“There’s nothing wrong with the president mentioning something as a possible good thing. The president is there to give us hope”
Nothing “wrong” as long as he/she also gives us the full context of his “good things” and also provides the negatives or “bad things”. I’m not a big fan of Cuomo but every day at 11 AM he does exactly that……the good and the bad and lets you form your own judgement. Trump has been touting this malaria drug “cocktail” every day as a “gamechanger”, great results etc. leaving it up to the other experts on the podium to clean up after him by giving the warnings and downsides. When his own Veterans Administration comes out with an anecdotal report saying that more of its patients treated with this cocktail, DIED than those w/o the treatment and that report was all over the news networks (including FOX) and he ignores it and then claims to be unaware of it, you can see the dangers of being an uninformed “cheerleader”. I do hope this drug or one of the 15-20 others in clinical trials does work but STOP pushing just one unproven option that can kill many CV19 victims with coronary conditions. He can simply say that this and OTHER treatments are under study and we hope to have the clinical results soon.
