Don’t trust Trump’s coronavirus ‘cure,’ says widow of man poisoned by chloroquine

A newly widowed Arizona woman in intensive care is urging Americans to take medical advice from doctors — and not U.S. President
Donald Trump — after her husband died from swallowing a form of
chloroquine the POTUS touted as a
coronavirus “game-changer.”
The woman and her husband, both in their 60s, were rushed to hospital after ingesting chloroquine phosphate on Monday, according to a statement from
Banner Health in Phoenix, Ariz. The man died in hospital and the woman remains in intensive care.
The woman told
NBC News that she and her husband tried chloroquine because they heard President Trump talking about it as a powerful drug for fighting the coronavirus during a recent press conference.
The woman says she and her late husband tried a type of chloroquine after Trump called the drug a 'game-changer' for coronavirus.
