Are YOU against masks?: Yeah, I agree with you there. I really feel for those who are impacted financially by the stay at home order and can see why people are pushing to 'open things up.' The non mask wearing is just a dumb stand to take when it really can make a difference AND help us open up. — Kamal O.K. Scott (@AztecAlum) May 19, 2020

She described a RCT testing for HCQ as a prophylactic in which all participants are “first responders” (EMT, ER personnel, etc.). They expect to have results at the end of June. And it it doesn't give the results the President wants, he'll say the doctors were Democrats who hate him. Just like he did with the VA study of HQC.

She described a RCT testing for HCQ as a prophylactic... We describe the design of a clinical trial of hydroxychloroquine for post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and pre-emptive therapy (PET) for COVID-19. link.springer.com Interesting, but not what we were talking about. That trial is operating in the standard paradigm where the drug is post-exposure, hence a treatment, albeit a nip-it-in-the-bud very early one. I would be interested in her criteria for participation and what input testing they would be doing.
