I do not think he was trying to talk rubbish, or act like a 'troll'
However, we all need to know about & share current knowledge.
Glenn, thanks but you're wasting your time there. I think the key phrase is 'troll' (malicious motive.) Or perhaps shill (someone with a deceptive, possibly wage-related motive) or just plain comprehension impaired.
But since we're here...
Your GP, if he exists, is as much a cowboy as you are.
Lead with a personal insult, always a good sign of honest intent. If my GP doesn't exist, that's a great photoshop of a prescription, don't you think? Cropped to protect identities. Yes, his typing really is that bad. Pretty funny. I like the guy btw, so feel doubly insulted.
And the letter, thanking someone with no medical authority for something they haven't done
ONE inconsequential line in a two page letter, and it's the only thing you single out? Plus you're wrong, he specifically did push for testing of hydroxychloroquine, as President, backed by the medical authority of his advisers. And then who tried to block that? Three Dem state governors, "with no medical authority" and no legal authority either, since the FDA/CDC had authorized it.
Meanwhile you ignore the entire rest of the letter, relating a quite large scale ad-hoc demonstration of the stated drug combination's effectiveness. Why? It's just one of several such btw, but I saw no reason to list them all. Though you can find them among the references I provided.
and using you as a reference, is a joke..
This is where we cross into mental retardation territory. Did you seriously not comprehend that the links on page 2 of the PDF, under the ruler and in different font, are added by me? I didn't explicitly state that, since it didn't occur to me that anyone would be so dense as to not see that as obvious. Quite apart from all the linked materials having dates subsequent to the letter.
Anyway, the first link is to an article reviewing the chemistry and history of quinine derivatives and their use. By an Australian academic chemist. It's quite interesting. But that's OK, no need to thank me for mentioning it.
That and the others are my footnotes of relevant sources, for only those with inquiring minds, discernment, and initiative to download the PDF.
I still can't decide if you're a troll or really believe what you spout.
Sorry, I'd have to get off my trusty silver steed and coil up my lariat to explain especially for you. But I doubt the effort would be productive. Bye.
