Here it is: The only controlled trial using #Chloroquine to treat #COVID19 - from China - finds zero benefit compared to placebo. Zip, nada.
In other words, @realDonaldTrump --it does NOT work.

Replying to @Laurie_Garrett @realDonaldTrump
Mimetic Contagion Retweeted Laurie Garrett
The paper you linked is an evaluation of hydroxychloroquine sulfate in comparison to conventional treatment consisting of antivirals, oxygen, etc. Chloroquine phosphate was not mentioned in the study. Conclusion was that a bigger sample size is needed.https://twitter.com/Laurie_Garrett/status/1242679167898058752 …

Your tweet is misleading, because the control group is not receiving a placebo. The control group was receiving other treatments, but not hydroxychloroquine. Chloroquine phosphate was not mentioned in the study at all. The conclusion is that we need more data, not it doesn't work
