Trump defends Stella Immanuel’s hydroxychloroquine video wednesdaymorning

President Donald Trump has defended the viral video of Dr Stella Immanuel and again approved the use of a disproved anti-malaria drug, hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for COVID-19.

Despite scientific studies showing hydroxychloroquine can do more harm than good when used to treat coronavirus symptoms, Trump, who first touted the drug as a coronavirus cure in March, said he believed it worked “in the early stages.” The World Health Organization says there is currently “no proof” the anti-malaria drug is effective as a coronavirus treatment nor that it can prevent the virus.

In the video, Dr. Stella Immanuel, a physician from Houston, promotes hydroxychloroquine as a cure for coronavirus. She claims to have successfully treated 350 people.But she is seen regularly wearing masks in videos posted to her Facebook page, where she preaches during religious events.Trump said about Immanuel, sidestepping questions about her history of dubious medical claims.
