Monday morning, I was listening to another one of Noem& #39;s speeches and I had to stop bc I just got so angry. Instead of shutting down the state and issuing a shelter in place order, which she& #39;s not doing for some bizarre reason, she started a clinical trial on hydrochloroquine.
There is evidence that it does treat Malaria and autoimmune disorders, but there isn& #39;t enough sufficient evidence to suggest that it helps treat Covid-19. Noem also forgets to take into account the severe side effects of hydrochloroquine.
Ik that a clinical trial is about showing the safety and efficacy of medications. That being said, she& #39;s doing it not just in the areas that have been hit the hardest in the state, but statewide.
Alongside ignoring the demand to shutting down the state and issuing a shelter in place order, and ignoring evidence that doing so actually does work in combating Covid-19. If Noem is going to shut down the state (and/or issue a shelter in place order), it might be too late.
I& #39;m hoping she does so before that happens. But most likely, she& #39;s going to blatantly ignore reality until that happens. The main reason as to why she hasn& #39;t done so yet is bc she said that we aren& #39;t NY, and that we& #39;re different than other states.
Taking into account differences in pop., we& #39;re not that far behind from NY. And this was from one of the previous speeches she& #39;s made.
I& #39;ve been biting my tongue on this for a while now, and I& #39;ve been trying to avoid talking about anything vaguely political. But this time around it& #39;s not about taking about politics rn. It& #39;s about saving lives and minimizing the amount of deaths.
Like I said, I don& #39;t usually post really serious stuff like this. I usually would post artwork I make, geek out about stuff I like, craft stuffs, my cats, or other projects or stuff that I make.
But I& #39;ve had to write all of this out bc she really isn& #39;t doing anything about this besides ignoring it rn.
If I do have anything else to add, I& #39;ll probably add it to this thread. Frn, stay home, practice social distancing, and wear a face mask if you have to go outside. Stay safe peeps!
