Fox News host Laura Ingraham has deleted a tweet touting an unproven coronavirus treatment that a Twitter spokesperson said today ran afoul of its rules against misleading health information.
Ingraham earlier this month tweeted praise for hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malaria drug championed by President Donald Trump as a potential treatment for the virus, despite little evidence to that effect.In the March 20 tweet, Ingraham claimed that the drug was already in use in “many hospitals,” including at Lenox Hill in New York, and was showing “very promising results,” according to a screenshot viewed by POLITICO.
A Twitter spokesperson said earlier today that the company required Ingraham to delete the post for violating its policies. But the company later reversed course, saying Ingraham was not forced to take it down.they’re seeing improvement in the coronavirus pandemic.
She’s just spitting out the trump-fox company line
The FDA just approved it to be used. So what’s your point CNN.
Just another example of the mindless leading the mindless..
This happens when people listen to the uninformed vs the medical community.
A R R E S T I N G this scab, seems in order!
She is just another alternate reality psycho. Who cares what she says or thinks?🙃
Idiot!
Wrong
Ingraham: 'I'm not a doctor. I only play one on tv. In real life I'm an idiot.'
'Little evidence.' Does China have direct access to your newsroom?
Isn’t France making that their go to treatment?
The Irony is that the only real FAKE news is Fox. They need to fire her and Hannity and get back to truth and integrity for all Americans!
And guess what? It has now been proven to have worked in many places. Repeatedly. Why are you try8ng to downplay the success?
There is very strong evidence only, check before you write.
Talk about nasty. IngrahamAngle is the poster child for nasty. A trump whor IngrahamAnglemq
She’s a stupid......(fill it in)
Fox News is completely irresponsible throughout the C-19 crisis and the FCC should revoke Murdoch’s license to broadcast. Hannity & co. should be sued for the misinformation they spread to politicize the crisis. foxnews COVID19 CNN HANNITY FCC PICON DumpTrump2020
That must be why the FDA approved it and Dr.’s are prescribing it to patients. Don’t underestimate how low the media in America can go.
The FDA agrees with her!!! Keep digging your hole Politico
You mean besides the evidence of doctors using it?
Little evidence?!?! Are you nuts. Tons of evidence it is successful in curing CV19. You’d be crazy not to use it
But France accepted it after a valid study. The FDA approved it. People were brought back from near death.
Has she ever used evidence to support her opinions
I can’t stand her but it is actually being used with positive results.
She should be Arrested and Permanently thrown off the Air one Man is DEAD, and his wife is in Intensive Care, after Listening to Trump and his Dumb Ass.
Meanwhile, those of us with auto-immune disease have little to no access to the drug. So our symptoms worsen, are risks of infection are greater. Drug companies are giving all they have to the federal government to use against the virus. Should it work? Fantastic. If not?
Current news on this old drug is that it has shown at least some ability to control the virus. Tests in England & here have doctors thinking that it can help in treating some patients. If it helps, why not use it? If the drug can be modified to serve as a vaccine, is that bad?
Hmmmm and she was correct as it’s working extremely well, so wrong again a holes
She didn’t break any rules She is trying to save people dying of Coronavirus If any of you were sentenced to die you will take them so are the people from FDA
That is, little evidence known to POLITICO, as if the Ultra Secret decryption of the Enigma Machines and the Manhattan Project never existed because the media and public never knew of such. There are existing SAPs that will and need NEVER be known to a leaking Congress.
FOX is just Trump’s puppets. They report what Trump likes to hear.
And the results of using this treatment are...?
Sue
Reporters are entertainers. Still, some people listen to what they say. Darwin.
Hope is everything. And its better than nothing.
I believe the real problem with Fox is that people are watching & listening. Come on, there still are reliable, legitimate news operations that are focused on getting the facts right. Stop watching the propaganda channel!!!
Her job is to host a White Power television show that boosts the president’s fragile self esteem. She isn’t on-air to spout “facts” and “evidence.”
Too bad people already know. It's being used in the US with success and around the world.
