Yale University Professor Harvey Risch says all studies that examine the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine on high risk population groups show the drug is “uniformly beneficial” in treating COVID-19.

“What clinicians have found around the world is that a class of people called high-risk people are the ones who need to be treated,” he said. “These are people generally over aged 60 or who have chronic conditions like diabetes, or obesity, or heart disease, high blood pressure or are immuno-compromised. “These are people that need to be treated and the studies that look at them and them only show that hydroxychloroquine cuts the risk of hospitalisation and mortality by at least 50 per cent.

Why do they have to sell us on drug efficacy? Doctors are the ones who prescribe it and decide when it’s needed. Why isn’t we weigh in?

margmopp Bat shit crazy conspiracy theorist. I'll stick with a part time Professor and a guy with a philosophy degree if it's all the same to you

The WHO is 100% communism. Until we get truthful information about viral origins and access to labs from the Chinese Communist Party, we will never have a real vaccine.

Hydroxychloroquine Should Be Available Over The Counter

but the brainwashed masses are waiting for their vaccine like the obedient inert simpletons they are

A continued ban on this can only mean Dan does not want the state to recover.

Landlords in Victoria are being left ‘high and dry’ | Sky News AustraliaPresident of the Real Estate Institute of Victoria Leah Calnan says the Victorian government is not supporting landlords as much as tenants after the rental hike and eviction moratorium was extended until March 28 next year.\n\n“There needs to be a real balancing of position so that landlords are equally supported as tenants are being at the moment,” Ms Calnan said.\n\n“Landlords are getting very little support from government.\n\n“It leaves landlords high and dry, we’ve got examples of tenants that haven’t paid rent since April this year.\n\n“I want to acknowledge that we understand tenants are doing it hard … but there’s equally the same number of landlords doing it hard.”\n This a disaster and where are the class action lawyers to sue this negligent government. Myself and my parents have worked generations to own property and it is being devalued by Dan and his clowns so as to manage a virus which is under control. I haven’t recieved any rent payment for 3 months from the tenant and they continue to refuse and tell me they are protected by Dan Andrews 😩. Trying to get them out now. No government support either Since when are landlords responsible for social housing. If you don’t pay rent, out you go. Landlords have bills to be paid too.

Australia's premiers are 'strangling the nation' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny has labelled Australia’s state leaders – save for New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian – as “political cowards” as they continue to stand by their hard borders. \n\n“They’re blocking borders around the country, and locking down hard in Victoria, despite the pain and collateral damage they're creating,” he said. \n\n“This is beyond a joke. \n\n“The nation united in shutting down, the states are all on board for accepting federal funds for JobKeeper and the like, but there is no consensus on opening up and learning to live with the virus. \n\n“This is what has happened to our premiers, they are single minded, obsessed, and they’re strangling the nation”. \n\nMr Kenny likened the nation’s journey out of the coronavirus pandemic to a “perilous” bus trip which attempted to “keep the states on board, following the same difficult route, where mistakes could have disastrous consequences”. \n\n“The Australian coronavirus bus is in for a rocky ride, not everybody is on board, they all want to go in different direction, and the driver's not in total control.” \n\nImage: News Corp Australia GladysB GladysB Do you ever get embarrassed Kenny pretending to be an independent journalist, calling out the ABC for bias, and being the worst type of duffle coat wearing, paid up Tory wind up toy? GladysB On the contrary the strength they’ve demonstrated doing the right thing is admirable. Congrats to those that stood their ground. 👏👏👏GladysIsWeak
