Nursing home cited for giving hydroxychloroquine to 205 residents
BRIGHTON TWP. — State officials have cited Beaver County's largest nursing home for the controversial use of an anti-malaria drug to treat and prevent COVID-19.
The Pennsylvania Department of Health on Tuesday released a report related to a June investigation of a complaint that officials at Brighton Rehabilitation and Wellness Center administered hydroxychloroquine and zinc to help treat and prevent residents from contracting COVID-19. According to the report, the facility administered the drug combination to 205 of 435 residents as part of an "Experimental Post-Exposure Prophylaxis" treatment.
Brighton Rehab — the former county-owned Friendship Ridge nursing home — was the site of the largest outbreak of the novel coronavirus in a Pennsylvania nursing home. State records show that at least 332 residents tested positive for the virus, along with 113 staff members, and that 73 residents died directly because of the virus. An additional nine residents recovered from COVID-19 before dying from another cause. Brighton Rehab has been free of active COVID-19 cases for more than six weeks, facility management said Tuesday.

There's a lot more in the article. One thing missing, did it work? The timing of the deaths and positive testing are missing for some reason. One thing for sure, unlike with abortion, the state very much likes to step between a doctor and a patient.
Edited to add:
I think I might change that to "often" to fully agree. The Lincoln Project is pretty loud, for example, and they seem pretty smart to me, along with votevet and RVAT.
So, I tried to take you know who out of the bozo bin cause I really don't like to use it. After all, there might be something worthwhile coming from any quarter. But nope, not possible to read this thread that way so back he goes. Oh well...
One, telling people you're putting them on ignore is a poor strategy. They can write around that knowledge and make you look silly. Also, it gives the bozo bin person last comment on your posts. You won't even know what they said about you until you check later. Two, bozo bin bastard/bimbos (BBB) love it when those who don't like what they write put them on ignore. Lots less chaff out there when BBB wants to make a point.
So, thank you for your service.
