Stella Immanuel, a Nigerian-trained doctor based in the
United States, has queried US President Donald Trump on why he did not use
hydroxychloroquine to protect himself from COVID-19.
Immanuel, who once claimed she administers coronavirus
patients with the anti-malarial drug, said the US president could not have
contracted the virus if he was taking it.
In July, the doctor stirred a controversy when she said she
has treated over 350 COVID-19 patients with hydroxychloroquine.
“I’m here because I have personally treated over 350
patients with COVID-19…. I think my oldest patients are 92. We have not lost
one patient. And the result has been the same,” she had claimed.
“I put them on
hydroxychloroquine, I put them on zinc, I put them on Zithromax, and they’re
all well. For the past few months, after taking care of over 350 patients,
we’ve not lost one. Not a diabetic, not somebody with high blood pressure, not
somebody with asthma, not an old person.”
On Thursday, Trump, who also promoted the anti-malarial drug
as a potential cure for COVID-19, announced that he had contracted the virus
alongside his wife.
Commenting on the US president’s tweet announcing his
diagnosis, Immanuel said hydroxychloroquine and related drugs would have
protected him.
She wrote: “Sir, you exposed the effectiveness of HCQ to us.
Why did you and FLOTUS not take it for prevention?
“You did not need to get covid19. HCQ, zinc, Vit C and D and
you will not get sick.”
The doctor, however, added that she is praying for the US
president and his team.
