    1. James W. that makes absolutely no sense that President Trump would lie about having the virus. With narcissist being one of the favorite terms used to describe him, why would he show “weakness” by admitting he had tested positive, even if he hadn’t? Everyone involved at Walter Reed would have to be involved also which is highly doubtful. If President Trump wanted to claim he had it, would have been much easier to just stay at the White House to control those involved.

    1. The better question is what have they wasted MORE money on: Trump golf trips or stocking up fake treatments that Trump makes personal gains on? I can’t wait for the Trump Train to come to a screeching halt on November 3rd.

  1. The key word may be “severe” and it’s definition for the study compared to how the drug was used in the U.S. study. It also depends on what other supportive care was available. That’s why these studies can be hard to interpret.

  2. Key phrase – “The study, which was not peer-reviewed, found that four treatments tested”. As of two weeks ago there were over 30 studies that regarding Covid treatments that had been debunked once they were peer reviewed. Covid has become politicized and even the science world can’t publish unbiased findings at the moment. Hopefully that will change November 4th.
