dr. wallace to talk about this. he volunteered this to me. he interrupted me when i was asking a different question and asking as a favor to please circulate the reality that the drug is not dangerous. he says we can argue and debate whether or not it's effective, but the danger is usually go away because that's not a reason to not take the medication. what i mentioned what i was calling him about, because he's got a huge practice of people who have lupus on hydroxychloroquine, i wanted to know if any of them got covid-19. i find that it could prevent people from getting sick, lupus patients, depressed, likely sick from covid-19, but he has no patience in his practice and he is part of his experience we are looking at, we've now identified 14,000 people were like his patients. zero of those patients so far have covid-19. i do not want to over interpret that. by working together with cms, and we've got a lot of support from their leadership, the blue cross, blue shield association, i want to get to 100 million americans and confirm what the rh

dr. wallace also put the following in this letter. "the risk of taking 400 milligrams of hydroxychloroquine a day following a single 600 milligrams hydroxychloroquine loading dose is not the normal course of treatment that is being used around the world for covid-19. he said the risk is zero unless one has an allergic rash or upset stomach from it. maybe 5%. okay, he's been prescribing it now in the head of all of these rheumatoid arthritis and lupus organizations, 400 peer-reviewed studies, not a single complication, death, or hospitalization. that would seem pretty clear that the claims that it's dangerous or false. >> so i'm okay -- that is factual for me based on people who have a lot more experience in this area than me or anyone could ever articulate. but i've got to say something. i didn't call him to talk about this. he volunteered this to me and actually interrupted me when i was asking a different question and asked as a favor to please circulate the reality that the drug is not dangerous. he said we can argue and debate abo

dr. daniel wallace. let me read as condensed roles, cedars-sinai medical center los angeles, inherited this largest lupus practice in the united states in 1955. currently cares for 2,000 patients with lupus. a majority of these patients taking hydroxychloroquine. he has authored 400 peer-reviewed papers, written in the lupus textbook, past chairman of the lupus foundation of america and i can keep going on in and with these credentials. he points out, his words, and very safe drug that's been given to tens of millions of a vendor weakens and individuals throughout the world for six to five years, no patients of mine have ever been hospitalized for any publicatios to this medicine and taking 4 milligrams of letter hc queue following 6 milligrams letter hc queue says the risk is nil,unless you. i'm watching people on television and i'm getting attacked and the president's getting attacked that this is dangerous. >> well, i would say this guy knows more than everybody commenting about it and you've been tal

dr. wallace.and his years of experience and what he's seen from this drug. >> maybe if i can, say one thing, that's called the anecdote, it's one person one experience. it's important but it doesn't convince doctors but i keep see ing that word applied to hydrochloroquine and that is an untrue statement if you think that it's only anecdotal data and i've heard it over and over again. there's a case series from published 80 patients and i spoke to that doctor yesterday, and he's on my show today. a thousand patients now he's given this combination of hydrochloroquine with erythromyc in with seven patients out of a thousand and 20 going to the icu and it's unethical not to use the medication until you get a better idea of a better solution i also want to point out there was a randomized trial from china, so i would love folks talking about this medication to stop saying it's anecdotal. it is also but there's also more traditional data we need a bigger trial, dr. fauci is right but in the meantime wh

used for a bunch of reasons one of which is that it's believed to be very safe i was told by a dr dale wallace who is a butt of one of the most prestigious rheumatologist the country heads a cedar sinai program in los angeles that they don't even have guidelines for side effects because they're relatively uncommon but in theory you'd want to watch out for things like the heart which and you know other than that there are some rashes and allergies and the like but because it's believed to be so safe it's used widely and it turns out that it might have an effect against this virus now there's theoretical reason to believe that is to look at and test it with but also different clinicians have noticed that patients with lupus taking this medication don't seem to get the coven 1000 virus as often or if at all in china the initial researchers did notice there was any infection in that patient population so they got excited enough to start to try different clinical trials and they're doing a randomized clinical trial for 62 patients and they showed 6 to 6 a significant improvements in the time to a f

dr. wallace, thank you so much for joining me today.ant to talk about a drug that has been getting a lot of attention lately. it's called hydroxychloroquine. for the folks out there who may not even be family with this drug, tell me a little bit about what it is and what it is originally intended to treat. >> well, hydroxychloroquine, which is also pl plaquenil, has been on the marked since 1965. it's approved by the fda for systemic lupus and rheumatoid arthritis and used for other forms of inflammatory arthritis. it's a very safe drug, nobody's ever died from it, nobody's ever been hospitalized for it. it has been generic for some time, and relatively inexpensive. its mechanism of action is that it raises the ph of the cell, which turns off by making a cell more basic, it turns off inflammatory activity. >> so it's being tested right now to treat patients with phase? >> there have been several small scale reports from france and from china suggesting that it decreases viral replication or reproduction. and this has not been proven. th

