Globalist Politics Garbed in Fake Science

What is in dispute here is not the potential lethality of this particular virus, but the ongoing COVID-19 agitprop campaign by the media, their Democrat allies, and clearly left-leaning elements of the globalist medical establishment.

Introduction

As I write this piece, I have just been informed by my sister that my 96-year-old father, Joseph, who has been locked into a veteran’s nursing facility since March 12 because the Wuhan virus is present, now has fever of more than 102°. While his COVID-19 test results will not be available for days, as a precaution he will be taken by ambulance to the local hospital where we hope he will receive the drug hydroxychloroquine—the same drug the evil, lying media have been on a “jihad” to discredit, as Attorney General Barr put it, merely because President Trump endorsed it. My father has an iron constitution, so we are hoping and praying that if he has the Wuhan virus he will overcome it, as did this 103-year-old woman in Italy.

While my father may soon be benefitting from its use, moronic Democrat governors, cheered on by the same lying, evil media, have prohibited pharmacies and private doctors from dispensing hydroxychloroquine. The media have assisted these fools with the cover story that there is only a “partial ban” by Democrat governors because, to quote the Michigan directive, the aim is to prevent “a shortage for patients with lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or other ailments for which chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are proven treatments…”

Yes, we can be sure that Governor Gretchen Witless Whitmer of Michigan is deeply concerned that lupus and arthritis sufferers and those with “other ailments” have an ample supply of the drug as opposed to COVID-19 patients whose lives it might save. It couldn’t possibly be the case that under no circumstances can she allow Trump to be proven right or the “pandemic” to be diminished by a simple and effective treatment.
