'I've taken it for about a week and a half and I'm still here,' President Trump said at a Monday briefing.
President Donald Trump announced at a roundtable meeting for restaurant executives Monday that he has been taking the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine in order to prevent himself from contracting the coronavirus. Trump also said he was only being tested for the virus every few days.
"I've taken it for about a week and a half and I'm still here," Trump said of the drug. The president said there was a"very good chance" that hydroxychloroquine has a positive impact on the virus.After Trump's announcement, Fox Business host Neil Cavuto encouraged people with underlying symptoms such as respiratory issues not to take hydroxychloroquine because it could prove fatal.
Cavuto added that although hydroxychloroquine had proven to be beneficial in the treatment of malaria and lupus, people should not begin taking the medication"casually" or following Trump's advice because"the President says it's okay."
