Bluegrasscard Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Michigan now supporting use of hydroxychloriquine treatments with a focus to ensure those using the medications "pre-rona" (likely lupus patients) continue to have access. I have not heard if there is stance at official level in Kentucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theguru Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I just read that 1400 members of NYPD have tested positive for Coronavirus. Has that conversation been had yet? What happens when the police are too sick to serve and protect?

Irish Cat Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 So is the use of hydroxychloriquine and a Zpak actually having positive results? I've seen a lot of Facebook post and Tweets of people claiming that these medications either cured them or someone they know of the virus, but I haven't seen any actual news articles suggesting what they've seen in New York since they got the go ahead to start using these drugs as treatment for the virus.

PP1 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Some people say there will be a major baby boom in December. I think the divorce rates maybe going up as well. Our house has not exactly been marital bliss the last day and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a Dr. Fauci quote from an article released yesterday. “He said there is “no evidence at all” that the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, just approved by the Food and Drug Administration for emergency use against coronavirus actually “has any effect.”Fauci said that – despite the lack of scientific evidence to support its use against coronavirus – he understands the excitement behind the drug. After all, according to him, “a storm of information and misinformation,” including “anecdotal stories based on nothing,” falsely depicted hydroxychloroquine “as a knockout drug.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsfan41 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Hopefully they were smart and tested every single officer regardless of symptoms or not. But to what end? Do they test every day after a shift? Before returning to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurplePride92 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 But to what end? Do they test every day after a shift? Before returning to work? How you mean? I’m saying I hope they tested every officer on the force. If negative, see you at the office. If positive, see you in 14-21 days hopefully. If negative on Monday and Friday comes and you think you were exposed take another test. Definitely test before they come back to work. Can’t come in the building without a negative result.

Can’t come in the building without a negative result. The only way that's feasible is if they have access to the tests with a short turn around time in the minutes. Otherwise it's just the same as everyone else. If you have symptoms, stay home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take a test and don’t quarantine while awaiting results then that is a huge problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
