Ensure People Living With Lupus have access to their medication
The Issue
Lupus Patients require hydroxychloroquine to stay healthy and keep flare ups at bay. Supplies are already running low to those who need it most. Please vote to insure that Lupus Patients have their medication supplies. According to the Lupus Foundation of America: " At this time, it is not possible to predict the full scope and duration of the impact the coronavirus pandemic will have on the supply of hydroxycloriquine. We are investigating the supply issue and will report to our constituents through our website as more information becomes available." further "There is no evidence that taking hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) or chloroquine (Aralen) is effective in preventing a person from contracting the coronavirus, so people who are not already taking this medication do not need to start it now. People with lupus should follow the guidance of their doctor and the safety guidelines being issued by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for people with compromised immune systems." Please support those who need this medication on a daily basis.
