Glad that these results are getting published, but it's still astonishing just how much effort we threw behind a single drug despite many early indications that it was a red herring

We should never really have been in a situation where, simply because it was popular, most of the urgently needed research funds (and patients) went to research a single medication

Not that this is surprising, given how atrocious research incentives are generally, but it's still woeful that there are hundreds (thousands?) of uselessly small HCQ trials out there

HCQ is a miracle drug in that it's somehow aware that it's being used in a trial and immediately stops working. Taking my tongue out of my cheek, I can't believe we're still talking about this 6 months later, more as cases rise. And it's the same grifters pushing it.

I bet there are countless researchers already trying to count it!

It's a waste!
@c_drosten explained on 19 March already why the study was poorly designed, the results overinterpreted, and why one should not expect the mediocre results from HCQ in cell culture to translate to an effective treatment. https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/coronaskript134.pdf …Thanks.
