1/ Korea posted their treatment guidelines utilizing hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for covid-19 on Feb 13th.
China& #39;s Head of Biotech said that chloroquine was selected out of tens of thousands of drugs as the most effective treatment on Feb 17th. https://twitter.com/cryptonephilim/status/1242537126261977088">https://twitter.com/cryptonep...

3/ Here is the case fatality rate in Marseilles where ~3000 patients have been treated with hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin.
In Marseille, the mortality rate is 1.5% for those treated late and 0.4% for those treated early compared to the global mortality rate of ~6%.

4/ Italy announced that they would begin mass treatment with Hydroxychloroquine on March 29th.
This coincides with the peak of their deaths per day.

5/ Bahrain began using hydroxychloroquine two days after the first case of Covid-19 was discovered there in February.
They did this based on "notable success in China and South Korea."
Now they have one of the lowest case fatality rates in the world.

Both articles refer to studies without randomized control groups.

16/ This will be a compilation of the various anecdotal stories of hydroxychloroquine success.
The fact is that the FDA and media are now discouraging randomized controlled trials of hydroxychloroquine based on the non-randomized retrospective UVA study. This is disturbing.

21/ You can find the truth about the low risk profile of hydroxychloroquine if you look it up on the CDC website.
Nonetheless, I still hear major media figure and even
@joerogan repeating the media& #39;s narrative that it& #39;s dangerous and kills.
