A Florida man who was diagnosed with the CCP virus claimed that he was saved by an anti-malaria drug that has been touted by the White House, although his doctors have said otherwise.
Rio Giardinieri, 52, told Fox11 that he suffered from a cough, headache, fatigue, and back pain for five days after contracting the virus, saying he may have got it during a conference in New York. He was later diagnosed with the virus pneumonia before he was placed in the ICU and received oxygen.
