No. It actually is not. A retrospective study of mortality is a VERY legit medical question. Thousands of papers are published. We have a “tailor made” retrospective study of mortality that could be done form the 2,000 cases of seriously ill and dead. You can’t tell me none of them were on Plaquenil a month ago. What has happened to them is a very legit question to ask and the answer can be known in milliseconds.
