Trump Administration Wanted To Distribute Millions Of Doses Of Hydroxychloroquine
Emails obtained by Vanity Fair show Trump administration officials had a plan to distribute an unproven drug.
According to Business Insider, they wanted to hand out millions of doses of hydroxychloroquine to COVID-19 outpatients.
While the drug is an effective anti-malarial drug, there isnโt any evidence itโll work against the coronavirus.
President Donald Trump touted the drug as a coronavirus treatment and said they had a lot in supply.
The biggest patient study of the drug in the U.S. showed there was no benefit in using the drug.
