Actually, that story is good evidence that it wasn't hydroxychloroquine that saved him. He got better very quickly after just one dose, and that's not how these drugs work. We would not expect such a fast action. He almost certainly just got better on his own.

This drug wouldn't work that dramatically that fast. That's just not how antiviral drugs work. It's not as though we don't know anything about these drugs. We know a lot. They don't work that fast. He probably didn't even have a therapeutic level in his blood yet.

Concluding this drug “saved" this man is making the same mistake antivaxxers make when they blame vaccines for their child's autism—confusing correlation with causation.

That claim is disinformation promoted by antivaxxers. It's not true.

There's a whole antivax conspiracy theory that China ordered more flu vaccine than usual last fall and that that made them more susceptible to
#COVID19. I was discussing this nonsense nearly two months ago!https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/01/31/2019-ncov-wuhan-outbreakdue-to-failed-coronavirus-vaccine/ …2 replies 1 retweet 3 likes -

I even discussed the study antivaxxers are using to claim that the flu vaccine makes one more susceptible to
#COVID19 and more likely to get severe disease BEFORE they found it!1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
In any event, since January, the antivax claim that the flu vaccine m makes you more susceptible to #COVID19 has been taken up by @delbigtree, @RobertKennedyJr, and other big names in the antivaccine movement and has become Gospel to them. It's a lie.
