How the hell is it the AG's job to spend state funds on unsubstantiated meds?

It’s not snake oil. It simply doesn’t work for what he bought it for.

If I was in charge of his PR, I’d be pushing for him to set up a program to distribute it to patients with lupus - not just in Oklahoma but across the US.

Oklahoma has been attempting to sell its stockpile for months. In the early days of the pandemic, FDA granted hydroxychloroquine emergency authorization for use in very sick COVID-19 patients. However, follow-up studies indicated that the antimalarial drug did not facilitate recovery, nor did it prevent healthy people from contracting COVID-19.

You knew hydroxychloroquine was basically a scam when Trump went on national TV to promote it and actually pronounced it correctly.
