Mark Meadows in American Crisis

On Health Care: Provide hydroxychloroquine drug test or no hospital funding

Mark Meadows, the White House chief of staff, called me. It was highly unusual for him to call me. When we did meet, he had a general air of negativity around him. When I picked up the phone, Meadows said that they wanted the results from the tests on hydroxychloroquine. I told him, as I told the president, that the tests were being done by the hospitals and when they were complete they would be sent to the FDA. I didn't know how long they took, but no one had any interest in causing any undue delay. Meadows then communicated to me that the federal government was about to send out funding for hospitals and strongly implied that if the tests weren't complete , New York wouldn't receive any funding.
