Now this administration is hedging it bets that some how this drug will help in nov ?  Sounds like a campaign line.  President Trump has struck an amazing deal to ensure Americans have access to the first authorised therapeutic  
 
And its not a silver bullet  
 
Tests suggest remdesivir cuts recovery times, (by like 4 days) though it is not yet clear if it improves survival rates. 
 
Any help in treatment is good.. 
 
So what happens when another country (china) develops a covid vaccine and keeps it or buys up 3-6 months of production for themselves .. 
 
Trump just gave away the high ground... no country is going to go out of its way to help the US.. seeing we cant even limit the virus spread in our own country by are own citizens..   to many are think theres a pill or will be a for it.. 
 
And this purchase just reinforces this idea 
 
TRump still can't say all americans should wear a mask.. his base would call him a Rino 
But by not saying it.. they see that as what leadership...  to many fanboys

 Do you always wear a mask when within 6’ of another person Wayne?
Will you be in close contact with a person who eschews the mask?
