Here's a good analogy:

You're stuck in battle, in a foxhole with a sucking gut wound. The medic arrives and says" Hey, I have this bandage that's been bouncing around in my pack for two weeks, it might not be perfectly clean. Do you still want me to apply it? Or I can travel 2 miles back across the battlefield to the field hospital and get a perfectly clean one , but you have a good chance of dying before I get back.

Trump, French Researchers, Indian Gov' and several US physicians: "Apply the bandage you got".

Most of the media, the FDA, some of Big Pharma and several Governors: "Run back to the field hospital and get the perfectly clean bandage. Try not to get killed in the process and I will try not to die while I wait".
