Trump volunteered the disclosure during a question-and-answer session with reporters at the White House as he met restaurant executives whose businesses are reeling from the impact of the virus.
Weeks ago, Trump had promoted the drug as a potential treatment based on a positive report about its use against the virus, but subsequent studies found that it was not helpful. The Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning about its use. Trump, 73, who is tested daily for the virus, said he had asked the White House physician if it was OK to take the drug, and the doctor told him: “Well, if you’d like it.”
White House physician Sean Conley said in a memo that Trump was in “very good health” and had been receiving regular COVID-19 testing, which has all been negative since one of his support staff tested positive for the disease two weeks ago.
Hey Reuters, you fake news media, the FDA cautions that the drug is to be prescribed only by a doctor. A doctor and patient decision. That is what is happening here. Clean up your liberal act. People are tired of your misinformation.
Well... he hasn’t caught malaria... ergo...never mind the herpes.
Is there a parody video of Oops Did it again?
I won't be shocked if Trump eats 💩 to treat COVID-19.
👍
So how many Trump insiders will benefit financially if hydroxychloroquine usage goes up?
But is a hoax from the democrats, easily controlled by ingesting bleach as it magically disappears
morbidlyobese
If Trump does it Reuter’s hates it. Try being journalists again.
The reason I think he has the virus is that, when tens of thousands of people died of the virus, he never criticised China (which means he didn't care much) and ONLY recently he started criticising China vehemently, which means he does care now because he got the virus himself!
FDA has warnings for almost every drug on the market. This drug has saved millions of lives and denigrating it is very dangerous.
Only thing that can cure trump is rat poison.
Lies
Why is he taking this medication and not wearing a mask?
He’s not just mad. He’s very dangerous.
Is that counted as suicidal?
He is expert in medicine, in law, especially in economy. He is one man authority, just like Erdogan.
Encourage him to take a larger dose, his supporters should also follow his lead. And would be great if he shares his tablets with his good friend Natanyahu. 👍👍
If anybody has to take hydroxycloroquine, it should be administered by a certified Doctor! President Trump is doing great harm to public health in America by urging the citizens to buy and ingest Prescription Only Medicines(POM)!
Could explain his skin colour.
He full of shit.
Maybe that's what keeps him glowing orange🤔
who believes this guy?
There isn't anything wrong it's all in the minds of the onlookers
“Anti-Malaria? I thought you said ‘Anti-Melania’!”
If Hydroxychloroquine is made in India it is potent. It is probably made with adulterated ingredients. real
Well it can cause issues with the heart and this is a senior who is obese with alleged cardiac issues...🤞
I believe he is lying too. He wouldn't have waited two weeks to tell the people....he was just spewing spontaneous lies again.
idrissaberkane
LIAR!!
Trump 'says' he's taking it, but he's not, I say. He, came up with that lie because it helped him prove a point in the discussion. That's what he does, routinely. Making up stories as he goes...
Is the current President showing any of these side effects?
Dear Dems, please don't take Hydroxychloroquine. For everyone else: Trump's taking HCQ & zinc, as are many around the country. A new paper out of NY suggests combining Hydroxychloroquine & zpak with zinc sulfate creates a more effective treatment.
Bullshit! if that's true, Trump would likely be dead by now.
He just overstepped the scientists and FDA... like how he pushed out of his way at NATO, the leader of Montenegro...this comes with a danger warning from the FDA..
'For obvious reasons, I mean I AM the President' 🙄🤣🤦
The doctor might be giving him sugar pills, that’s what they did with my hypochondriac grandmother. TrumpDementiaSyndrome
Why is he taking malaria medicine? Does he have malaria? Does he have corona?
Trying to make money.
He can take a laughing gas if he wants to, nobody cares
Yep, chlorine is next...
ANOTHER BAD INVESTMENT FOR TRUMP! BUT, HE STILL WANTS TO PROFIT FROM HYDROXY, REGARDLESS, HOW MANY LIVES IT WILL COST!
He takes HCQ as prevent medicin under his doctors prescription because he knows it works and he doesn’t risque nothing
The sad thing is, he could either by lying or telling the truth, really doesn't matter. MAGAts will follow him no matter what. This is the power of the cult.
Is he a pharmacist or a politician?
I do believe Trump has corona virus hence taking the drug; just as he hid his tax return successfully, he is manipulating the WH medics to hide having the virus from the public.
وهل هدا الدواء (فعل).بسبب
Yes also caffeine should be taken with caution.Better still,lets ban coffee all together,.im sure all you leftists yuppie snowflakes at will be up for that
Maybe he owns the drug manufacturer😂😂
The MEDIA nuts who were fighting TOOTH & NAIL to IMPEACH realDonaldTrump is SUDDENLY SO CONCERNED about Trump's health and he taking PRECAUTIONARY DOCTOR APPROVED medication (almost like a vaccine) to prevent Covid-19. What a TRUE BUNCH of HYPOCRITES.
He is lying. He loves himself too much.
An excellent TV commercial successfully opened the market for his son-in-law's medicine sales
wait a minute! he's taking a potential treatment for a 'democratic hoax' and for which he has constantly tested negative🤨
And his Doctor’s letter never explicitly states he was neither prescribed or actively taking the drug—Could it be that Trump is....Lying? Please say it ain’t so!🤥🤥🤥
Believe in Trump and live forever
Many people have taken it for many years for RA and lupus.
His Choice!
Here’s hoping.
Ya lyin doggg.
Surprise! He is lying. He wants people to say “oooh the president is taking a ‘crazy’ drug” not “100,000 people will soon be dead under Trump and the economy is dead too”
Maybe he should take double or triple doses
Try some Quinine. That's for malaria, too. Tell us what happens.
Most political leaders in the world take it. Only one says the truth. That is why i like this guy Trump
He is lying again.
He’s not
It’s sarcasm!!! Good old president Trump making jokes to cheer up the nation while thousands die in the middle of a pandemic, his selflessness to entertain the public knows no bounds, my hero, and saviour, he truly is Jesus reincarnated on earth turning water into Diet Coke!
Since he's morbidly obese he should take plenty to ensure he feels its effects.
Perhaps he should also try hand sanitizer.
He has the right to take it, anyone wishing harm on him or others for taking it needs help. It's never cool to wish harm on someone.
Trump never ceases to embarrass himself and his country.
Because he’s a stable genius! 🤭
True Leadership.
