Studies are starting to show it's not working. Another French study suggests that it not only doesn't seem to work, it makes the situation worse for high-risk patients:

"These results do not support the use of HCQ in patients hospitalised for documented SARSCoV-2-positive hypoxic pneumonia... Among the 84 patients receiving HCQ within the first 48 hours, 8 (9.5%) experienced ECG modifications requiring HCQ discontinuation at a median of 4 days (3-9) after it began, according to French national guidelines. "

Yes, but a number of shareholders made a lot of money, so what exactly are you even talking about?
Besides, Trump never claimed HCQ would work or might work.

As always, they neglect to mention that none of those deaths are transmissible. There isn't a 7-day period prior to being hit by a bus during which everyone who interacts with acquires a 50% chance of being hit by a bus in 10-14 days.

I know we were discussing landlords in a different thread, but I think this one belongs here, instead.

Hawaii landlords reportedly [soliciting] sexual favors [in lieu of] rent amid pandemic
The Hawaii State Commission on the Status of Women recently observed an increase in reporting of landlords preying on tenants’ financial stress during pandemic to request sexual favors and arrangements. [...] An online guide was created by the Hawaii State Commission for women in Hawaii if they are victimized by a landlord. [...] Anyone victimized by a landlord should file a complaint [with] the Legal Aid Society of Hawaii [at] 808–536–4302 [...] Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and then 1:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Black and hispanic urban and suburban uneducated are now the Republican base? :-P
They're the groups being hit hardest by far, and obviously they don't care.

I know. And if they were actually mostly killing themselves wit this, i'd be all for it - if 1% of the population is going to die, it couldn't happen to a nicer 1%.
Sadly, the numbers don't currently support that...Those people tend to survive with "no more than a flu" and keep on saying stupid shit, while the poor urban folks get sicker and die due to lack of treatment and other factors.

Saw that somewhere else, too. I think the "company" in question said that they weren't going to manufacture the masks themselves, they were just going to buy them from some other vendor and deliver them as promised (but with that big, juicy markup). That's totally the same thing, right?
