7:00 pm
betting i say we save the world again. we will never be the hate rage comfort media mob, we tell you the truth, they always get it wrong. laura ingraham has a great interview with a guy that had corona on hi his deathbed, and laura ingraham, it is a great ending. >> let me say i love the fact that you have perspective on the scoured that we are dealing with, and optimism and hope. america was built on freedom, liberty, we are an optimistic people, a hopeful people, not blind but informed with all the great medical talent we have. also, the long-term balance hear it we also have to balance things out in the end, that is what we need. we need more voices, not fewer. down with the sensors, all that. you hit it out of the park. >> sean: the story this guest, you have to see it.
7:01 pm
i talked with a guy on my radio show today, i was going to play a bit of it but then i found out you had the guy. >> laura: i heard him on your show. >> sean: here's the thing, you know, laura, you look at all of these. testing, we will make you ventilators, we will make you masks, what else do you need? it is so inspiring, then you have the idiots. they are just politicizing it. >> laura: it seems like there are people who are rooting for america in both parties, who are just great people. then there are people who want to use a crisis to try to jam an agenda. those guys never win, it is very cynical and negative. that is not what it means to be an american right now, you nailed it. >> sean: we have rewritten the books, this will save countless lives in the future. have a great show, can't wait to watch. if you >> laura: sean, thank you so much. i am laura ingraham and this is
7:02 pm
"the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. i have been telling you for a week about hydroxyl chloroquine, add azithromycin and these are drugs that could drastically change the impact of the coronavirus. it tonight, we talk to a doctor who is using it to treat covid-19 patients. a man who was knocking on deaths door until he says he was treated with one of these drugs. plus dr. oz, he's here on what we should do to go forward and get back to work as we all stay healthy. also, senate democrats are blocking this really badly needed coronavirus aid package. not everything in it i want, but nevertheless we need some certainty here in to the back and the democrats keep saying no. also, we have a special monday "seen and unseen" with raymond arroyo in new orleans.
7:03 pm
a politician and a celebrity are using the quarantine to promote themselves. if you don't want to miss this. but first, star of the virus, not the economy. that is the focus of tonight's angle. by now we have all become pretty efficient at avoiding dumb things like hugging people, shaking hands, nonessential travel, 6 feet apart, washing our hands, don't touch the gas handle, no face touching, wiping knobs before you touch them, frankly not even touching knobs at all. >> our country has learned a lot, learned about social distancing, learned about the hands, staying awake during the time th this is even a little bt around, this disease or whatever you want to call it.
7:04 pm
>> life in america is on pause in an attempt to stop this virus. we have more than 80 million americans alive, who are staying home due to state orders. that is undoubtedly slowing the spread of this virus, which is a very good thing. more than 550 americans have now succumbed to covid-19, we don't have a breakdown yet of median age or whether they had underlying conditions but we will at some point. of course, we on "the ingraham angle" know every life lost is a tragedy, every life lost is irreplaceable. but we are testing a lot more people, that's a really good thing. we are finding that more americans are infected, as the president noted tonight, we are gathering new data on mortality rates as well. >> the mortality rates, i think we are very substantial in the 1%. it is still terrible, the whole concept of death is terrible. but does a tremendous difference
7:05 pm
between something like 1% and 4 or 5 or even 3%. that is something we are learning now, i think the number may be lower. >> seven days more to go of our national timeout, the president with a multifactor analysis rightly raised the unintended consequences of a prolonged shutdown. >> you can't keep it closed for the next years, this is going away. we are going to win the battle, but we also have tremendous responsibility. we have jobs, people get tremendous anxiety and depression and you have suicides over things like this when you have terrible economies, you have death, probably in far greater numbers that the numbers we are talking about with regards to the virus. >> laura: we all know that
7:06 pm
along with the human death toll of the virus, as the president discussed the economic carnage is mounting. one of my old friends from el salvador called me today and she was crying. her husband lost his plumbing job today. her sister lost her marketing job on friday. >> we are going to save american workers. and we are going to save them quickly. and we are going to save our great american companies, both small and large. this was a medical problem, we are not going to let it turn into a long-lasting financial problem. >> laura: of course, some of the press being the simpletons they are, they want to make this a struggle between dr. anthony fauci of the cdc and the president. >> if we get to next week, you are deciding what to do with these guidelines whether to ease them or institute them for
7:07 pm
another 15 days, will you follow the advice of dr. fauci if they say you should maintain them? >> we will have to make a decision, i certainly listen to them and a number of people. i have a lot of respect for dr. fauci, dr. deborah birx. i will be listening to them and others that are doing a really good job. >> laura: in the end, it is the president who is the one tasked with making the tough calls, that is why he was elected. in peacetime and war time, he has the same responsibility. he gets a lot of input, he convenes a lot of meetings with a lot of smart people and he looks at the data and projections, but the final decision always rests with him. now, we all know that in life there are inherent risks. we live with those every day when we step into our cars, frankly just walk out the front door. it is always a balancing act, and life and in politics between freedom and security. liberty and safety.
