  1. I can’t wait to see the commercials for the vaccine.

    Everyone’s going to be riding bicycles down suburban sidewalks, strolling on beaches, and playing with puppies!

    _Side effects may include: Death, bleeding out the eyes, weak bones, loss of appetite, and thinking The Masked Singer is good entertainment._

    1. Pixel Tits you forgot :anal seepage, bad gas mileage, and lower resale value on your home.

    3. @Jan Johnson If you’re being serious, you’re incredibly stupid.
      Also, everyone that has a phone (you know, just about everyone) can be tracked with that.

    1. The dude claimed to be able to cure “all diseases” and he was charged with money laundering and practicing medicine without a license. He advertised that his products could do things that there was no evidence they could do. He pandered to celebrities to make money and even tried to extort almost half a million dollars out of Michael Jackson. He was a fraud and an extortionist.

    2. WWBoston welp…. just popping in with facts! You don’t need a PhD or doctorate to understand that DRUG aren’t the answer…. the planet is and always has been the answer but billionaires see money elsewhere.

      In fact when I was a child my mother was diagnosed with arthritis…. after changing her diet and life style she doesn’t have that or high blood pressure and she’s off her meds and she’s not fully vegan either. She rarely eats chicken mostly veggies fruits and nuts and some fish. Ain’t Earth GOOD! Also Dr. Sebi won that court case to prove he healed all the people he mentioned.

  2. The reality is that big pharma wants to make money from this, so using an old already existing drug isn’t in their best interest… so they’ll do their best to discredit it.

  3. Do you Aholes ever have good news. Why not cover how the GND is the cure like Pelosi and Schumer propose

  4. That’s funny, I didn’t hear the clip of Trump telling people to use aquarium cleaner to cure Coronavirus.

    1. Maybe you should try reading about the actual Medication that has been used safely for eighty years for Malaria and is approved by the FDA for Malaria.

      No one is prescribing fish tank cleaner!

  5. Fauci stated this drug shows great promise. South Korea, China, Poland, etc. have more data than Fauci with respect to hydroxychloroquineor (aka Plaquenil) (which per the French study should be used with azithromycin). Their data shows that this drug helps with minimal side effects. The US is starting trials on this drug combination and other drug combinations. If you can wait and you are not sick than of course wait for the conclusion of these trials. If you can’t wait you can pass on trying these drugs or you can try these drugs (with your Doctors permission at a safe dose). Personally I would try them if I had more than a mild case of the coronavirus and was over age 50. Again they have been used for many years and they have been proven safe. You should let people (with their Doctor’s consent) decide on their own. My Doctor told me he would prescribe this medication in a second. Fauci is a brilliant scientist who wants a double blind study to prove their effectiveness. I agree with his approach if you have time to wait. Again South Korea and China have already tested this drug. If I get sick, I will go with South Korea, China, Poland, etc. at this point. That is my decision. Let the patient and their doctor decide what is best for the patient. I was also told by a friend that this drug is sold out throughout the US.

    1. It is a drug that has been around for decades. You are correct, many countries are also testing it. Look through the comments and you’ll see why CNN conflated a known safe drug with a couple in Arizona drinking fish bowl cleaner. You’ll see the comments “Trump is lying” or “Trump doesn’t care if he kills people” etc etc. It just shows how sick CNN is.

    2. You can’t expect democrats to do any fact checks or due diligence on what they hear. 🤣 They are sheep and only listen to what they are told like good little children. I mean, we are talking about the grown adults who were needing safe spaces with play dough, crayons and tissues when President Trump came President 🤣🥳 For god sake, they are still in diapers in the fetal position 🤣

    3. 1230sandrag -a couple weeks ago your orange stain and Fox News said the virus was a dem hoax and that it wasn’t anything to be worried about…so if it’s just a dem hoax why are you worried dumbass? The sheep you’re talking about that drank fish cleaner are trump supporters…😂😂😂 talk about sheep

  6. Doctors are prescribing hydrochloroquine to Covid patients. The article about the man dying after trying fish aquarium treatment chloroquine was CNN trying to put blame on President Trump for mentioning the drug… He was in no way telling people to use them. Know your facts people. Don’t be so naive to headlines.

  7. Still playing politics in the middle of a multi-national crisis. Beyond the Pale. Absolutely Disgusting. Dems committed suicide last night

  8. If he does not say anything then they will accuse of not doing his job. When he made mention of some possible drugs here you are again reacting. Of course there is still MEDICAL TRIALS for it as this is new to everyone. He is just giving hope to everyone. That in times like this, alternative solutions are always welcome! Just hope for the best.

    1. @CrasherXtreme I hear when Trump dies they’re going to bury him standing up that way he can’t lie in the grave. 👍

    2. Trump said he can kill somebody and get away with it. TADA Jim Jones said to drink the Kool-Aid and wants all to Church on Easter Sunday ? are REP. going to follow ?

  9. You guys are unbelievable, if one didn’t know better you would almost think you dont want to find an antidote.

  10. you guys have tds–china and south korea use this drug in their treatment protocol for covid-19

  11. Communist News Network would rather have you step three times, sideways, then eat asparagus root, and then puke 🤮 all over your shoes than to know exactly what you should do.

  12. It’s called hydroxychloroquine, not Clark when and I cannot believe he took fish tank cleaner, as I used to raise fish I wouldn’t in my right mind and just something that you clean a fish tank out with it is not called chloroquine it is called hydroxychloroquine I know this because I’ve been on hydroxychloroquine for my systematic lupus that attacks organs for three years and I am not able to get it. But my numbers in my blood work is good for now so if it works for the people that are suffering and dying then get it to them as quickly as they can, and they should serve as a lesson to Americans to get the hell out of China and make it in America again or we wouldn’t be going through this, most of our prescriptions come from China and they could easily poisonous that way it is time it is now time to make America America again..

    1. Elizabeth Mills it’s shameful what CNN does to America ! They know they are wrong for associating the two drugs. But, they do it anyway !

    2. And Trump didn’t, in any way, imply that anyone could administer the drug by themselves but CNN is not telling you that.

    3. Son T agreed, I try to listen to dr oz cuz he is the only one so far for me that gives hope- the rest of the media only delivers doom, we as Americans must not separate and divide we must come together and make it America strong again..!

  13. When is CNN and other haters of Trump, going to retrack their ” Trump kills Arizona man taking a drug”?
    In fact the drug was not the same. It was Fing fish tank cleaner. And Trump never say ” go out and gets some drug chloroquine.
    CBS, ABC, BSNBC all ran the lie to smear thg he President. Disgusing news.
    Americas with a brain see your fake a smear.
