"New Zealand has no new coronavirus cases and just discharged its last hospital patient"

What a great leader that country has
Jacinda Ardern is a gift to the world
Smart, open, honest and took this virus seriously early
She's the opposite of Trump.

James Cameron and co. are about to resume filming Avatar 2 in New Zealand. The entire cast and crew are currently in quarantine for two weeks to make sure none of them are bringing in the virus from their home countries.

The Lancet retracts it's story about HCQ causing any heart trouble.

Birx, Fauci, and the corrupt media who peddled this fake study from a washed-up sci-fi author and a cam girl owe the entire nation an apology. How many people died from lack of treatment because our nation's "experts" once again got duped by con artists?? "

Why should anyone in this administration apologize for anything? Follow the example of the President.

Cool. Staying honest
I'm not Anti-hydroxychloroquine
I'm for good unbiased research and let the chips fall wherever the chips fall with no politics or influence from a President pushing one drug over another due to politics.

Looks like AZ Duffman was right about the virus. Not even on the news.

Still doesn't look like there anything to be excited about.

It has become apparent that it doesn't matter how many times it get's repeated, that HCQ needs to be used early and with zinc and Azithromycin, the crowd will continue to swear that the drug doesn't help.

The reason I posted the retraction by the Lancet was, to show that the drug HCQ doesn't appear to cause heart failure.

May as well post in a foreign language.
