FDA & HHS being sued to 'ALLOW' use of HCQsteemCreated with Sketch.

The Association of American Physicians & Surgeons has filed suit against the Food & Drug Administration to be able to have the ability to prescribe and implement hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) as a tool against the so called pandemic causing 'virus' COVID-19.

“As confirmed by another recent study of thousands of patients at the Henry Ford Health System in Michigan, HCQ is both very safe and highly effective in treating COVID-19, reducing mortality by 50%,” AAPS informed the court in its filing. “Countries with underdeveloped health care systems are using HCQ early and attaining far lower mortality than in the United States, where [HHS and the FDA] impede access to HCQ.

“Citizens of the Philippines, Poland, Israel, and Turkey all have greater access to HCQ than American citizens do,” observes AAPS General Counsel Andrew Schlafly. “In Venezuela, HCQ is available over the counter without a prescription, while in the United States pharmacists are prevented from filling prescriptions for HCQ.”
AAPS rebuts arguments presented by the FDA, which implied that medications are approved as safe only for certain conditions. In fact, HCQ and most medications have been approved without limitation, such that physicians can prescribe them for any off-label use.
“The mortality rate from COVID-19 in countries that allow access to HCQ is only one-tenth the mortality rate in countries where there is interference with this medication, such as the United States,” explains Andrew Schlafly.

It is the opinion of myself that it is a sad day when we have to sue the government for the access to a proven and effective drug for ANY reason let alone during this state of emergency they have declared upon us. It will however, be a HUGE WIN for THE PEOPLE when this is resolved.
