Local governments are hoarding more than 100 million doses of the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, which studies worldwide show to be an effective early treatment of coronavirus patients, according to the Association of American Physicians & Surgeons.
"Medication is not doing anyone any good sitting in a government warehouse," said AAPS executive director Dr. Jane Orient. "This hoarding by government means that most of that medication will probably expire without ever being used."
