Other articles regarding this story have brought to light that this couple purchased an aquarium cleaner that contained Chloroquine. They bought it at a pet store to use as a preventative against Covid-19. They grossly misunderstood. The toxic ingredient they consumed was not the pharmaceutical form of chloroquine, used to treat malaria in humans. Instead, it was an ingredient listed on a parasite treatment for fish. What in the world were they thinking?!
“A man has died and his wife is under critical care after the couple, both in their 60s, ingested chloroquine phosphate, an additive commonly used at aquariums to clean fish tanks. Within thirty minutes of ingestion, the couple experienced immediate effects requiring admittance to a nearby Banner Health hospital,”
