COVID-19 treatment: FDA says hydroxychloroquine is not safe or effective The Food and Drug Administration is warning against the use of two drugs the White House has repeatedly touted as a possible "game changer" in the fight against the coronavirus. The Drug Safety Communication published Friday said the agency cautions against the use of hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine for COVID-19 treatment outside of hospitals or clinical trials due to the risk of heart rhythm problems. "Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine have not been shown to be safe and effective for treating or preventing COVID-19," the FDA warned. Both can cause abnormal heart rhythms and a dangerously rapid heart rate, the statement said. The FDA explicitly warned consumers not buy the drugs from online pharmacies without a prescription from a health care professional. "Consumers should not take any form of chloroquine that has not been prescribed for them by a healthcare professional," the agency stated on its website. |

248,250,000 x CFR of 0.5% (which I actually think is low because people in NYC are much healthier than the general population)= 1,241,250 So it all comes down to if you value the deaths of 1M to 1.5M people or not, versus your regular way of life. I actually can see the argument, because we could always save many lives every year by staying in our houses. Less car accidents, less crime, less other infectious diseases, less accidents etc. I tend to believe the rest of our population is quite a bit more at risk than NYC residents, which are both younger and more healthier than average than the rest of the USA population. You could potentially be looking at much more than that as it is the low estimate. |

Well this is interesting:
https://www.miamiherald.com/news/cor...242223821.html But health experts are concerned the statewide total of confirmed cases is significantly undercounted because Florida reports only the number of Floridians waiting to hear test results from state labs, not private ones — and private labs are completing more than 90% of state tests. The results of thousands of pending tests from private labs have taken as long as two weeks to be added to the state’s official count. The state’s website does not say its figures exclude the vast majority of pending tests for the novel coronavirus. |
