Okay not to sound so pessimistic. Actually, President Trump's gonna save us with the rescue boats. So nobody's gonna drown.
The chloroquine boats just arrived.

I tried to find quotes were people were blaming their stupidity on Trump for ingesting this stuff the wrong way and I could not find the quotes. Secondly, I see a lot of people on here therefore claiming that the stuff does not work and Trump is an idiot for suggesting it might.
Yet, here we are with the FDA approving it for treatment.

I guess the only disagreement was, Trump was assertive about the positive impact of the medicine.
But the FDA guy said, this would take the "Trial route". Trump did not mention about it at all.
I guess that's the difference.

I had seen stories that said it had cured 100% of people treated. That seems pretty positive to me.

You can ask the people who claim they were cured by it.

(certainly, no one on the internet would ever lie . . . to you).

No one has tried to sell it to me. Do you have a link?

Because I haven't seen what you claimed so I guess we must be visiting different sites.

French researchers have been having success with it in their limited trials.

Italy and France are now prescribing hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine as treatments for coronavirus patients
It better be a massive trial because if it works the FDA trial and delay will lead to people dying.
Both of these drugs have been around for years and the side effects are minimal and known. If I had the symptoms I would insist on getting them from my doctor immediately - and then stop taking them if my test results came back negative a week later. Beats letting it progress unchecked while waiting for test results. No harm done if it doesn't work but possibly life altering if it does.
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Any grown-up high-ranking politician knows that you do not announce things to the public until they have been proven -- whether it's the existence of a new virus or the existence of a cure for it.
That said, if you wish to start an argument about a particular politician, take it to the soapbox.

To be fair, saying things like "This looks promising" is hardly an announcement.
However, you are right that politicians should know that there are idiots that will take what they say too far.

Which is why you do not put a businessman in a (major) political office. They do not understand the job. They think you can run a government like you run a business, and you just can't.
I've been saying this since Ross Perot ran for public office.

Had to go to the supermarket this morning - out of bread, milk, and a huge list of other stuff - so I stocked up for a long wait: couple of episodes of "Avenue 5", "Better call Saul", few Android games, big thick jumper, sleeping bag, you know the kind of thing.
Walked up to entrance, straight in. Walked round with shopping list, got everything on it. They had pasta (not on list, didn't buy), TP (not on list, didn't buy) - everything that they had run out of has been replenished. Had to queue briefly (just me, no-one in front) for a self serve till, paid and out.
Painless, and efficient. (Except for the "aisle campers" who make 2M / 6ft Social Distancing pretty difficult, of course.)
Maybe the panic stockpilers have run out of room to store TP, I dunno ...

Any idea how many weeks went by first before tp started staying on shelves? We're about 2.5 weeks in to the TP craze here in the US and just trying to get an idea when the sanity might start to return. We seem to be following in the footsteps of everyone else.

About a week and a half, maybe two weeks tops?

Really? That's great.
I am guessing we're going to have TP problems for months because people are conditioned to buy it right now. I think that will take a while to wear off. I hope I am wrong.
