If its working so good, how come the numbers are going up at the same projected rate as before?

What numbers, who's projections & working where? NYC just ordered in thousands of doses, so you might want to give them a bit of time
to administer them to patients, wait for them to recover & then collect the data. That might take a while.

That statement is a free roll, not a prediction.

If it doesnt work, he will just say, I didnt say it was gonna work.

But it does work he will be flapping his gums at all his rallies, how awesome he is... a veritable Nostradumbass of sorts

As the chosen messenger of God, perhaps he already knows it will work?

The pertinent "numbers" are the recovery time/rate of treated patients vs non-treated patients from similar populations (presumably symptomatic but not on their death bed).

AFAIK these numbers aren't available for even a medium sized sample, but go ahead and post them if you have them.

when on death bed is when you gamble, regardless of side effects. The playbook seems small, so the chloroquine malaria cocktail is a good choice, no drugs are side effect proof.

I would say they would have to do it before that. The death bed stage seems too late, no?

I've read some literature that chloroquine (plus antibiotic) isn't very effective in late stages partially because it needs to be used in dangerously high doses with bad side effects. Better to be used in moderate doses in early stages to help recovery and prevent severe symptoms.

The whole idea of the drugs is to keep people out of the hospital and ICU.

IF they are effective presumable they would be standard treatment for people early on in their disease progression. Keep in mind most infected people still dont get tested and only the ones with more severe symptoms would likely go to their dr.

Trump moved to florida officially last year, obviously God is sending damnation onto that cursed city as punishment for failing to honor Gods chosen emissary.

"New York is moving at unprecedented speed and scale in a human experiment to distribute tens of thousands of doses of anti-malarial drugs to seriously ill patients...

With no proven treatment for the coronavirus, and infections in New York topping 30,000, health experts say the Food and Drug Administration has moved with uncommon speed to authorize New York’s sweeping plan to distribute the drugs through hospital networks.

Planning for such a complex initiative would ordinarily take up to nine months, those experts say. In New York, the U.S. epicenter of the covid-19 pandemic, that timeline has been compressed into three days."
