How he's been allowed such airtime is beyond me. As a physician, I understand the desire and hope for a miracle cure in this crisis, but folks this ain't it. I've read the actual study where they were using anti malarials and the study is extremely small, non randomized, and really suspicious exclusion criteria. We have to keep our heads in this and not pass false hope to people and sadly, there are always whackadoodles like Oz who care more for making a buck than for the safety of their patients.

though many of his most vocal defenders have departed from DU's mortal plane

** cough cough sabrina 1 cough cough **

there might still be some fans of America's Quack lurking in the shadows.
