Former president called anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine a ‘miracle cure’
A drug infamously touted by Donald Trump has been linked to nearly 17,000 Covid deaths in a new scientific study.
Researchers say that the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine was prescribed to patients during the first wave of Covid-19 “despite the absence of evidence documenting its clinical benefits.”
The French study estimated that 16,990 patients in the US, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain and Turkey may have died as a result of the drug.
The study has been published in the February issue of Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy.
Researchers say the data used comes from a study published in the Nature scientific journal, which reported that there was an 11 per cent increase in mortality rate linked to the drug’s prescription.
You're viewing a single thread.
Well technically, dying does eliminate COVID from your body.
This is probably the grossest "um, actually" I've said ever, but I think technically rotting is what eventually gets rid of the covid in your body. A recently deceased person would still "have" covid in them.
Pretty sure it was a joke
It is. I didn't misunderstand it, I just wanted to comment on it.
And you comment was absolutely perfect :D (not being sarcastic).
pee pee poo poo
Did you want me to respond in some way or is this a standalone statement?
I never turn down human interaction, but yes it's a standalone statement.
