This is the guy that flew to Africa, treated a few patients with Ebola, then flew back and ate at a meatball shop in NYC. Put so many people at risk.

There wasn’t a single criticism to the use of plasma for the past couple of months that I can remember. Trump announces its approval at the world of media freaks out. Your bias is so damn obvious.

[stevenlockhart]

Is there good data to show that it isn't, though?

All the money being thrown around for snake oil and very relaxed FDA standard are going to lead to big future troubles for people. I’m surprised they haven’t brought back the leaches and torture tools.

[FirstNameLastName-okayyoutube]

What data do they have because I'm hearing there is very good data. So show us the damn data

[GWRick-ldrj]

Trump's politicisation of the FDA has left the American public to rely on unproven remedies to address life threatening medical issues. The question is, whose advise do you trust with your life . . .? A number of qualified physicians or a snake oil salesman who would prescribe Hydroxychloroguin, disinfectant or light stick suppositories ?

Whats the cost though?...especially with people who have no work or insurance. There's no point unless the individual can afford it. It's not like procedure will cost $20.

[avail.]

It is kind of what "you" fear??