7:08 pm
the president is never going to please everybody, never. but america at some point soon, he said, weeks, not months, will have to function again. we have to be a country together again. and a safe. at times like this, we need more, not less input from really smart people. and at times like this, think of preiraq war. it is difficult to be the one questioning the consensus, phenomenal scholars like john unitas or david katz, they are taking a beating for even suggesting that we may need to reconsider some of our initial thinking about this virus and our response to it. they should be heard, along with everyone else, without censorship. the widely respected silicon valley forecaster aaron given has a persuasive and well argued piece on hope and optimism on the virus removed from the internet, it was
7:09 pm
reposted elsewhere. he is being smeared right now by academics. this is wrong. and revealing. the american people in a recent polling, if this is accurate, they came to appreciate the way the president has handled this crisis. day after day, he stood before the press corps answering questions four hours. his love and respect for the american people, for our health care professionals, and our businesses, our workers is evident, shines through. he doesn't want our solution to this crisis to end up being worse than the insidious virus itself. that means everyone has to work together. everyone has to do his or her part. >> i will work with anyone to help the american people, i will. i don't care who it is, i will work with anybody. if i feel i am going to help the american people and the american worker. >> laura: it can the democrats who have held up this latest
7:10 pm
relief/stimulus bill for the last two days, can they say the same? schumer and pelosi has been disgusting, what they have done to american families and american workers. they are holding the country hostage, trying to extract policy concessions like wind and solar subsidies, mail in ballots, early voting for fall, nothing to do, zero to do with covid-19. >> we had a deal, i was pretty sure how to deal last night. at a certain time, about 9:00 i would have told you we pretty much have a deal. then all of a sudden, it changed, it changed fairly rapidly. it would have been bad for our country, they were asking for things that would have not been -- things that bore no relationship to what we are talking about. we can't play that game. >> laura: no, we can't. this isn't a game.
7:11 pm
this is a country, and we are trying to save people, their lives, and any process our freedom, our constitution. we are trying to make hard decisions with the best information we currently have, real data. again, balancing freedom and security, liberty, safety. at the end of it all, we still want a country that has a strong chance of being prosperous and happy again. remember the pursuit of happiness? and that's the angle. joining me now is dr. mamet's, oz, dr. oz, it is great to see you. you have been so busy talking to health care professionals, health care experts, researchers, and specifically we will get into it and just a moment your conversation with one of the renowned french epidemiologists who first broke the story about hydroxychloroquine and the
7:12 pm
trials there. what can we do right now, dr. oz, to keep people safe and keep bringing this level of infection down? that doesn't kill the economy by the way? >> if you look around the world, the most successful has been in south korea. i think the reason they work, i have done a fair amount of research on this, they basically created a digital vaccine. everyone got tested, you have information through a government run out, that tool was used to track where you were going, what you were doing to help you make sure you are being smart about social distancing and quarantining if you are infected, they could track who you were near so they could get tested, and they could contain the virus. as we come through this difficult time, we have to be really meticulous we don't let this grow back again. we want a sophisticated program like they have in south korea. we can do it, all the tech companies in this country, all
7:13 pm
the big boys know how to do this. we have the ability to do more testing smartly. if we can do that together, i think the virus sounds a lot more next time around. >> you are saying that the federal government should work with big tech to track americans movements and punish them if they are not obeying? >> we can't do what they did in south korea, obviously. that is not who we are as a people. i am just mentioning what they did that did work. i would never sacrifice all civil liberties. you understand who you have been around so they can police themselves and make sure they don't infect other people. that is what happened in northern italy, they had big football games, soccer matches and they weren't aware of what a problem this was and by the time they figured it out, it had spread everywhere. >> laura: i want to play a small snippet of a conversation
7:14 pm
you had with one of the leading epidemiologists in europe, a small test group that he convened. six people dropped out for whatever reason, a small test group of individuals treated with that old antimalarial azithromycin. let's watch. >> if you personally had covid-19 virus, would you treat yourself with this combination therapy? >> of course. i would never give it to my patients something that would not work. never. >> laura: dr. oz, there are so many people out there, including on our cable competitors who are rushing to the camera saying you can't do this, it is not approved by the fda. what is your response to that? >> i was intrigued by this physician, he is world famous he is a well-respected within france, some of them are copying his protocol.
