AKIQPilot Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 This is pretty crazy. Whitmer knows whats about to come crashing into her state. Why would she restrict the use of something that has shown such promising results? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't it Trump who was also trying to push this medicine but was quickly shot down about it? I believe a lot of politics are behind what we are seeing/hearing, but I'm not 100%.

I see politics constantly when there's talk on the news about this virus. It's sickening, imo, that all sides can't get along in a situation like this and at least work somewhat together. I still need to know more about her before I am conclusive but, IIRC, she is a Dem who isn't well liked by many who hates Trump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hit close to home quite early for you. Im glad you were able to distance yourself from potential carriers ASAP. What do you think of people who act like this is a big joke? Nothing more than a common cold or seasonal flu? Those blowing off social distancing like its a joke?

Everything is pretty much shut down around here. We are only going out as needed. Since being home from work last week Wednesday, I've only been to Meijers once, Kroger once, Sam's for gas 2x. Up to Mecosta to pick up a set of F150 wheels (only had contact with 1 person). Meat market once. Auto parts store 2x. Costco for gas once. CVS once. It's very contagious and hits those with underlying conditions harder than others than the flu does. However, according to China the recovery numbers are promising.

Why would she restrict the use of something that has shown such promising results? There's more to the story Tom, read the letter the State of Michigan sent out. There have been reports across the country of doctors hoarding drugs for themselves and family members. Quote STATE OF MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS LANSING GRETCHEN WHITMER GOVERNOR ORLENE HAWKS DIRECTOR March 24, 2020 TO: Licensed Prescribers & Dispensers RE: Reminder of Appropriate Prescribing and Dispensing Dear Licensed Prescribers and Dispensers: The Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs has received multiple allegations of Michigan physicians inappropriately prescribing hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine to themselves, family, friends, and/or coworkers without a legitimate medical purpose. Prescribing hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine without further proof of efficacy for treating COVID-19 or with the intent to stockpile the drug may create a shortage for patients with lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or other ailments for which chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are proven treatments. Reports of this conduct will be evaluated and may be further investigated for administrative action. Prescribing any kind of prescription must also be associated with medical documentation showing proof of the medical necessity and medical condition for which the patient is being treated. Again, these are drugs that have not been proven scientifically or medically to treat COVID-19. Michigan pharmacists may see an increased volume of prescriptions for hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine and should take special care to evaluate the prescriptions’ legitimacy. Pursuant to Michigan Administrative Code, R 338.490(2), a pharmacist shall not fill a prescription if the pharmacist believes the prescription will be used for other than legitimate medical purposes or if the prescription could cause harm to a patient. It is also important to be mindful that licensed health professionals are required to report inappropriate prescribing practices. LARA appreciates all licensed health professionals for their service and cooperation in assuring compliance in acting responsibly while continuing to provide the best possible care for Michigan’s citizens during this unprecedented and very challenging time.

And restaurants, bars, etc have been closed except for carry out only for a while now. We've only been on "stay in place order" for a couple of days. Where else should I have been going? Since stay in place has been in effect, I've only been to auto parts store 2x , Costco for gas , and Sam's for gas. Only 2 people I came in contact with were the 2 guys at auto parts store. And we were more than 6' apart. Edited March 27, 2020 by SVT MXZ XRS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
