When Greed Becomes More Important Than Life.

This seems appalling to me.

Today, we have reports that the governor of Michigan has threatened the doctors of her state who prescribe the anti-Malarial drug that has shown such promise in treating the Covid-19 disease, with possible prosecution.     I can see only one reason for doing this.   I suspect that the "big Pharma" companies  are exerting pressure, in order to protect their demand for a vaccine, which is expected to take a year to produce.  Certainly, these companies can expect to charge huge fees for any effective vaccine that they produce.  Could they have offered the governor a huge bribe once the vaccine has been produced, and marketed at horrendously high prices???   To pressure someone to not allow effective treatment,  or even possibly effective treatment, for fear that the disease may be eradicated, by the time a vaccine can be produced, is effectively condemning  perhaps  hundreds, and even thousands to death, in the mean time!!!

If my suspicion is correct, this governor, and any companies that pressured her are complicit in premeditation of mass murder, and should be prosecuted accordingly!!!  We certainly expect that the passage of  a law for 2 trillion, plus dollars would attract all kinds of felonious schemes, but this is just too appalling to even imagine!!! 

UPDATE:  12 hours later--

It seems to me that there are three approaches being made to the Hydroxichloroquin treatment aspects of the covid-19 crisis.   One, the causius approach of the medical personnel, vs., two, the front line Doctors who see the influx of patients, and recognize the potential benefits of treating patients, now, who may not live long enough to have whatever vaccine is eventually produced, be available for them, if they are dead months before it is developed!!! 

And, then there seems to be a greedy, self- serving bunch of "Big Pharma" company executives, who care nothing about the people who may be dying, now, who might be saved by the treatment of these existing drugs, which have already been proven to be safe, when administered for other conditions, which migt be effective in treating the coronavirus!   They seem to be concerned about protecting the inherent demand for the vaccine, even at the expense of lives who may be saved by the treatment of  these drugs, that were developed for other diseases, but seem to be beneficial for this one! 

If my suspicions are true, lets pray that our President, and his advisors have both,  the wisdom to see through the silly causions, and the greedy callousness of the detractors, and begin to promote the causious use of these "off label" drugs, even with an experimental perspective!   The data from these efforts can assist in deciding who can be given the drugs safely, and if there are some who should not!   In  any case, if some are saved by these drugs, who appear to be otherwise hopelessly ill, I don't see the harm in trying them!!!
