      I disagree. Dr. Raoult should absolutely be held responsible for that.

      The reality is that the public pressure has also played a role in giving a groundswell of support to an unproven intervention known to cause harm

      Know to cause harm, chloroquine? Go tell that to the people who had malaria in 2018: 228.000.000 according to WHO. Sorry, this is nonsense.

      Yes benefit>>harm for prevention & treatment of malaria That is correct for that indication

      Replying to @kenpcg @oceankoto and

      Exactly. There's no demonstrated benefit from treating #COVID19 with #Hyrdroxychloroquine; so it's all risk, no benefit for that indication.

      The pr Raoult's protocole that you try to kill is HCQ + Azithromycine and before the symptoms are very severe (hence the interest of the tests). Not HCQ alone. Chloroquine has been prescribed since 1940. I'm not sure, but I think it kills less than Covid... Up to you!

      No high quality evidence that HCQ w or w/out any other add-ons is of benefit in the treatment of Covid19.

      Correct, and there is, increasingly, evidence that it could be harmful.

      No one forces you to take it! But ... I'm starting to wonder about your motivations. Don't tell me you care about the health of mankind.

      Thanks for the ad hominem attack Doing good does not equate to ‘doing something or anything’

      Correct. The ad hominem attack is expected, though. That's the way these discussions with #HydroxychloroquineAndAzithromycin cultists always end up going.

          You know well what is an ad hominem attack, as you don't stop insulting a scientist with who you don't agree. BTW Did Trump supports HCQ?
