Why is a news article about a 44 year old drug on Hacker News?
As far as I can tell this isn't about tech, tech policy, a new medication, a new discovery about an old medication, science, etc. Seems like its just fodder for a political debate that is unrelated to this site.
Instead of politicizing HN, why don't you just toot this to your echo chamber on Mastodon?
