@ccachor2: The study looked at both hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, but in separate groups.

Hydroxychloroquine showed worse survival and more đź’” toxicity than chloroquine. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)31180-6/fulltext

Nope! Wrong take, @ZwyerAlex & @Rand_Simberg.

The study only included patients that received hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine within 48 hours of diagnosis.

It excluded ones that started the drugs after being put on ventilators. These were early patients.
