An old malaria treatment that has been tried with some success against the new coronavirus and was touted by US President Donald Trump at a news briefing earlier on Thursday is in short supply as demand surges amid the fast-spreading outbreak.

The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists , which maintains a list of drugs in shortage independent of the US Food and Drug Administration’s list, added the generic malaria drug hydroxychloroquine to its list on Thursday.The new coronavirus, which causes the highly contagious COVID-19 respiratory illness, emerged in December in Wuhan, China and has spread throughout the world.

Trump called on US health regulators to expedite potential therapies aimed at treating COVID-19, including hydroxychloroquine. Its co-Chief Executive Jessica Nouhavandi sent a letter to prescribers earlier this week, urging them to be aware of potential hoarding of the drug that could deprives those who really need it.Jeff Bartone, who owns Hock’s Pharmacy in Vandalia, Ohio,said he purchased five bottles of hydroxychloroquine this morning, but within an hour the company that distributes it tohis pharmacy had run out.Bartone said he does not typically stock large amounts of the drug because it is not widely prescribed.

Business Maverick: All the Stock Market Gains Since Trump Took Office Have VanishedEver since his improbable victory in November 2016, Donald Trump has been inextricably tied to the fortunes of the stock market. At no time in modern history has the leader of the free world made rising share prices such a singular barometer of his success, or claimed so much credit for the record-shattering run. But now, it’s all coming crashing down. Karma
