The fact that this bogus medicine/ treatment is really diverting the US from the real race to produce a vaccine is,Jonathan, the most important point here. However, I am not sure it is diverting scientific research a it is making sure the public doesn’t keep their ‘eyes on the prize.’ Either way, it is the typical snake-oil rapscallion that have promised miricle cures since the beginning to time. Trump is the only man to ever reach such political power in a democracy.
