=== Hydroxychloroquine Hoarding (02:42) ===

[00:00:00]  I read, and I have it in my files, months ago, that doctors themselves were buying up, the word used was hoarding, hydroxychloroquine.
[00:00:14]  Are you familiar with that in any way?
[00:00:16]  Oh, of course.
[00:00:18]  Yeah, of course.
[00:00:18]  The same thing happened when we were told that influenza was going to, you know, take over the world and people were buying.
[00:00:28]  Influenza drugs.
[00:00:29]  And this was a few years back.
[00:00:32]  And so, of course, it's happening.
[00:00:33]  I know doctors that are personally taking hydroxychloroquine in preventative doses, especially those that are working in the hospitals and they're constantly coming in contact with COVID-19.
[00:00:43]  But you can't say that if a doctor speaks out and says that.
[00:00:47]  You're called crazy.
[00:00:49]  You're called like I am.
[00:00:50]  I'm a quack.
[00:00:50]  I'm not a real doctor.
[00:00:52]  My license should be taken away.
[00:00:53]  And not only me, my family, my wife is attacked.
[00:00:57]  Now we're coming up to how do we get the kids back in school?
[00:01:02]  Well, I don't know.
[00:01:03]  Let's make a big political deal about this.
[00:01:06]  Kids are at such low risk.
[00:01:08]  A child has a 50 times higher risk of drowning than they do of dying from COVID-19.
[00:01:14]  A child has a greater risk of dying in a car crash going to school than they do of COVID-19.
[00:01:21]  But we're going to go through all these machinations.
[00:01:23]  We're going to require kids to wear face coverings.
[00:01:26]  Which I think is tantamount to abuse, if you will.
[00:01:31]  And this is all being driven by union power and politics, not by healthcare, science, and the truth, unfortunately.
[00:01:40]  Well, by scared teachers.
[00:01:42]  By scared teachers, too.
[00:01:44]  Absolutely.
[00:01:45]  And their unions.
[00:01:46]  Yes, that's why when you said unions, that's what I was thinking.
[00:01:49]  America is not recognizable to those of us who are older and remember it.
[00:01:55]  No, it's not.
[00:01:57]  You know, you used to use this term, and I sort of agree and shrug my shoulders, and that is we're in a nonviolent civil war.
[00:02:07]  You are absolutely correct.
[00:02:09]  This is a civil war.
[00:02:11]  It's a civil war for our country.
[00:02:13]  It's a civil war for liberty.
[00:02:15]  Thank God it's not violent.
[00:02:16]  At least it's not violent on our side, but it certainly is on their side.
[00:02:22]  And boy, you know, they push us much harder.
[00:02:25]  And disaster is ahead.
[00:02:28]  We need to fight for our country, unfortunately.
[00:02:30]  And we're doing so with our words right now.
[00:02:33]  And I hope that message gets out.
[00:02:35]  Well, it is.
[00:02:36]  And I'm going to refer to you again.
[00:02:39]  Thank you, Dr. Barkey.
[00:02:41]  Thank you, Dennis.