dr. daniel wallace. board-certified rheumatologist, cedars-sinai medical center los angeles, inherited the largest lupus practice in the united states in 1985. he currently cares for 2000 patients with lupus. the majority of these patients are taking hydroxychloroquine. he's authored 400 peer-reviewed papers, past chairman of the lupus foundation of america and i could keep going on and on with these credentials. he points out this is in his words a very safe drug that has been given to tens of millions of individuals in the world for 65 years and 42 years of practice, no patient of mine has ever been hospitalized for any complication with this medicine, and he adds the risk of taking 400 milligrams a day following a single 600 milligrams loading dose of 30 to 60 days, he says the risk is nil. unless you have a rational and upset stomach. i'm watching people on television, and i am getting attacked and the president's getting attacked that this is dangerous. i would say this guy knows more than everyone

it and i understand theoretically why it's issue but the rheumatology association representative dr wallace did not think that that was a common problem he said he never had the problem before so i still think you ought to check an e.k.g. just to make sure you're not predisposed to it doctor rolled in france checks an e.k.g. routinely on those patients the 1000 patients he put on this protocol but i think it's more because he's adding the antibiotics pack to it it's not because that hydroxy kora quit and then the question is if we've been giving these drugs so commonly for so many years and not checking e.k.g.'s why now all of a sudden is it such a fearful process regular easy paxman perscribe quite a bit ill many viewers right now would know they got it from a doctor i want to ask themselves how often they have to go to the hospital get e.k.g. before they took it right so if i get why it's a theoretical problem i personally want to check it just to be sure but i'm not sure i don't i don't want to create more problems for america we got enough to worry about if it's really an issue the rheu

dr. wallace who i think obviously he's been prescribing this now as he pointed out 42 years in practice, he's been one of the largest lupus practices in the u.s. currently caring for 2,000 people, most taking hydroxychloroquine. 400 peer-reviewed papers, chairman of the lupus foundation of america, the rheumatoid research foundation of american college, and so many other credentials. he said in 42 years, no patient of mine has ever been hospitalized for hydroxychloroquine and the risk of taking it in the there talking about in no. and he of you have been getting hammered for saying what have you got to lose? they're saying your life. i don't know, he seems pre credible to me, sir. >> president trump: it's been taken for malaria for many years and very effective, it's a powerful medicine and a powerful drug but it's a drug for malaria, for lupus, for those two things in particular. i guess some people say arthritis too, people are okay with it. seems to be with azithromycin that really seems to be the combination that is great, but that could cause a little problem, people don't know, but

dr. king had a a birmingham campaign, and during that year, the beginning of the year, we had governor george wallace announced segregation today, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever. for me it set a tone of i thought he just declared war. we were talking about war anyway and i was like, is this another form of war? but also set the country up to understand what our battle was. that was sort of like a battle cry for us, and dr. king had organized in birmingham, alabama, after coming out of albany, georgia. they were marching -- sort of learned from albany, georgia, not to be as broad in what they were marching for and what the expectations were. they had been organizing with adults, but by april there were not able to mobilize enough adults in the longer and the turn to children. so for me the whole inspiration of this book was the children's march. because as a child watching it on television every night and having my dad could end a birmingham, it became, i wanted to march with the children. i wanted to join the movement in a more substantial way and not just be sort of isolated in stamford,

wallace. another day of indoor life and suspended animation. i have to quickly add, depending on where you live. it was fascinating at the white house briefing yesterday when dr. birx directly confronted by tell us how there's going to be social distancing for massage therapists, tattoo artists and hairstylists. she chose to take a pass. she didn't want to prejudge. the president said he assumed there would be testing for customers going in. nothing of the sort, of course, is available. >> i think for the administration to squander the credibility of one of the two most trusted figures they have -- we've seen polling that suggests that the president and vice president do not enjoy the trust of even what you would think would make up the entirety of their base. their numbers are down in the 30s. tony fauci and the cdc have the trust of upwards of 60% of americans, i think 66 and higher for those two entities. for dr. birx to say, i think even kids understand about social distancing at this point, you can't keep a six-foot distance between yourself and the other person if you're getting a tattoo or haircut was a wasted opportunity. i hope it's not something tha
