Thank you, my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for making us aware that Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) has asked the federal government for anti-malaria medication Hydroxychloroquine that may help treat the Chinese coronavirus.
Background from [townhall.com/columnists/kevinmccullough/2020/03/29/hydroxychloroquine-help-is-on-the-way-n2565926}
1. "France reversed its previous ban on the drug. When the highly esteemed Dr. Didier Raoult released his first survey’s findings the French medical authorities were resistant. As he released an even larger study, with more patients and improved results from his initial study, the French public health officials had no choice but to give guidance as to its use."
2. "One doctor in Monroe, New York has treated in excess of 700 patients. As of this writing he’s lost zero patients to death, zero to intubation, and only two to hospitalization. Another doctor in New York City has treated in excess of 100 patients with zero deaths." per

"The Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA) recently threatened doctors with “administrative action” if they prescribed Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine to treat the coronavirus.
“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,” read the letter. “… Again, these are drugs that have not been proven scientifically or medically to treat COVID-19.”

Apparently this governor has had visions of grandeur believing that she was above it all and knew more than the medical and scientific experts... I do believe that she may be way over her head and really doesn't have a clue as to how to help her state of Michigan... Time for the people to make a change in governors at the voting booth...in my view...based on her actions or lack thereof...

They should get rid of her the way they are getting rid of Newsome in California.
