“Hydroxychloroquine, HOQ’s use with lupus, compared to the huge outcry when the same medication is used to treat covid19”
I am not aware of any media blitzto push HCQ for all lupus patients. If there was you can bet there would be a outcry slow down discuss it with your doctor there are risks
Even pharmaceutical ads warn of riks “including death” and “discuss with your doctor whether xyz is right for you”
AND even if there was such a push.
1. There a re fewer patients lupus patients so side effect would be rarer.
2. The benefit is well established so the risk is justified.
“The patients are always told of possible risks as that is routine,”
YEs! and monitored for those risks! Now you get it.
but anyway this is a long digression.
what is it that we are arguing about?
What point of mine do you disagree with- Is there one?
