A doctor has to prescribe off label medicine. Generally, it would be your primary physician who would know of any contraindications. A doctor probably wouldn't prescribe it if the patient would likely be killed by the scrip. Unless, of course, the patient is about to die anyway, in which case if the patient agreed they could give it a try. Those without serious underlying heart conditions should not suffer life threatening reactions from hydroxychloroquine .

Your premise misses the fact that a considerable percentage of Americans do not have a primary care physician and that the population most affected by Covid-19 is the least likely to have any form of healthcare other than the emergency room. Communications with people other than the patient has also been greatly reduced during this emergency.
Hydroxychloroquine also seems to only be effective if given early in the course of treatment, not as a last resort.
Sorry no miracle there.
But feel free to be a test puppy.

Nope, didn't miss it. It's not relevant to what I said--"A doctor has to prescribe" it. Can't get it without a doctor's prescription.
and that the population most affected by Covid-19 is the least likely to have any form of healthcare other than the emergency room.
Far as I know, emergency rooms require doctors.
Communications with people other than the patient has also been greatly reduced during this emergency.
Guess some patients are out of luck. They may not have a heart condition, but if they can't tell the docs that, then they won't get the med.
Hydroxychloroquine also seems to only be effective if given early in the course of treatment, not as a last resort.
Key words in your quote="seems to be . . . effective". It also "seems" to have helped some in later course.
Sorry no miracle there.
No more of a "miracle" than social distancing.
But feel free to be a test puppy.

Feel free not to take it, and to tell all your friends, relatives, and acquaintances not to take it.

Wow an attack on experts
What experts?
Trump is right a lot more than Fauci and Birx are.
If he had been wrong about any tiny detail by a factor of 10, the Fake Media would be playing the videos non-stop from now until Nov 3.
The ONLY person who has saved any lives in this mess is the President. The "experts" will end up causing tens of thousands of deaths from suicide, drug addiction, child abuse, and stress.

Dr. Fauci on CNN’s Tapper Show: Earlier Mitigation Could Have Saved Lives
Now the Trump faithful at it again
Faucii is an idiot or he is a dishonest hack trying to undermine the president. Either way he needs to go.
