A Democratic Michigan state representative said that the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine and President Donald Trump helped save her life as she battled COVID-19.
State Rep. Karen Whitsett said she tested positive for the CCP virus, commonly known as novel coronavirus, and began taking hydroxychloroquine on March 31, which was prescribed by her doctor. Both Whitsett and her husband had sought to treat a number of virus-related symptoms on March 18, she told a local newspaper.
