PUBLIC ALERT ON THE USE OF CHLOROQUINE/HYDROXYCHLOQUINE FOR COVID_19

The hysteria created by Covid_19 pandemic has led the world's health experts/researchers to find treatment cure for the disease. Chloroquine is in the forefront of numerous clinical investigations as for Covid-19. My phone is always buzzing by people who want to buy chloroquine for use as prophylaxis against Covid_19. it can be quite demanding educating people on the rational use of chloroquine.

Cases of chloroquine poisoning are rampart in our health institutions.
The dangers of self medication are worse than the actual effects of the disease.In the recent past.a man was reported dead after self medication with chloroquine in Arizona. Irrational use of chloroquine can lead to an irreversible blindness, mood variations and other deleterious effects. Only established cases of Covid_19 could benefit from chloroquine medication .There is need for extreme caution as it requires further clinical study. Chloroquine is not yet 'the Game Changer' as pronounced by President Trump of the United States. There should also be a lot of caution about widespread prescription of an unapproved medication for a Novel (brand_new )disease.

Prevention against corona virus still remains the approved international protocols for safety. Using universal precautional measures such as washing of hands, social distancing etc.

SAY NO TO CHLOROQUINE ABUSE! STAY SAFE!

Most you tell him to shut up?
He was only educating people. It seems you are devoid of happenings in Nigeria. People will start swallowing chloroquine any how, because someone said chloroquine is been use to treat covid-19.
Just watch as more people will die from chloroquine poisoning than from the actual disease. Ignorance kills faster than disease. (If you remember Ebola) how people died as a result of too much intake of salt.

Hydroxychloroquinne is only effective in people with severe symptoms, it slows down the rate the virus reproduces which gives the body immune defence enough time to respond..

I'm not quite sure while people are swallowing the damn thing..A lot of people survive this, just follow laid down protocols by Who and you will be fine..Ensure your older family members and those with underlying medical conditions are kept safe.. Get a good high dose vitamin C and fortify your immune system..We shall overcome.

Oga pack well...pack very well. Ordinary paracetamol(an analgesic) is abused on a daily basis yet it's still selling like sin. The OP is just like every other log-nut out there waiting for WHO to approve while people are dying out there. Oga, people are dying.. D-Y-I-N-G...do you know what that means? Do you? If WHO had approved of the use of chloroquine since the day Trump suggested do you know how many lives would have been saved? His post is not on enlightenment; its on prohibition

some are so empty.. One man died of drug abuse.. Then 100 died of not taking same drug.. And someone recommended we shouldn't take same drug because someone abused it..

WHO even disapproved use of face mask. When their ignorance was busted they changed to it was to prevent hoarding of face mask meant for health professionals.
