I did a double-take. I could not believe that I was reading it. That story now has jumped from the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/08\/08\/nyc-councilman-credits-hydroxychloroquine-for-covid-19-recovery\/\">New York Post<\/a> to TheBlaze.com. Here\u2019s the headline of the story: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theblaze.com\/news\/councilman-hydroxychloroquine-saved-life-coronavirus\">Democratic NY City Councilman Says Hydroxychloroquine Saved His Life<\/a>, Thanks Trump for Advocating Drug &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Democratic New York City Councilman Paul Vallone credits hydroxychloroquine with saving his life as he fought against the lethal respiratory disease. Vallone, who represents Queens, told the New York Post that [hydroxychloroquine] &#8216;basically saved me.\u2019 Vallone was extremely ill with coronavirus in March. The situation was dire because he already suffers from sarcoidosis, an incurable auto-immune disease that mostly affects the lungs and lymph glands.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-359860\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/APPPAULVALLONE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/APPPAULVALLONE.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/APPPAULVALLONE-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/APPPAULVALLONE-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;We were in panic mode when I went down because I didn\u2019t have a lot of immune response,\u2019 Vallone said. &#8216;I needed something to stay alive.\u2019 &#8216;I couldn\u2019t breathe, very weak, couldn\u2019t get out of bed,\u2019 he said. &#8216;My doctor prescribed it,'&#8221; hydroxychloroquine, back in March. &#8220;&#8216;My pharmacy had it. Took it that day and within two to three days I was able to breathe.\u2019 Vallone took hydroxychloroquine with a flu Z-pack and &#8216;within a week\u2019 he was back on his feet.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;At that time, there was only fear and panic,'&#8221; again, this is in March, folks. Back then &#8220;there was only fear and panic. He offered hope&#8230;'&#8221; He\u2019s talking about Trump here. &#8220;&#8216;[H]e offered hope in a possible treatment when there was none,\u2019 Vallone said of Trump\u2019s endorsement of hydroxychloroquine. &#8216;With my sarcoidosis and then my COVID symptoms, it basically saved me. For that my family will always be thankful.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>You may recognize the name. His brother, Peter Vallone, &#8220;a former city councilman and a current civil court judge in Queens, touted the drug in a Facebook post.&#8221; So both of these Vallone guys &#8212; big-time New York Democrats &#8212; are touting hydroxychloroquine and thanking Trump for recommending it. I can\u2019t believe this, because, folks, there is a massive effort&#8230; You don\u2019t know. (Maybe you do.) There\u2019s a massive effort to deny the hydroxychloroquine story.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-347404\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APPHYDROXYCHLOROQUINE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APPHYDROXYCHLOROQUINE.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APPHYDROXYCHLOROQUINE-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APPHYDROXYCHLOROQUINE-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There is a massive effort to suppress it.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a massive effort to bury every one of these types of stories that surfaces.<\/p>\n<p>This one made it.<\/p>\n<p>This one made it through and was published over the weekend in the New York Post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: There&#039;s a massive effort to bury every one of these types of stories that surfaces.
