Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis placed an order for a million doses of hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malaria drug that doctors across the United States are using to treat COVID-19 patients.

“One of the No. 1 questions we’ve been getting in the state of Florida is what treatments are available,” DeSantis said at a press conference on Tuesday. “One of the things that physicians have been using is this hydroxychloroquine, usually combined with with Z-Pack.”

Opinion: Michigan’s doctors fight coronavirus, and governor's offiice

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs literally threatened all doctors and pharmacists in the state who prescribe or dispense hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19.

The agency’s March 24 letter warns physicians and pharmacists of professional consequences for the prescribing of hydroxychloroquine (and chloroquine). Beyond the rational recommendation against hoarding as production of this medication needs to be ramped up, the letter deviates into open threats of “administrative action” against the licenses of doctors that prescribe hydroxychloroquine.

The letter also instructs pharmacists to ignore physician orders for this medication. Due to the debate over a pharmacist’s right to refuse to fill medications that go against their religious beliefs, this could place pharmacists in the unprecedented position of being told that they must fill prescriptions that violate their “conscience (religious belief)” but must not fill prescriptions to treat COVID-19.
