I'd be careful suggesting that HCQ causes no problems. My mom took it for an autoimmune issue years ago and began to go blind in one eye as a result. I'm thinking she was probably an extreme responder, as most medications tend to effect her more than the avg. person.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge advocate for the use of HCQ for autoimmune issues & COVID19 because it appears to work in most cases, at least that I'm aware of. I would just say that it is generally safe when used carefully and conservatively. Being totally black & white about it kind of undermines the legitimacy of an otherwise true statement.
I hear you.
But compared to untested vaccines that is injected into your blood a 60+ year old medication is relatively safe.
For me personally, I prefer sunlight, sleep, exercise and good nutrition as my first line of defense.
I agree with you 100% on this. I would likely recommend my mom take it again if she were to get a bad case of COVID. I'd just be adamant that they titrate the dosage gradually to avoid issues. Shit, I'd probably opt for HCQ over any vaccine that comes out.
Did your mom get a malaria?!?
"average people" don't concern themselves with the 0.00001% of edge cases in casual conversation.
That's what we're having here - casual conversation. If you're going to mandate that every statement include an uncountable number of caveats to cover every potential edge case, then nobody will be able to complete a sentence without collapsing from hypoxia.
You're being rather dickish for "casual conversation."
Any reasonable person would likely want to know what the risks are before taking a medication. To suggest that there are none, or that they somehow only impact .0001% of those that take HCQ is just asinine. When people present HCQ like it is without risks it immediately makes them look misinformed and calls into question their credibility on the matter. That's the case with a massive number of medications, I'm not suggesting anything controversial here.
HCQ is not without risks, and should not be treated that way. THAT SAID, I still advocate for its use in testing COVID19 and autoimmune issues. It works. I think I'm being pretty reasonable here, so chill with the mean girls shit.
Contact Scott Adams. He has a news agency that will pay $1M for a story like that, he says.
You're about as tolerant as the folks on r/politics
Your comment doesn't make any sense.
