A Democratic state representative from Detroit has recovered from coronavirus and she says it was the combination of the drug hydroxychloroquine and President Trump that saved her life.

State Rep. Karen Whitsett's husband is an engineer at Detroit Metropolitan Airport and the two believe they were exposed to COVID-19 through his job.

Whitsett said she started experiencing shortness of breath, sinus issues, and swollen lymph nodes and tested positive for the virus on Monday.

Her doctor prescribed hydroxychloroquine, a drug used to prevent and treat malaria and also used to treat lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and medical conditions.

Trump has touted the use of hydroxychloroquine during his daily coronavirus briefings despite push back from health experts who warn that the drug could potentially be dangerous and its effectiveness against COVID-19 hasn't been proven.

"It has a lot to do with the president ... bringing it up," Whitsett said in an interview with the Detroit Free Press. "He is the only person who has the power to make it a priority."

Whitsett began taking the drug in combination with antibiotics on March 31 and said she started receiving relief in "less than two hours."

Asked whether she thinks Trump may have saved her life, Whitsett said: "Yes, I do," and "I do thank him for that."

Trump tweeted at the freshman lawmaker on Monday saying "Congratulations to State Representative Karen Whitsett of Michigan. So glad you are getting better!"

Whitsett's husband is still awaiting test results from his COVID-19 exam.

2 hours and she was breathing? that's a little faster than normal - normal is like 3-4 hours and you're breathing problems are waning - Trump knows you cannot wait until u have deteriorated - symptoms and a positive test and you immediately start the protocol - but without Trump's touting - her ER doctor won't know what hyroxycloroquinine is for another 60-90 days and she's well into her afterlife

I was listening to Dr. Oz today say that a French doctor is getting all the press for this routine but the French doc says he got the protocol from a Chinese doc - I don't think anyone is not being treated without this protocol now unless the drugs are not available - still, u get little benefit if you let all ur organs deteriorate and then start

Humans have been disagreeing from the beginning of time, I don't see it changing........but during these unstable & hard times, people should come together & help each other.

It's easier said then done.

Libtard filth? that’s a nice way of prefacing your observation.

help us come together.

It's OK to disagree, good and smart people can and do disagree. Their behavior is neither good or smart, it's destructive and one can argue it's borderline criminal.

With every breath they take, our media, the supposed protectors of democracy, lie and distort and spin everything for the sole purpose of dividing us and destroying Trump.

They're enabled by the cheerleaders and the ignorant, like the parrots you see on this forum.

People need to become more informed, learn the nuances of the truth, think for themselves, and stop behaving like assholes

You don’t think that Fox, OAN, Rush, Tucker, Hannity etc
spin the news and conspiracy theories to support trump
and the conservative agenda? Or if you do , then that’s ok?

Does that really answer the question?

I get what you are saying and I’ve stated it before as have others that the environment in which you are raised plays a role....

But, which news outlet is more likely to be accurate??

A CG sighting.

Miss your input, bud.


Why? Just like Enflameo, you could just go to foxnews or the NYpost and get all of the info you needed. This poster is so trash about this shit it’s fun to laugh at.

Kudos to State Rep. Karen Whitsett. Not only is she alive but she has the balls to
break rank and thank Trump.

I'm pretty sure that just got her on her parties shit list.
