The World Health Organization is temporarily suspending the use of hydroxychloroquine from its global study into experimental treatments for the coronavirus.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a news briefing Monday that a study published last week showed those taking hydroxychloroquine had a greater risk of heart problems and death.

From the Indian equivalent of the CDC:

Revised advisory on the use of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) as prophylaxis for SARS-CoV-2 infection
https://www.icmr.gov.in/pdf/covid/techdoc/V5_Revised_advisory_on_the_use_of_HCQ_SARS_CoV2_infection.pdf

800mg to start, 400mg a week, don’t take it if you have heart problems or some other issues, basically.

Well, the desired Global inflation is happening.

Last month an HCQ pill was only 10 cents. Now it’s 65 cents.

Get it while your money is still worth something!

Before the Corruptocrats do another $3 Trillion for Planned Parenthood or something.

Special adviser to the director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Ezekiel Emanuel

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11055506/world-health-organization-official-lashes-out-at-donald-trumps-incoherent-ignorant-coronavirus-response/

A TOP WHO adviser has claimed Trump made “ignorant” and “incoherent” remarks during a news conference detailing the administration’s response to the coronavirus outbreak.

Special adviser to the director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Ezekiel Emanuel - a key figure in the creation of the controversial ObamaCare program, claimed on left-leaning MSNBC’s Hardball that Trump’s comments indicated how little the president knew about public health.

Ezekiel Emanuel, MD, PhD, Leave of Absence as Chair of Medical Ethics & Health Policy
May 29, 2019

During his leave of absence from his chair role, Zeke will work with colleagues to launch the Health Transformation Institute (HTI) in the department, a new initiative aimed at increasing the value of the U.S. healthcare system through new innovations designed to improve quality, affordability and the patient experience.

Zeke will also be taking on a role as Senior Advisor to the Director General of the World Health Organization, an opportunity in which he will provide direction for the organization’s Universal Health Care initiative, particularly in the areas of screening and care for cancer in low-income countries and its medical ethics program. He will also help devise strategy for the WHO Academy, a training initiative for 10 million public health professionals across the globe.

Really?

I haven’t hear about the thousands of people dying from taking this and the Veterans Administration distributes more than 1 million pills a month and has for decades

I’d say the date for testing is long past....

It cured Mr. Klobuchar, just like I said it did a month ago.

He went into the Univ of Minnesota Hydroxychloroquine trial.

They mailed the medication. He never had to leave the house.

And yes, it eliminated her from Biden's VP contention, although she was never no. 1 on that list. She was the 'go-to-if-all-else-fails' candidate, but now that's Karamela.

They’re stopping the tests to LOOK FOR problems.
They don’t have proof of any, just some bad studies.

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/25/world-health-organization-pauses-study-of-hydroxychloroquine-in-global-trial-280264

The executive committee of the WHO’s Solidarity trial met on Saturday, said WHO Chief Scientist Soumya Swaminathan, and decided “in the light of this uncertainty that we should be proactive, err on the side of caution and suspend enrollment temporarily into the hydroxychloroquine arm.” (Chloroquine is not part of the trial.)

The meeting came a day after the Lancet published the largest observational study of the malaria drugs to date, and as some national regulators began expressing concern about using the drug.

Soooo obvious what’s going on. This is a drug commonly given to pregnant women. Suspend WHO funding permanently.

It does not matter. It will be blacklisted by the local pharmacists in the neighborhood. They will refuse to dispense it. Period. Period. Period. (As Biden would say).

$0.04 in India but $0.65 in the us. I suppose a hospital would charge $65.00

Looks like they want to make not getting money from us permanent. I think that’s the way it should be anyway.

Every single one of these studies specifically selects usage that ignored Dr. Raoult's insistence on D0 & D2 EKG / ECG and immediate elimination of those people from the study.

"Dr. Raoult from the beginning prescribed ECG D0 & D2, and the very few who could not handle HCL were immediately removed from the trial.

"QT interval addressed by Prof #DidierRaoult's successful #Hydroxycloroquine protocol, insists on baseline ECG, any QT prolongation excluded.

"Treatment was either not started or discontinued, when QTc (Bazett’s formula) was >500ms."
