Tonight, @ FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!

Hope Hicks, who has been working so hard without even taking a small break, has just tested positive for Covid 19. Terrible! The First Lady and I are waiting for our test results. In the meantime, we will begin our quarantine process!

When you thought an extraordinarily chaotic year could not pull out another twist. Well, here it is. END

PPS: For reference on HCQ

See, now, that this is NOT a normal silly season cycle?

would not recommend hydroxychloroquine to Trump because it has not been proven to cure the deadly disease.
Of course this is not true and the doctor is wrong and has no evidence to back up his claim. In the absolute sense nothing cures anything 100%. The proper expression is that HCQ is an effective treatment for C19 in most cases when used in combination with other drugs and supplements when used early in the progression of the virus. But notice nothing is recommended by the doctor. At least I didn’t see it. Neither has RHampton ever recommended anything.jerry

So what? In the normal world we wouldn't have noticed when the president caught a common cold, which is what this fancy branded "virus" is.polistra

RH7, the problem of course is the gold standard of "proof" fallacy. It is not in the gift of science to deliver demonstration beyond correction on premises that are self evident and axiomatic to all. Post Godel, Mathematics has serious limitations on axiomatic systems. Once one resorts to inductive evidence, responsible evaluation on inference to best current (and "revise-able" [technically, provisional]) explanation, then we can find quite adequate warrant under circumstances of a fast-moving pandemic. Were I in the US First Family's shoes, I would be dosing up on HCQ, Ivermectin, Azithromycin (or Doxycycline etc), Vits C & D also Zn, stat. I would also be taking in sun and sea breeze. Five to seven days. I would also have Drs Zelenko and Raoult on call, maybe Dr Immanuel and Dr "Been" too. KF PS: I note a re-analysis is pointing to effectiveness, even in the later stages of the U/L trajectory of CV19: https://www.worldtribune.com/effectiveness-of-hydroxychloroquine-was-hiding-in-plain-sight/ The key is that the mechanisms on the table are hard to dismiss: https://uncommondescent.com/medicine/the-frontline-doctors-put-some-plausible-mechanisms-for-hydroxychloroquine-on-the-table/ kairosfocus

Fox News medical contributor Dr. Mark Siegel said on Friday morning that he will not recommend hydroxychloroquine to President Donald Trump to beat COVID-19, a drug Trump has touted as a cure to the deadly virus, against the advice of health experts. Speaking on the Ingraham Angle, a program on Fox News, a conservative television network, which has downplayed the coronavirus pandemic along with President Donald Trump himself, Dr. Mark Siegel said the scientific community would not recommend hydroxychloroquine to Trump because it has not been proven to cure the deadly disease. https://todaynewsafrica.com/i-will-not-recommend-hydroxychloroquine-to-trump-to-beat-covid-19-says-fox-news-medical-contributor/rhampton7