7:15 pm
as an infectious disease specialist, he argues if i got rid of all the virus in patients who are treated in this protocol within six days, all the virus gone from their noses, that means they are not infectious anymore. that's a good thing. if i reduce significantly the amount of virus they have throughout the course of treatment, that is a good thing. he assured me that things were looking okay, but he didn't want to share that with me because he hasn't gotten enough data. the question is, will they do clinical trials? yes, we have to do them. i am proud of our american tradition, we have to do the trials that the fda wants. i am helping to fund the one at columbia, there are others, other programs that are starting in this process. we will get it done, but it takes a while. in the meantime, what are we going to do for the doctors who want to treat their patients using prescription drugs who feel that to be back i would argue we can do both, be sure we are doing the right thing,
7:16 pm
but make sure you want to use a drug that is fda approved, off label for indication where there is some evidence not just the french doctor but also in china where there was some evidence of success. we should allow that, tracking all the information, learning what is being done. allow that, otherwise people will do it anyways behind our backs. >> laura: off label use has done everything from late stage cancer to other illnesses as long as the drug is approved and side effects are monitored, especially cardiac applications. here is what an msnbc guest said today about this particular drug combo. >> our public officials want to just go wild with this, and give people untested medications. i personally would not like to be the recipient of something that has not been tested for safety. i think that's true for the majority of our medical team, we
7:17 pm
are desperate for treatment but we don't want our desperation to list down something that might not be good. >> laura: are you concerned about the safety of these medications? >> well, the malaria drug that you mentioned earlier has been used for 65 or 70 years. of course, every drug has potential side effects, in this case cardiac arrhythmia complication but that is often screened for anyway. it seems to be managed in the case of both france and in china, they did not have complications. again, the drug has been used for decades. deepak is an antibiotic that people use quite frequently, are they going to be complications m to 100 million americans? of course, let me be clear on my support of dr. fauci and all the fda to study these drugs. they want to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that they work. what should we do in the meantime?
7:18 pm
>> i had a chance to talk to a number of physicians both here and in europe over the last four or five days, i initially mentioned this one week ago. basically, a lot of them are saying, tell me if you agree, that these drugs are good for a number of reasons because they reduce the need for a number of ventilators that are needed. a lot of people come in with middle-of-the-road or even serious symptoms, then don't need the events that are in short supply. that is also a benefit in addition to obviously the health and well-being of the patient. >> that is one potential benefit, again we haven't proven that. what i do think is based on the data that we have, if we do these clinical trials i would anticipate a reduction in complications, and part the french physician pointed out they get ultrafast ct scans, a third to a half have little lung lesions, marks in their lungs.
