The UK is bulk-buying millions of hydroxychloroquine tablets in case Trump is right that it works against the coronavirus

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.The UK government is seeking to buy 16 million hydroxychloroquine tablets in case the drug proves to be an effective coronavirus treatment.

Trump on Monday said that he had been taking the drug every day for 10 days, despite medical experts warning that it is not proven to be an effective treatment for the COVID-19 virus and could have damaging effects on some patients.. "I would've told you that three, four days ago, but we never had a chance because you never asked me the question.

However, despite this, Johnson's government is inviting offers from pharmaceutical companies to provide 16 million tablets of Hydroxychloroquine,The contract will be put out to tender on Friday, with UK scientists planning to test the drug and distribute it to the general public if it proves to be an effective treatment for the virus.

"All of the drugs being purchased can be used to treat other conditions too so they don't really go to waste if they aren't proved effective for COVID," the source said.

Lupus Sufferers beware.The idiots are buying up HDq

This is criminal misuse of taxpayer's money. You have to wonder what's in it for Boris.

Hydoxychloroquine isn’t effective against the virus, what it does is help prevent the degradation of the red blood cells so they can still carry oxygen. The same way the drug helps people with malaria. It’s effective very early on in the disease, not at late stages.

Boris, Boris 🤯

There is a 'blonde' joke somewhere in there

Bullshit. They are buying it up in a scheme. Your job is to figure out and report the scheme, not regurgitate the obvious.

🤦‍♂️

Well done. Glad to help 🇮🇳
