Trump mentioned ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine so the blue lefties now hate them and refuse to use them. I'll bet you live in a blue lefty shithole city and state.

No, this had nothing to do with Trump mentioning the medicines. That just gave them a new weapon to use to suppress working medicines. They were suppressed because they worked and they couldn't get emergency use authorization for deadly mrna drugs as long as treatments exist.

I do think trump saying things is part of it, to get a majority of scientists and doctors to deny the use of something that they know works. Scientists are on record saying they denied the lab leak theory because Trump said it and they didn't want to be cancelled for appearing to support him.