7:19 pm
he believes those will be well treated by this combination of drugs. he also pointed out that if you reduce the infectiousness, the six days rather than the 20 days that the chinese were experiencing, that is one-third the infectivity. that is going to dramatically change how it behaves, maybe we won't have to do social distancing for quite as long if we can control the virus better. >> laura: test for antibodies, everyone is talking about that. some people don't get the disease even if they are exposed to it. dr. oz, thank you so much. love your interview with the professor, thanks so much. talk to you soon. >> good luck, laura. >> laura: up ahead, a florida man says he was cured of the coronavirus after taking a drug you may have heard about. he tells us the story in moments. a plus, we will also hear from a doctor who is currently treating covid-19 patients with hydroxyl chloroquine. is it working in his patients? we will find out, next.
7:22 pm

7:24 pm
>> i really thought my end was there. i have been through nine days of solid pain, and for me it was the end was there. so i made some calls to say and my own way goodbye to my friends and family. >> laura: that was a 52-year-old businessman who unfortunately contracted the coronavirus, as you've just heard he thought he was on death's door. that is, until he asked a doctor to prescribe him hydroxychloroquine. after a rough night in the hospital, he woke up in the morning to find his debilitating symptoms gone. he attributes his miracle
7:25 pm
turnaround to the drug we first highlighted right here on "the ingraham angle" a week ago. he joins us now, reo, love your name. i love your whole name. tell us, why do you think it was hydroxychloroquine that he seemed to cure your viral symptoms? >> i am not a scientist, i am not a doctor. but i know i am sitting here in pain, they tried all kind of antibiotics, i continued to get worse. my breathing became worse, speaking became difficult, and a friend of mine from a prayer line reached out, my friend of 43 years said hey, i saw this on laura ingraham show, you need to take this medicine. you need to ask your doctor to get it to you now. it happened that i just had a conversation with my nurse, i
7:26 pm
asked her about it and she went to the doctor and he came in and said basically he couldn't authorize that. but he did put me in touch with the infectious disease doctor, who said yes i know what you are talking about, we have all seen it online. there is no trials, no studies, no guarantee this will work for you. it could possibly hurt you. my feeling at that point in time was i thought i was at the end of my road, and i didn't see any other options. for me, it was worth taking. he heard my story out, authorized it, and 30 minutes later the nurse came in and gave me the first dose. >> laura: wow. a prayer line was involved, i want to highlight that. the prayer line, a friend, a
7:27 pm
communication, and you were a proactive patient. you were your own patient advocate. this drug has been around for almost 70 years, and none of us are doctors, but i am so happy that you seem to be doing so much better. i assume, are you still on the hydroxy customer >> i am, i just took my last dose about an hour ago. i feel fantastic, i have since i woke up on saturday morning. it sounds unbelievable, people are questioning me about it, but i know what i feel, i woke up at 445 in the morning and felt like i had nothing, i had to cut myself and say wait, i am breathing. this is not normal, i realized i didn't have a fever anymore. so i hit the nurse call button,
7:28 pm
and said i am fine. can you send a nurse in, i feel. the nurse came in, took my vitals, and sure enough my fever was gone. it was not able to be broken for nine days and then it was gone at 4:45 in the morning. i just had a headache, that lasted a couple days. but all other symptoms were completely gone. my vitals were back to where they should be. >> laura: first of all, you need to keep in touch with us. i want to track how you are feeling every day, also want to track when you are released from the hospital. can you keep in touch with us? >> definitely, i am expecting to be released tomorrow. >> laura: oh, my gosh. that is fantastic. thank you so much for sharing your story. we wish you all the best.
