That article was originally posted on Medium, but they removed it because "This account is under investigation or was found in violation of the Medium Rules".

Interesting hypothesis, by someone who concedes they are NOT a medical doctor, who unnecessarily uses a lot of partisan language.

Here is something out of China that at least, on the surface, appears as though it might support the idea that blood cells not transporting oxygen is an issue.

Toolish statements like yours above won't get you anything from this guy.

You sure you flew F-16s? Cause I thought we weeded out most of the dix in our community. Guess we missed you.

The interesting thing, is there are more than 3 million people taking HCQ for various reasons. Statistically, several thousand of these people should have tested positive for covid19 given its prevalence. These people aren’t getting the virus, and if they were, the left would be skywriting that news to spite Trump.

Dude, seriously you need a vacation. I was legitimately sending that out because I've read some interesting things on the forum that have been informative and helpful. I am not a Dr and neither is my spouse. But Im not a slouch in bio medical and/or organic chemistry etc. My spouse is not a Dr and I thought maybe someone in our community might have a touch point to take this info and validate or use it appropriately to help all of us out. Whatever crawled up your butt and died needs an enema to rectify. As far as vipers yes I did fly them and based on your douche like attitude I assume you flew something with 2 vertical stabilizers? This wasn't a political post a$$.

No one WANTS HCQ not to work. I would love it to work. I would love to see my favorite places open back up so we can give them money. I would love to not get furloughed. I just want it to be proven to be THE fix and not rush into opening up the economy because of something that MIGHT be effective. If Trump was the medical savant and called it from the bleachers, man, good on him.

See that's where you are wrong.

Trump didn’t just make up hydroxychloroquine as a COVID treatment out of thin air...

Nope. Single seat, single tail, single engine.
Your original comment to which I replied did not convey that. Even after re-reading it several times. Like I said, we must have let you slip thru the cracks - bad on our part. Lesson learned. Cheers.

Mark my words. Trump has invested heavily in HCQ manufacturers. And you all are suckers for buying up a drug that doesn't work against COVID-19.


damn right!

Ok, as a lawn dart guy, can I mediate?

Well, I will anyway. Viperdriver, yes I agree that Phins appeared to overact. I do feel him because he has taken unmitigated Shiite from the posse of guys that like to stick together, usually with no supporting evidence, just character assignation. I find his posts to (usually) be backed up by at least some reasonable facts. Agree or disagree with him, he at least makes a reasonable argument

That being said, the statement about “spouse who is a Dr.”, although innocuous to most, could certainly be misconstrued easily by him. Basically, this is miscommunication at it’s finest.

From the immortal Rodney, (not Dangerfield....King) can’t we all just get along”. These are trying times for most, let’s give each other the benefit of the doubt.

Ok, fights on passing the 3/9 line....guns only;)

Phins2right 04-07-2020 05:14 PM

Buck, it was condescending to say the least. He's a better poster than that and is usually very cogent in his writings.

The posse on here is of no concern to me, could care less what they think about me or how much they "attack" - pikers.

I'll consider myself "colored white" for now and head to the mort locker east of the 115 line. I will regen however.
