Did any of you guys read that Chinese article I posted last night? Did some more digging around on that, i think it’s closer to what’s happening and not just hopeful.
We’re using the numbers wrong. Or moreso we don’t know all the numbers yet |

So trying to add some stuff up here, am I correct in saying that doctors are 'approved' to prescribe any drug on this hypothetical 'list' of known treatements for a disease if that disease is diagnosed? But they're ONLY allowed to prescribe from that list unless they can find some sort of exception? And so in this case, by utilizing the sympathetic use exception (which again, seems very open ended), they can effectively prescribe it? I mean...practically speaking given that we have no hypothetical list for a novel virus anyway, doesn't this just serve to put this ON the list, whether the FDA officially says so or not? Is this little more than a CYA measure from the FDA that doctors are going to wink and nod at before firing these tablets out by the hundreds of thousands? |

Plus it would mean they have like 20 million infected which, knowing what we’re seeing with asymptomatic cases that would make some sense |

But there isn't a single country on earth that could test Millions within this time frame. The USA after removing the FDA and the CDC from the problem has DRAMATICALLY ramped up its capacity for testing and processing. Again, we are a massive country that is spread out. Unlike South Korea were almost a majority live in ONE CITY. |

Who's really going to call physicians on the carpet for it? Is this just the FDA protecting themselves if things go completely haywire and this thing goes sideways in a month? "Hey, we told physicians not to go throwing these out all willy nilly until it was tested further. Not our fault they did it any contradiction of federal guidelines..." It just sounds like a shifting of liability more than a true bright line cut-off. |