7:29 pm
>> thank you very much. >> laura: you take care. that was one of the cases that hydroxyl chloroquine may have been involved in saving a life, doctors all over the united states, all over the world, it is their standard of care. they are prescribing it. are they seeing similar results? there are no controlled studies, we know that. we will have them at some point. joining me now is dr. meredith clement, she is an infectious disease expert at louisiana state university's health science center. doctor, you have been treating coronavirus patients with hydroxychloroquine as well. what is your experience been? >> hi, thank you for having me. currently, what the situation in new orleans we have many hundreds of patients currently hospitalized with hydroxyl chloroquine. we have incorporated it into our treatment algorithm. we are using it on patients who
7:30 pm
have mild disease with risk factors, we are using it on some patients who have critical disease and are on a ventilator. but right now, the consensus among all my colleagues is that it is really just too soon to tell. we don't know, and we need to further data, we need to collect clinical data as we are using hydroxyl chloroquine to see if we will see much of a benefit. >> laura: in the process of treating patients, are there other combos or other drugs, we have heard of remdesivir and others that are being tried, or is your standard of care for now in spain and france and pakistan and india, we have had a chance to reach out and talk to physicians, there is not a lot of options. it is what you have now, are
7:31 pm
there other drugs that you see results with? >> so, over the past couple weeks physicians and pharmacists from all the hospitals in new orleans have come together to come up with a protocol to really provide an algorithm to guide physicians in offering treatment. who would coronavirus do we choose to treat, what agent do we use to treat it? the way we allocated it right now is for different groups. patients with very mild disease and no risk factors, we just treat them with supportive care. for patients with more mild disease but with risk factors, we will use hydroxychloroquine. for patients with more moderate to severe disease, we similarly
7:32 pm
are using hydroxyl chloroquine first line and finally for those with critical illness, who are on a ventilator, we have applied more compassionate use of remdesivir while awaiting remdesivir we have no patients on hydroxyl chloroquine as well. >> laura: we will have data, we want to be data driven. we have the small french study, we have some success in china, we obviously have some success in the united states. but we want data. but right now, it is what you have. and you have to use it. you have to use what you have. it's like wartime. we would love for you to keep in touch with us about what you are finding and what you conclude with the information you have, it is helpful to hear that. god bless all of you for working tirelessly in health care at this time. i know it is not easy. thank you so much for what you are doing day by day, we really, really appreciate it. >> thank you, thank you.
7:33 pm
absolutely, we will keep in touch. >> laura: you take care. up next, democrats spent months claiming that trump should be impeached over an alleged quid pro quo to advance his political ambitions. it now, they are holding up a vital economic aid to advance their own agenda. senator mike braun reacts when we return. ations and asks all healthy donors to schedule an appointment to give. now, with the corona virus outbreak, it is important to maintain a sufficient blood supply. your blood donation is critical and can help save lives. please schedule an appointment today. download the blood donor app. visit redcrossblood.org or call 1 800 red cross today. you can make a difference.

7:38 pm
which they choose to block this legislation. last night. tax credits for solar energy and wind energy. provisions to force employers to give special new treatment to big labor, and listen to this, new emission standards for the airlines. are you kidding me? >> laura: democrats in just the last two days have twice killed the senate legislation to get this country going. helping families, businesses. this is all being done because of the covid-19. so, instead what is happening now is democrats are holding up all hostage, the market goes down another 3% today because they are demanding a quid pro quo. it is absolutely disgusting.
7:39 pm
joining me now is indiana senator mike braun, senator ike tweeted out today that people should call the senate and respond to what schumer and pelosi to jam in legislation as part of this package on solar panels, they want early voting because they want everyone to mail in votes because i think that will help democrats, it has nothing to do with this virus. along with a myriad of other little goodies and gifts and giveaways. as people are struggling, i am getting people crying, calling me crying today because their family members are losing their jobs. i am angry, heartbroken, and disgusted. i don't want to take up your time. i am sure you agree. >> it was a week ago on monday, we come back and we get to phase two from the house. it wasn't perfect in our mind, but it was urgent that we did something.
