Doctors who prescribe an anti-malarial drug being trumpeted as a potential COVID-19 treatment face a $13,000 fine.
New prescription rules, brought into effect in Queensland on Tuesday, mean clinicians are banned from prescribing the drug, hydroxychloroquine, as a COVID-19 treatment.
Hydroxychloroquine is an anti-malarial now used to treat autoimmune conditions such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.
There is no solid evidence it is effective against COVID-19, but federal Health Minister Greg Hunt said there had been “some promising research so far”.GO READ THE WHOLE THING.
What other reasonable conclusion is there, other than, these people hate us?

Follow the money, and give those at the end of the trail a 1/2-to-death beating with a wet flip-flop.
As time goes on we are learning that the Medical profession Western worldwide has become utterly self-serving over a generation. First the Medical Council, then the business, then their colleagues, then public policy, then personal self-interest. Now the patient, oh yes, he pays the costs > you don't think you can organise all this for ourselves without substantial fees do you?
I buy all my medicine in Bangkok now, and I have to take quite a lot back to New Zealand each time for others because Doctors will not prescribe anything vaguely habit-forming or unconventional because of the distant aloof dictatorial Medical Council.
