As Biden Became President, Medical Journal Quietly Retracted Study That Claimed Hydroxychloroquine Is Ineffective

Their retraction-admission validates what President Trump stated in the very beginning of the pandemic

A leading medical journal has issued a retraction of their endorsement for a study that concluded the anti-viral drug hydroxychloroquine was ineffective against the COVID-19 virus. This retraction appears to validate the claims then-President Trump made about the medication being a frontline drug in the battle in the pandemic.

The Lancet, a respected online medical journal, issued an apology to its readers in an edition last year after the retraction. “We deeply apologize to you, the editors, and the journal readership for any embarrassment or inconvenience that this may have caused,” the publishers of The Lancet said.

Compared to the significantly more expensive medications being used to treat the virus, hydroxychloroquine – a drug widely used to treat malaria – is relatively inexpensive and universally available. Hydroxychloroquine ranges in price from $0.30 to $6.63 per dose depending on location.

Covfefe Coffee The Lancet’s endorsement of the study was withdrawn because the Surgisphere Corporation, the company that provided data, refused to provide full access to the information it based its study on. Peer review medical journals typically engage in third-party peer review to validate the findings.

Covid-19: Lancet retracts paper that halted hydroxychloroquine trials https://t.co/9dWQhm5QLM – What impact did this highly embarrassing “Retraction” by @TheLancet have on the adoption of Hydroxychloroquine as a ‘potential’ effective treatment for #COVID19?

The Surgisphere Corporation said it refused to release the study data because it would violate client agreements and confidentiality requirements, raising questions about the study’s legitimacy.

“Based on this development, we can no longer vouch for the veracity of the primary data sources. Due to this unfortunate development, the authors request that the paper be retracted,” The Lancet said in a statement.

In the now debunked study, researchers concluded that hydroxychloroquine didn’t aid in curbing the COVID-19 virus. It went on to say that the drug caused heart problems and appeared to elevate the risk of death.

The study was immediately embraced by the beleaguered World Health Organization and other groups causing research into the use of the drug to combat COVID-19 to stop.

In seeking a third-party peer review, disturbing questions about the research and the data sets used started to emerge.

“Our independent peer reviewers informed us that Surgisphere would not transfer the full dataset, client contracts, and the full ISO audit report to their servers for analysis as such transfer would violate client agreements and confidentiality requirements,” The Lancet statement said.

The third-party peer reviewers were unable to execute “an independent and private peer review” and, thus, withdrew from the process, the medical journal stated.

There is no estimate of how many lives could have been saved if the World Health Organization and the Center for Disease Control – along with all of the many foundations and institutions who were more focused on the profit margin of vaccines and new drug therapies – would have explored the benefits of hydroxychloroquine in combating COVID-19.

Satan himself is in charge right now. Pure evil. These people from Bezos to the Democrat party to the media and associations like this who conspired are nothing but evil. The number of deaths, lost businesses and damaged people on their wake is grotesque.

Its really amazing.

Is this all a coincidence?

Are they ideologues just independently “working towards the Fuhrer?”

Or is someone/some group literally coordinating every bit of propaganda and political narrative throughout all aspects of society?

This retraction was published June 2020

However many hospitals and state health boards are still refusing patients and doctors the right to try HCQ, citing early eroneous and false studies

1. CDC and FauXi made and patented this virus.

2. They shipped it to a Xi- and Pfizer controlled
release lab in Wuhan.

3. They released it, and when it came FIRMLY to the
USA, Pelosi falsely impeached POTUS (to the day).

4. They lied about prevalence, lethality, and
sensitivity of tests even as CDC withheld the virus

5. BECAUSE CDC and FauXi own the patents to the tests,
to the treatments, and even to viewing the virus.

6. The virus has 4 segments of HIV on it, Pangolin RNA
cleverly mixed with SARS bat RNA.

7. The DNA operating system (of mRNA) [”vaccine”]
is called that in the patents.

8. Why are not they all indicted and sent to GITMO??

9. Same reason NO ELITE is ever prosecuted.

Interesting - seems to me with so many now coming out of the shadows to correct the record on many issues. Companies, organizations etc, were silenced because anything that supported Trump would have caused an avalanche of cancel culture, radical leftist, Marxists, kooks, etc to attack and ruin your reputation.

It was a survival strategy.

One hour after biden was sworn in WHO changed the PCR test criteria to reduce, if not eliminate, false positives and now this.

Is anyone surprised?

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Free everyone else.

The one and only problem with HCQ was that it was three orders of magnitude cheaper than the crony pills.

Everything is always about money always. The fact that it could be used as a cudgel against Trump was just a bonus

No number of corpses was too great, since it got Trump out of office!

As the late Gilda Radner’s clueless Emily Litella character in “Saturday Night Live” (when it was funny) used to say: “Never mind.”

And this very article is one of the reasons I don’t trust National File. Always dig deeper with them as they love to gaslight and mislead. Both the Lancet and post about the WHO linked in that article were from June/July 2020 yet they are trying to tie the retraction to Biden’s election. It’s simply false. I take offense at MSM gaslighting and manipulation, and it needs to be called out in “friendly” publications too. I don’t like being manipulated and you shouldn’t either. That’s what NF is doing here.

The left has no qualms about sacrificing our lives to further their agenda, a power grab to control the whole world.

Complete BS and CYA lie by Lancet — the “study” should have completed the peer review BEFORE publication. The Lancet, Surgisphere, and the persons involved in the decision to publish, are ALL culpable and liable.
