This never seizes to amaze me. Like do people not have a brain? China makes money by serving as the worlds manufacturing center. China makes money by selling to the world. Why would China make a virus to affect its customers all over the world? What do they stand to gain?

Trump is reacting to advice from professionals that it does help although I fault him for being in a hurry.
Abeg which professionals adviced him to prescribe hydroxychloroquine for coronavirus, definitely not Dr Fauci. OK the latest excuse is that he was in a hurry to announce a cure.
Just noticed that this news of FDA's approval of chloroquine is not on the updates of FDA website. How come?

I already analysed the claims of that link to show how stupid it looked, besides I did not see any advice to Donald Trump there.

In case you missed it, here it is once more;

Hydroxychloroquine has been used for around 70 years to treat malaria, rheumatic conditions and other ailments. Now its potential use in the fight against coronavirus has become a source of hope for many, following encouraging results from a clinical trial in France on Monday. But experts caution that there is still uncertainty about its effectiveness.


Didier Raoult, director of a university hospital institute in Marseille, explained that he had conducted a clinical trial in which he treated 25 Covid-19 patients with hydroxychloroquine. After six days, he said, only 25 percent of patients who took this drug still had the virus in their body. By contrast, 90 percent of those who had not taken hydroxychloroquine continued to carry the Covid-19.

This is the crux of the trial. 25 patients were treated with hydroxychloroquine, after 6 days only 25% ( meaning 6.25 people - I wonder how he could get 25% of 25 people) still had corona virus in their bodies.
Now answer these; what is the incubation period of the virus, and how long does an infection last?
What is the fatality rate of the disease and by how much did the hydroxychloroquine affect the fatality rate?


This study seems promising, but we have to be really careful before raising hope when it comes to a virus as new as this one, for which we don’t yet have a lot of data,” said Sarah D’Alessandro, a professor of molecular medicine at the University of Milan and a malaria specialist who has worked on hydroxychloroquine.

But when it comes to human trials, the picture is foggier. “Tests on human patients [except for malaria] have so far produced contrasting results that are difficult to interpret,” D’Alessandro observed.

This is the views of a malaria specialist who has worked on hydroxychloroquine.


A European programme of large-scale clinical trials was launched on March 12, aiming to test the effectiveness of four treatments that have already proven themselves against other viruses, such as Ebola. Hydroxychloroquine was not chosen.

I know about the NWO and that ILLUMINati bullshit and the media war against Donald Trump led by the CNN.

But one thing that keeps confusing in all these is how come President Trump managed to get elected in the first place?

Does it mean that the NWO gang underestimated Mr. Trump or does it mean that Mr. Trump was able to pull off the victory with the aid of external powers (like Russia, for example)?

Didn't the NWO know that President Trump will be a wedge against their plan for total global domination?

Or could it be that Mr. Trump is also part of their plan whereby he seems like an option to rally around just to give a semblance of opposition?

I will like to hear your opinion on this.

Thank you.

More on Dr. President Donald Trump's claims;

New study casts doubt on hyrdoxychloroquine’s effectiveness in treating coronavirus

In a prime example of why President Trump shouldn’t be endorsing any unproven potential treatments for the novel coronavirus behind the current global pandemic, a new small-scale study by researchers in China indicates that the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine actually isn’t any more effective than standard, existing best practice for conventional care of patients with the virus.

The study, which included 30 patients with a control of 15 who received no treatment, with the other half being treated with hydroxychloroquine, showed that there was a statistically insignificant difference in the number of patients who tested negative for the drug after a week. During the study, those who received conventional treatment were provided anti-virals that are currently recommended for use in China, including Iopinavir and ritonavir. After a week, 13 of the 15 control patients showed no sign of the virus, while 14 of the 15 who were treated with hydroxychloroquine showed the same.

Trump is obviously not a scientist or medical professional, and yet he has been touting the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine during the White House’s daily coronavirus task force press briefings, and on Twitter, including when he called for them to be “put in use IMMEDIATELY” on March 21. The drug can be lethal in doses that exceed physician’s guidance, however, and a Phoenix-area couple subsequently self-medicated with a form of chloroquine used for cleaning aquariums, citing the President’s information about it as the cause of their decision to take it.

Chloroquine is not an antiviral drug, it's an anti parasite drug.

No one applied for FDA approval except Trump. There was never application nor clinical trials for the use of chloroquine as a cure for coronavirus in the US. Trump just railroaded the FDA to grant approvals without tests.
It does have antiviral effect

It's a crude shock that there are people who believe this nonsense you scribbled here.
Apparently over 700 of them, meaning over 700 people are walking around carrying in their heads this slavery mentality. I know sides have been taken and choices made all geared towards an election in the USA but I am dumbfounded by the fairy tales and superstory you cooked up here, every thing you said about trump is tantamount to jargons. In fact I must commend you, you must be a fiction writer or maybe you just have an active imagination or the other option which is you are suffering from some brain damage or mental breakdown. What ever it is, if indeed you formulated this bullsh*t all on your own I suggest you channel your skills to scriptwriting and literature. I must confess after I read your trash piece I regretted joining nairaland cause now I can't un see this rubbish you put up here.

He is religious,they keep thinking there is an ongoing war between the devil with NWO and Illuminati working for him and God with Donald Trump working for him. What is sickening is he got over 800 likes for the load of horse shit he wrote there. In there in the likes he got are first degree graduates,masters,Phd holders and even profs. It shows you the quality of education we have here. His level of delusion can drive any one into a fit of rage.

Election that Trump has lost already also watch him cook up another story of delusion again when it happens.He won't criticise Trump for not acting quickly like South Korea when both countries got infected almost at thesame time.Trump told Americans not to panick that is just like the ordinary flu that they shouldn't worry.Compare the figures of both countries now. He is now praising Trump for a drug China pointed out for a while now to be effective..Brainwashing is really bad.
