    Would encourage people to report this -- Beck advocating for a drug that medical authorities describe as still untested for coronavirus --to twitter.https://twitter.com/glennbeck/status/1242527469153988610 …

        Report it for what? It’s widely used in treatment for COVID-19. That’s a fact.

        Yes, but it doesn't deliver miracle cures. The jury is out on whether it improves outcomes a bit, but it doesn't deliver miracle cures. This sort of pernicious confirmation bias has been the stuff of quack medicine forever. There's a great chapter in Bob Park's book all about it.

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        Not sure this particular tweet qualifies for a report. He doesn't go out of his way to advocate for it. Uses the word "hopefully". Whether the report of this incident is factual or not is another thing.

        That’s why you have universities and science, the formal offspring of the observation of the laws of nature by the efficient cause of Christian monks and theologians - like Isaac Newton.

        Why doesn't it make sense? Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are commonly used to treat COVID-19 in other countries. It's use is standard in China. The FDA approved it for "compassionate use" so patients can get it.https://www.businessinsider.com/chloroquine-remdesivir-compassionate-use-coronavirus-what-it-means-2020-3 …
