During a segment with Fox News host Tucker Carlson, Dr. Marc Siegel shared an incredibly moving story on how a 96-year-old man recovered from the coronavirus, thanks to hydroxychloroquine treatment. That man is his father.

Hydroxychloroquine has been touted by President Donald Trump (very early on) as a possible means to treat patients suffering from the coronavirus.

The media has spent countless hours —first denouncing President Trump as a liar and a quack, and now saying he must have a personal stake in the drug company— trying to steer people away from the drug.

Because Americans recovering thanks to the advice of the president would be a bad thing in the media’s collectively warped little heads.

In the following incredible video footage, you’ll see that Dr. Siegel didn’t let on who he was talking about initially, making the story that much more powerful. “Tucker, I want to tell you about a 96-year-old man in Florida who said one night, ‘I don’t think I’m going to make it. I feel very weak. The end is coming. I’m coughing. I’m short of breath. I can’t get up from the couch,'” Dr. Siegel began. “The next day he was on hydroxychloroquine and antibiotics per his cardiologist,” Siegel added. “He got up the next day he was fine.” He punctuated his poignant story: “This man is my father.”

Dr. Siegel’s personal story counters the mainstream media’s desperate attempts to dissuade victims of the coronavirus pandemic from using a medication the president has recommended. So desperate have they been to stop positive stories of the drug’s effects that they falsely accused Trump of being complicit in the death of an Arizona man after he and his wife ingested fish tank cleaner with a similar name. One Democrat lawmaker threatened to refer President Trump to an international court for “crimes against humanity.”

Some Democrat governors blocked their own state residents from accessing the drug. Now, these lunatics are suggesting he be impeached for promoting the drug. I don’t use that word lightly. These people —Democrats, media, celebrities— calling for the president to be impeached for promoting a drug that may save lives are certifiable, weapons-grade lunatics.

Do you think Democrats listen to the American people?

Dr. Siegel is just one of many Americans who have conveyed positive stories involving hydroxychloroquine. Karen Whitsett, for example, a Democrat State Representative in Michigan, said she was “terrified” after being diagnosed with the coronavirus. She sought a prescription for the drug, took it, and recovered within hours. Asked whether she thinks President Trump saved her life, Whitsett said, “yes, I do,” and “I do thank him for that.”

Lisa Smarra in Pennsylvania claimed her 76-year-old father Bob is improving after being treated with hydroxychloroquine. Smarra explained that she first heard about the drug from President Trump. “It’s amazing,” she said. “I love my dad so much…I am so happy that he’s OK.”

And David Lat, an author and legal commentator, survived the coronavirus and said, “my mother, a pathologist, is firmly convinced that [hydroxychloroquine] saved my life.” These are just a handful of stories about hydroxychloroquine. Bottom line: President Trump is saving lives. It’s reprehensible that some Democrats and the media are attacking him for it.
