Is this TIC? This is a recommendation from Nevada Board of Health.

Recommendation not being followed by NV physicians.

No, looking at the FDA and CDC there are no recommendations to date.

SierraCoug

3/25/20 11:16am

It wasn't, the article I originally read was missing a lot of peritnent details

fldnstrm

3/25/20 10:21am

Fair enough

Zoobieman

3/25/20 10:54am

best argument is that he is waiting for the controlled trials to come out before allowing widespread prescriptions
