of idiocracy — the equivalent of a person seeing a bucket of chlorine next to her swimming pool and drinking it because the letters on the outside are arranged in a similar order to the word “chloroquine.” And the idea that the president is to blame for this is . . . well, it’s simply incomprehensible to me."
 
Woman in ICU: "Trump kept saying it was basically pretty much a cure."

Sorry that is Darwinism and it's a poor sample of your argument. Wouldn't there be hundreds? Not to mention lots of doctors are using hydroxychloroquine as a prophylactic in their own personal care.

Nobody should be taking aquarium cleaner.
