    So you only trust doctors that support your political bias.

    They are vaccines. A vaccine is a means of teaching your immune system how to manufacture anti-bodies to specific viruses. In the past, we did this by injecting dead or inactivated virus into the body. We still do this with the older vaccines. Another method is to insert the instructions your body needs directly. Pfizer works exactly like a virus does. It's how nature does it.

    LOL. It's not misinformation when you sweep everything under the rug you don't want known while only putting out the information you do want known?

    Scientists lie like rugs.
    Surely you know that well documented truth, however inconvenient, by now.
    Why would any informed thinking person "trust" them?

    "The organization that uncovered the world of offshore tax havens and rogue international finance in the Panama Papers and Luxembourg Leaks has shifted its attention to fake science. In collaboration with reporters from 18 news outlets all over the world, German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung examined 175,000 scientific articles published by five of the world’s most prominent pseudo-scientific publishing platforms. The result? The collaboration found that some 400,000 scientists worldwide have been published in these journals since 2013."

    Blind trust of "scientists" has always been foolish. It is especially foolish during a well documented "replication crisis". "Scientists" are being exposed for fudging their data with great frequency now.

    "Can’t take criticism? Just make up your own reviews! It may sound far-fetched, but we’ve now counted more than 270 retractions, more than half of them this year, which occurred because authors or editors compromised the peer-review process in some way—most egregiously, some authors faked email addresses for peer reviewers and gave their own papers a green light."

    And honestly, you didn't even read your own link so this post isn't even informed.

    That's from your own link. In other words, the Fake Journals are the problem. Not science or scientists. Do people make mistakes? Yes. Science encourages they are corrected.

    Now, here you are being corrected. Wanna bet you don't take the correction? An informed, scientific mind is always open to being disproven.

    Doctors hoarded HCQ for themselves and their families. Proof that doctors know that HCQ is an effective treatment.

    Retractions are proof that you are wrong. It's those who think they are always right that are the problem. Like your boy Trump. It's nice not to have to argue with someone when they do it for you!

    The stupid ones. If you go to one who did, you should stop. They clearly don't understand their own profession.

    LOL! Read the headline! "400,000 Scientists All Over the World Have Been Published in Fake Journals".
    400,000 "scientists" chose to publish in those Fake Journals. That is a lot of Fake Scientists - isn't it?
    Think it through.

    Even Nobel Prize winners are now being exposed for publishing Fake Science.

    It's not interesting at all. From your link.

    These are basically mothers against drunk driving. In other words, this is an interest group who has an agenda. One they bury in the FAQ and one you didn't bother to inform us on. More over, they failed to admit that this data is conicidental, not causal. In other words, there's no data to prove any of those miscarriages were cause by the vaccine, just that someone who got vaccinated had a miscarriage. Guess what? Miscarriages are incredibly common in all human females.

    This is just anti-vax propaganda dressed up as being open and informative. It's data without explaining how it was gathered, unlike a real source of information would caveat.

    The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) Request (cdc.gov)

    See?

    LOL! Enough "stupid ones" to create a nation wide shortage of the drug. ;-

    "A nationwide shortage of two drugs touted as possible treatments for the coronavirus is being driven in part by doctors inappropriately prescribing the medicines for family, friends and themselves, according to pharmacists and state regulators.

    “It’s disgraceful, is what it is,” said Garth Reynolds, executive director of the Illinois Pharmacists Association, which started getting calls and emails Saturday from members saying they were receiving questionable prescriptions. “And completely selfish.”

    Demand for chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine surged over the past several days as President Donald Trump promoted them as possible treatments for the coronavirus and online forums buzzed with excitement over a small study suggesting the combination of hydroxychloroquine and a commonly used antibiotic could be effective in treating COVID-19."
    PROPUBLICA, SERIES: CORONAVIRUS, Doctors Are Hoarding Unproven Coronavirus Medicine by Writing Prescriptions for Themselves and Their Families, By Topher Sanders, David Armstrong and Ava Kofman, 3/24/20.
    https://www.propublica.org/article/...escriptions-for-themselves-and-their-families

    Who is more likely to know the truth: You or all those MDs who had enough sense to grab all the HCQ while they could?

    Or do you trust the "doctors" who denounced HCQ in Lancet and the New England Journal of Medicine?

    Political Science will always breed Fake Science.

    If you BELIEVE in hydroxychloroquine, well by all means, don't let me stop you! Start taking it! Take all of it! Best of luck.

    But if you read the data, it will only help you if you have Malaria. So yep, I'm such an expert, I had to READ the data and available information.

    But keep thinking your a "critical thinker" or an "informed thinker" or whatever euphemism is being used these days for "ignorant" so we don't hurt the feelings of snowflakes.

    All these? How many was it? Do you even know? Was it 1 doctor? 100? 1 billion?

    Moreover, how does this change the reality that it does nothing to help COVID 19? Sorry, but these doctors and you are incorrect on hydroxychloroquine. It doesn't have any benefit against COVID. They were wrong. And you know how we know that? Science. There were trials done on hydroxychloroquine and COVID. By doctors and scientists. And the data showed that it wasn't effective. So there you have it. Again.