7:40 pm
we offered one amendment, senator scott, johnson and i and a few others, tossing up unemployment insurance. it didn't make it, we got 51 votes. we took it as it was from the house, then got the word late in the week, i have never seen it since i've been here, where you have democrats and republicans working in about four or five task groups. we all thought everything was fine, had it to the point where really i thought we were going to get it across the finish line on sunday evening. then, nancy pelosi shows up in town, starts talking about her own bill, and that is when the rains went from chuck schumer to nancy pelosi. it's been like that ever since. >> laura: if this is just like impeachment, they pulled the same thing in the kavanaugh
7:41 pm
confirmation, always upping the ante, threatening another witness, now it is threatening weather it is a mueller or impeachment, now they are playing politics with the lives of the american public and their ability to recover from what is a catastrophic series of losses. not just for business, but for the mom and pop that are the lifeblood of this country. that is where we are, everyone is watching this tonight, you have to know the president today said he will work with anyone to help the american people. he means that. he means that. and he is working with everybody. >> flora, here is how simple it would be. this afternoon, there were eight or nine of us that went to the floor. the theme of my discussion, we talked about four or five democrats before that, one of the two or three key issues they kept telling me the same one. they were ones that we have been working on and were getting
7:42 pm
close to, it would have been upping a little bit what we are going to do for state and local government, it was for upping the amount a little bit for hospitals the front line of defense against the disease, and then it was to make transparent the package that is going to go to larger businesses. for a guy like me that as an entrepreneur, i was for all those transparency things. they were things that we could get worked out, but they weren't getting to the point and many democrats were getting disgusted with it a month they wanted to focus on the stuff you heard the leader talking about. >> laura: this is christmas tree time. decorate the tree with all your little ornaments, at the end of it no one is going to notice. it is so obvious what is going on, everybody is going to call the senate to make their voices heard. 202, 224, 3121.
7:43 pm
thank you senator, we artie mentioned how democrats are holding the country hostage. they want the handouts, for solar panels, big labor, early voting. but what other little goodies are buried in nancy's 1200 page disaster. here to help us navigate that is a fox news contributor, cam shaft. she said this bill was about helping families, look through this. you flip through different pages, 300 million for the national endowment for the arts? that is nearly double the current budget. what does that have to do with covid-19. covid-19? >> here is a way to look at this laura, they have taken everything that they have been unable to pass in the house over the last year or so. they have decided, okay the country is going down the tube, we must pass a piece of legislation. what about othe to be back bettr
7:44 pm
thing to attach it to then thiso convince the country of? we will have same-day voting, early voting, same-day registration i should say and mail in ballots. the green new deal, airlines fully offset their carbon emissions by 2025, and produce lists that tell customers of every bit of how much they i meant. these are the things that are put in there, i think it is worse than a christmas tree. this is i'm trying to sneak through their otherwise installed and failed agenda. >> laura: thank you. this is what, you had a bit of a breakup. it was almost like a conspiracy of the big government gods. you are back, we will hold you for a second. kim, i want to get into that. we know this is what they are
7:45 pm
going to do, they want early voting, they want voting by ballot, that is a big part of this. they think that is going to help prop up biden. that is what they hope in the end. did we lose can finally? we have the capitol dome, isn't that exciting. thank you so much, we will have you back when it doesn't break up. coming up, a presidential contender, a tarnished pop star, they are using the coronavirus quarantine to promote themselves. can it really be true? the results are disastrous. but you need a little levity at a time like this, raymond arroyo reveals it all in "seen and unseen" next. >> tech: don't wait for a chip like this to crack your whole windshield.

>> laura: it is time for our special edition of "seen and unseen" where we expose the big cultural stories of the day. tonight, a look at presidential candidate and a pop star who are both using the coronavirus to propel themselves. with the details, fox news contributor raymond arroyo. all right raymond, biden surfaced today after a five day hiatus. where was he? >> as we told everybody last week, the biden campaign plan on using this quarantine to their advantage. joe biden was never able to draw bigger crowds during his primary campaign, and he kept his speeches to 10 minutes or so. today, he broke his silence and he did the first of what promises to be a daily coronavirus update. you might call it a dire side chat. from his home i wilmington,
7:51 pm
delaware, it was rocky from the start. >> ready to go? good morning. >> the address went on from there for about 15 minutes, first of all if you are going to do a coronavirus update, don't rub your nose into her eyes and mouth before you start the talk. now, the president went on for nearly two hours in the briefing, biden went on for 15 minutes. early on, haydn chastises the president for using the daily press briefing to launch political attacks. then the former vp used his corona chat to issue political attacks. he praised south korea sophisticated handling of covid-19, but - -- >> we had none of that, the only extreme social distancing measures in place. that is a failure of planning and preparation by the white house. donald trump has not been
7:52 pm
