Republicans are nothing if not prone to premature release. Probably why they put so much hope behind a miracle pill.

Hey, this is where Kid says, "Maybe the Governor should listen to the mayors."

Quote
"Georgia mayors said they were alarmed by the governor’s decision to reopen the economy this week, as the state joined several others in planning to relax restrictions aimed at curbing the spread of Covid-19.

The mayor of Savannah called the decision “reckless, premature and dangerous”.

The GOP Congress hard at work, along with some greedy restaurant owners:

Brownie points for Shake Shack for their quick reversal.

Fox has abandoned its love affair with Kid's favorite drug.

So has Donald Trump.

Will Kid keep the faith?! "What about that French study that Josh refused to acknowledge?" asked Kid, lying through his teeth.

Another question is why kids and young people don't seem to get the virus (or are asymptomatic and  therefore go untested)?

Blaming China for a slow response and mishandling the disease, is also an indictment of the Trump Admin which, unlike China, had weeks/months of warning and preparation time, more info about the virus and its effects, and started out with zero cases -- and yet handled it much worse than China (or anywhere else).  The US has nearly 1/3 of all the cases and deaths in the world.

Incompetence has a price.
50K Americans in the ground and counting.

If you go to the Investigational Treatments section, you can see the over a dozen potential treatments being explored, along with the three chloraquine hopefuls (chloraquine, hydroxychloraquine, and HCQ + the AZT antibacterial)