Kick her off Twitter
Ridiculous, there was evidence from different parts of the world. Although it was not studied for years, there are many small San Leandro miracle stories, of combined with anti bacteria antibiotics.
But if hillary said the answer is honey and tea you would proclaim her the next Jonas Salk
She is dumb as dirt and lives to promote her dear leader.
And she was right, you hack!
If you didn’t see it, she was citing a study done in France and just passed it along. Nothing wrong here.
CREWcrew there has to be some legal issues with Trump et al.
Get this terrorist off the streets.
37000 DEAD And you wanna go with a hunch from a 6 time bankrupt
I looked this up chloroquine actually has some effect yet further studies need to be done to confirmed whether or not it works. So this drug at this is ? regarding its efficacy. Yamiche SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer SenKamalaHarris
Dr Laura! SMH
So what if she killed people. Supporting Trump still more important
Not according to 35 Doctors who put out a statement that is does ...
The FDA just approved it because of its perfect score in saving lives. It appears some section of our Society want lots of dead people as soon as possible.
So why is not in jail ?
Non so blind as those who will not see...but she must still be held accountable
Fox news loves lies and liars
The cultists are shilling hydroxycholoroquine like snake oil because it has been endorsed by their science-hating guru leader without appropriate scientific evidence as a litmus test for loyalty. What pathetic tools!
EatShtTrump She breaks the rules as far as being a decent person. She's a piece of crap.LaurasAMonster
Now the FDA is using it and patients who really need it are going without.
This woman with a mouth like a ripped pocket was spreading fake news.......
Public good she can be forgiven.
Wouldn’t you want hydroxychloroquine if that was the last resort to stay alive?
After buying stocks in it I imagine
rosethornne She is a follower, not a leader.
rosethornne Please report more on this drug
What is your point?
Ok, so Twitter itself is censoring the platform now on whose guidelines and to what degree?
Politico you really need to do your research. There are multiple clinical studies that show Hydroxychloroquine can be beneficial for treating symptoms And the FDA has approved its use in emergency situations
She’s got no credibility 👎🏼
Maybe, some one took this medicine hoping it would help
I loathe her.
Sue the propagandists on FoxNews... We’ve had enough. Now they’re blatantly killing people with their endless extremist bullshit
But it appears to be correct, read a little you will feel better.
And she was right
Well the FDA agrees. Keep up
This thread is full of people that think this drug will save them if they go to the beaches. Instead medtwitter will get to tell their families the truth when they are in the hospital.
This article lays out why this drug combo is not safe...but since Dr. Trump says it’s good then.....
TWITTER NEEDS TO BLOCK FOX ENTERTAINMENT FOR PROMOTING FASE INFORMATION AND CAUSING DEATHS...SAME FOR TRUMPS ACCOUNT...MAKES TWITTER LOOK JUST AS BAD AND JUST AS GUILTY...
Yes, and it has treated a lot of people already. You guys are clowns 🤣🤡
There was a time when alcohol could not be advertised on TV. Why are TV celebrities who have no medical training allowed to promote or even discuss the benefits of a drug. There could be legal liabilities or even death.
Oh man, if this drug works you guys are going to look like such dipshits.
Fox News..........
Outlawed by our Governor Here in Nevada for covid-19 Patients; There's your story!
There is actually a LOT of evidence that proves what she said is TRUE! If you could ever bring yourself to become a reputable orginaztion you would start reporting on fact rather than fiction and opinion. We are sick and tired of your opinions. You are part of the problem. Trash!
2 weeks from now you guys will be eating crow...AGAIN!!!
Yo dummies, get a load of this.
She is a great host. I lover her show. Very informative and intellectual.
FDA approved, you hacks
coronadouche
It’s working on the few that have taken the combination.
At least there is a new randomized controlled clinical study out today supporting it.
There are LOTS of evidence 'to that effect.'
And you know what will happen to her? Fuck-all NOTHING, guaranteed!
Of course she did. Misinforming gullible viewers is what Fox does. It's their business model.
