I've been wondering this myself for months. The whole conspiracy theory is that #HydroxyChloroquine and #Ivermectin are cheap, plentiful drugs that big pharma doesn't make money on, which is why evidence of their efficacy is "suppressed."https://twitter.com/RogueRad/status/1367825455882113026 …

because the deep state uses roids but won't use the others therefore they work

It’s the appeal of occult knowledge.

Yes it is mind-boggling. Someone on Twitter insisted to me that a cult was "necessary" to promote HCQ because of the efforts to suppress it as a treatment... (

Maybe because it's already widely used for COVID and supported by most health care workers? Not sure. I don't know about the US but there are a small group of people here who manage to use dexamethasone as some proof of conspiracy, but that definitely did not last long.

Our very smart President that made a perfect score on his MoCA test pushed the hydroxychloroquine because having a cure on hand was the easy way out of a hard situation.

It's because Americans think medicine works like in the movies. Intrepid researcher finds a cure that everyone says won't work. Uses it on himself or age inappropriate love interest. Instant cure. Roll credits.

Same reason why they don't believe it's a pandemic. They need dead bodies in the street, collected up in a wagon

isn't a large part that steroids work/are used once someone is hospitalized? they aren't used to "prevent severe disease / hospitilization" like hydroxy and ivermectin supposedly were. i think its that they promised hypothetically (but wrongly ) to be a cureall before hospitilzat

Dex doesn’t offer the fantasy of ending the pandemic. I see this all the time with biotech stocks. Some attract cult followings of retail investors. Some don’t. It’s often not clear why.

True, but I've never quite understood why
#HydroxyChloroquine and#Ivermectin do offer that fantasy, given the initial paucity of evidence and then the accumulating evidence that they don't work. - Show replies
