Recalled this quote and it seemed particularly apropos right now.
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” -- C.S. Lewis

Trump talked about Hydroxychloroquine, not chloroquine.
-
Hydroxychloroquine is less toxic than chloroquine
-
The 'people died don't us it!' study that just took place used CHLOROQUINE, not Hydroxychloroquine (probably because they had an agenda to prove it didn't work)
-
Hydroxychloroquine has been used for decades, its risk profile is extremely well documented, and when used within that risk and dosing profile is safer than a lot of other drugs (such as several common cholesterol or blood pressure meds) millions take daily.
