    It not working would be a better fit for your narrative.

    It might work, it might not work. Early results are promising so I have hope!

    You're claiming that India only found out about hydroxychloroquine because Trump spoke about it, and based on Trump's word they reduced exports of it? Do you ever wonder if some points are to ridiculous to even attempt making?

    And you're claim is Fake News:

    India Again Allows Export of Antimalarial Drug Touted for Coronavirus

    President Trump had urged the country, one of hydroxychloroquine’s biggest producers, to release supplies of the medicine

    I bet your face is red!

    India wants to know that if China gets frisky that we'll have their back. We'll get the Trump pills in the quantities we need, and lots of American suffering and death will be avoided as a result.

    Fake News:

    THE ANGLOSPHERE DELIVERS: ‘Thank you India’: Trump showers praise on Modi for hydroxychloroquine.

    [​IMG]
    US President Donald Trump on Wednesday showered praises on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Indian people on Twitter, his response to the Indian government easing restrictions on export of anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine (Trump Miracle Pills) that he has said would be a game-changer in the battle against Covid-19 pandemic.

    Trump’s tweet, which effusively thanked India for lifting the export restrictions on the drug, was the second occasion in 24 hours that he had applauded PM Modi for his decision. It was a sharp contrast to his interaction with reporters this week when Trump threatened “retaliation” if the restrictions weren’t lifted.

    “Extraordinary times require even closer cooperation between friends. Thank you India and the Indian people for the decision on HCQ. Will not be forgotten! Thank you Prime Minister @NarendraModi for your strong leadership in helping not just India, but humanity, in this fight!,”
    ~ President Trump​

    Trump reached about buying more than 29 million tablets of the drug, his conversation with PM Modi on Saturday and India’s success in handling the pandemic.

    “I asked him (PM Modi) if he would release it? He was great. He was really good. You know they put a stop because they wanted it for India. But there is a lot of good things coming from that. Lot of people looking at it and saying, you know I don’t hear bad stories, I hear good stories. And I don’t hear anything where it was causing death.” ​

    Fake News tried to pin the drinking of deadly poisonous, clearly label fish tank disinfectant as an "indication" (to brain-dead zombies) that prescription dosages of this widely prescribed drug were a danger to the American People, being touted by Trump. Fake News would be more dangerous to the American People if anyone believed these liars, but luckily, few do.

    India is the world’s largest manufacturer of hydroxychloroquine, producing nearly 70 percent of the world’s supply.

    Also may PREVENT infection:

    India’s National Taskforce for Covid-19 only recommends the use of hydroxychloroquine for infections among “asymptomatic healthcare workers involved in the care of suspected or confirmed cases of Covid-19” and “asymptomatic household contacts of laboratory confirmed cases”.

    I can’t find many updated sources for how the hydroxychloroquine tests in NY are going. Found a source saying it’s working from a day ago (NYP) And one saying it’s not from 3 days ago (NBC)

    Anybody have more info?

    With all the press it has received received recently it would seem we would have a ton of stores rather it was working or not.
