Uhm, nope:
Look what’s already happening:
Nigeria reported two cases of chloroquine poisoning after U.S. President Donald Trump praised the anti-malaria drug as a treatment for the novel coronavirus.
Health officials are warning Nigerians against self-medicating after demand for the drug surged in Lagos, a city that’s home to 20 million people. Two people were hospitalized in Lagos for chloroquine overdoses, Oreoluwa Finnih, senior health assistant to the governor of Lagos, said in an interview.
“Please don’t panic,” she said via text message. “Chloroquine is still in a testing phase in combination with other medication and not yet verified as a preventive, treatment or curative option.”
Nigeria’s Centre for Disease Control warned that the World Health Organization hasn’t approved use of the drug against the virus. Africa’s most populous country reported 22 infections as of Saturday.
Trump said Thursday that chloroquine and its less-toxic cousin hydroxychloroquine had shown “tremendous promise” to treat the new illness. Hospitals in the U.S. are rushing to stockpile the drug.
The president doubled down on Saturday, telling his Twitter followers that hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin “taken together” could be “one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine.” He urged they “be put in use IMMEDIATELY.”
The Food and Drug Administration hasn’t approved the antimalarials to treat Covid-19, the respiratory illness caused by the coronavirus.
While chloroquine is no longer used to treat malaria in Africa, some pharmacies still stock it for patients who are resistant to other anti-malaria drugs.
After his White House Coronavirus Campaign Rally this morning, during which he once more flogged this “treatment” hard, he tweeted more misinformation:
This guy is a 26 year old “entrepreneur” who just posted this:
This is from his website:

At age 20, he moved to Los Angeles, California to further his career; launching multiple product businesses, a digital media company, and a real estate development firm. Michael Coudrey has made significant contributions to the digital media efforts in United States politics, offering social media and “digital information warfare” services to political candidates across the country. He is a philanthropist, having donated to political and educational causes, stating “we have a moral obligation to guide those who are willing to learn”.
This is the expert, Donald Trump is tweeting out to his millions of cultists.
He might as well be telling them to drink kool-aid at this point.
—————————————————————————————————————
They did drink the kool-aid and the hydroxychloroquine and the ivermectin and for all we know some of them drank disinfectant and shined a flashlight in their orifices to kill the virus because the stable genius whose uncle taught at MIT told them to. A whole bunch of them died unnecessarily. The ones who lived are excited to relive those glory days apparently and are excited to put Trump back in the presidency.
