President Trump Criticizes Fox News for Warning Against Hydroxychloroquine

For weeks President Trump vigorously pushed for Americans to consider taking the malaria-fighting drug hydroxychloroquine, and on Monday the president claimed he was taking the drug to help fight off COVID-19. Trump made the statement offhandedly, inciting a flurry of murmurs from the press corps who seemed to be in disbelief. Trump said he had been taking the drug for a “couple weeks,” and when pressed on why he would take the unproven drug, he said he had “heard great stories” about it.
