From the March 19, 2020, edition of Fox News' The Ingraham Angle

LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): But perhaps the best news of all is about a drug I brought to your attention on Monday night. Now at first, it kind seemed to me -- I'm a little skeptical of it. It seemed too good to be true, but the results France and China and beyond have been nothing short of impressive.

...

INGRAHAM: Well, The Angle's persistence paid off because today President Trump made this announcement.

(VIDEO BEGINS)

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: A drug called chloroquine, and some people would add to it “hydroxy," hydroxychloroquine. It is known as a malaria drug, and it's been around for a long time, and it's very powerful. It's shown very encouraging -- very, very encouraging early results. And we're going to be able to make that drug available almost immediately.

INGRAHAM: Now after this happened, the drug company Bayer donated 3 million of the pills of this particular drug to the Trump administration. Now although the FDA has not approved the drug for use as a treatment for COVID-19, doctors here can still prescribe it.
