‘Rat Governor Wages War on Science

Maybe some ‘rats believe it more advantageous for a voter to die than be saved by a republican, from Fox News [1]:

[Nevada Governor Steve] Sisolak, a Democrat, issued an executive order Tuesday prohibiting prescriptions of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine for coronavirus patients after the president mentioned the two drugs during a press briefing.

“While the two drugs have necessary medical purposes, there is no conclusive evidence at this time among COVID-19 experts or Nevada’s own medical health advisory team that the drugs provide treatment for COVID-19 patients,” Sisolak said in a statement.

Mean while back in the world of the sane Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said, from Beitbart [2]:

Yeah, of course, particularly if people have no other option. You want to give them hope. In fact, for physicians in this country, these drugs are approved drugs for other reasons. They’re anti-malaria drugs and they’re drugs against certain autoimmune diseases, like lupus. Physicians throughout the country can prescribe that in an off-label way. Which means they can write it for something it was not originally approved for. People do that all the time, and it really is an individual choice between the physician and his or her patient as to whether or not they want to do that.

While Sisolak is right that the chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine have not be proven one hundred percent effective is curing Wuflu, it demonstrated fact that Wuflu does kill, and anti-Malaria drug are both safe and effective treatments.  How many residents of Nevada is governor Sislolak willing to let die?

The federal government, headed by President Donald J. Trump, also recommend that we all wash our hands.  I suppose Sisolak favors keeping his dirty, like his politics.
