His wife is in critical care. Both are in their 60s.
The chemical chloroquine phosphate is commonly used to clean fish tanks.
During a press conference on Thursday, President Donald Trump touted chloroquine as showing "very, very encouraging early results" in treating COVID-19 and falsely stated that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was working "to be able to make that drug available almost immediately." The drug has been used to treat malaria.

More of a confirmation of the so-called "Darwin Award Winner".
