The Corona Virus has seriously disrupted American Healthcare. Not the virus, but the politics surrounding it. The Corona Virus death toll is less than half that of the Asia Flu pandemic of 1918, but it is being used politically to influence the election. The liberal media has played it up to be the worst ever to hit the world, which is a total lie. They are using it to defeat President Trump whom they despise. They cannot understand why anyone would vote for him. Their hatred is influencing the election adversely for Trump. They think that he should have done more.

They are praising the governors who have done more but have also killed more. New York put their convalescing Covid patients into nursing homes and had a huge increase in the deaths of the elderly. This didn’t bother the NY governor who is for physician assisted suicide for the elderly. He hit the jackpot on this malfeasance but got praised for it.

The politics also prevented treatment of Covid patients with known and previously approved drugs such as Hydroxychloroquine. Physicians have always been allowed to use any approved drug off label. But the liberals tried to prevent the use of the hydroxychloroquine, also known as Plaquenil, to be used for Covid. A double-blind study at Henry Ford found that Hydroxychloroquine was effective in saving lives. It was approved by the FDA in April 1955. There shouldn’t have been restriction on use and there shouldn’t have been political interference. One restriction was that it could be used only on inpatients. However, it was only effective when used early in the outpatient setting to prevent morbidity and mortality. It was less effective when the patient’s Covid had advanced to require hospitalization.

In fact, several pulmonologist used it and had a 100 percent success rate with no deaths by using it early when infected. They did not heed the government’s restrictions.   

President Wilson, during the Asian Flu epidemic which was more than twice as lethal as our Covid epidemic, never mentioned the flu epidemic.

It appears that the increase in lethality was caused by the government interference. President Trump was castigated for his relative non-interference which may cost him his re-election.
