    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted The Lancet

    If there’s any justice at all, @Surgisphere will lose all business and go bankrupt. It just handed the #Hydroxychloroquine conspiracy theorists a huge propaganda victory. 1/https://twitter.com/TheLancet/status/1268613313702891523 …

        There are plenty of other observational studies now that strongly suggest #Hydroxychloroquine doesn’t work against #COVID19, and @Surgisphere just gave the cultists and conspiracy theorists a talking point to call them all into doubt in the mind of the public. 2/

        Of course, the randomized clinical trial of #Hydroxychloroquine for the prevention of #COVID19 was published yesterday. It was negative. That’s stronger evidence that the drug doesn’t work. 3/3 https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2016638 …

        Replying to @gorskon @surgisphere

        And damaged the credibity of science in general and the Lancet and NEJM in particular, just what we don’t need in a pandemic. Props to the folks who picked up the anomalies and pursued it. If anything good come of this it will be that all journals demand data transparency.

        The Lancet needs to sit on the block for a bit too.

        The Lancet really should have been shut down after their anti-vax stuff in the late 90s. I know they are prestigious and everything but that was a blunder too far.

        Replying to @gorskon @surgisphere

        Perhaps more importantly: Why does a so-called hcq conspiracy exist in the first place? Why has it been so preposterously politicized, and why would @thelancet risk this kind of damage on propaganda just to reaffirm something apparently proven elsewhere regards HCQ / covid?

        No, absolutly no. Conspiracy theorists have huge propaganda victory because poeple like you don't have the basic critical review job maked... you gambled on an very bad study and you loose, that game!
