The Fox News host brought two of her regular medical guests to make a 'detailed presentation' meant to persuade the president to push for the drug's wider use.
Fox host Laura Ingraham and two of her regular medical guests—cardiologist Ramin Oskoui and infectious disease specialist Stephen Smith—reportedly met privately with U.S.
Trump has repeatedly mentioned hydroxychloroquine as a possible treatment for coronavirus from early on in his daily epidemic briefings to as recently as this weekend when he said,"What do you have to lose? Take it. I really think they should take it. But it's their choice. And it's their doctor's choice or the doctors in the hospital. But hydroxychloroquine. Try it, if you'd like.
Political talk radio host Laura Ingraham gestures to the crowd as she walks on stage to deliver a speech on the third day of the Republican National Convention on July 20, 2016 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio.During his Sunday briefing, Trump even prevented Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the infectious disease expert on his coronavirus task force, from answering CNN reporter Jeremy Diamond's question about whether he agreed with the president's belief in the drug.
Before Dr. Fauci could respond, Trump said,"You know how many times he's answered that question? Maybe 15 times."says Fauci has"privately pleaded" with Trump to be more cautious in his endorsement.
Doctors can currently prescribe it"off-label" as a treatment for COVID-19 or other ailments like lupus and arthritis, but the drug also has side-effects like slowing heart rate, possible arrhythmia and interference with myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle that can occur with coronavirus.
