CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MAY 20, 2020
PRESIDENT TRUMP ANNOUNCED MONDAY HE IS TAKING HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE, A DRUG THAT IS USED TO TREAT LUPUS AND MALARIA. IT HAS NEVER BEEN APPROVED FOR USE IN FIGHTING COVID-19
A DRUG THAT IS RACING TOWARD APPROVAL IS THE ONE HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOUTING. IT’S FROM A U.S. COMPANY CALLED MODERNA. THE COMPANY REPORTED “POSITIVE” RESULTS FOR A CORONAVIRUS VACCINE AND POINTED TO 45 TRIAL PARTICIPANTS, ALL OF WHOM HAD DEVELOPED CORONAVIRUS ANTIBODIES AFTER TAKING THE DRUG.
THAT NEWS SHOT THE DOW JONES AVERAGES UP MORE THAN 900 POINTS ON MONDAY. GALLUP ALSO RELEASED DETAILS OF A NEW POLL THAT FINDS AMERICANS HAPPIER THAN THEY’VE BEEN SINCE THE VIRUS CAUSED THE GOVERNMENT AND CERTAIN SCIENTISTS TO SHUTDOWN THE COUNTRY. THE REASON: THE COUNTRY IS OPENING UP AGAIN AND WE LIKE OUR FREEDOM.
FOX’S NEIL CAVUTO INTERVIEWED A PROMINENT DOCTOR WITH FOUR DECADES OF EXPERIENCE TREATING PATIENTS. DR. ROBERT LEHIDE SAID HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE CAN KILL A PERSON WHO TAKES IT IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER DRUGS, LIKE ZINC AND Z-PACK, WHICH THE PRESIDENT HAS TALKED ABOUT. THE PRESIDENT IS NOT A DOCTOR AND SHOULD NOT BEHAVE LIKE ONE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
