From one New York story: The feds have given the state 70,000 doses of
hydroxychloroquine, 10,000 doses of zithromax and 750,000 doses of chloroquine.
Testing will kick off Tuesday, Cuomo said. “The president is optimistic about
these drugs and we are all optimistic that it could work,” the governor said at
a press conference. “I’ve spoken with a number of health officials and there is
a good basis to believe that they could work” (Daily News).
A Florida restaurant owner
said he almost died before hydroxychloroquine saved his life (NY Post).
Kevin McCullough explains the
studies have proven hydroxychloroquine works, and it is “a cheap,
inexpensive-to-produce, readily available anti-viral that was created in 1934,
used widely in 1945, and known to be effective against viruses since the 1970s”
(Townhall).
From the Wall Street Journal:
A
flash of potential good news from the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic:
A treatment is showing promise. Doctors in France, South Korea and the U.S. are
using an antimalarial drug known as hydroxychloroquine with success. We are
physicians treating patients with Covid-19, and the therapy appears to be
making a difference. It isn’t a silver bullet, but if deployed quickly and
strategically the drug could potentially help bend the pandemic’s “hockey
stick” curve (WSJ).

have gotten better in other places around the world, a possible blueprint for
the U.S. (New Yorker).
