If it’s as dangerous as they claim, where are all the sob stories? All it would take would be one.
It’s not dangerous at all. They are blaming the side effect of azithromycin, which does on occasion cause QTc Prolongation which can lead to tachycardias such as torsades de pointes, on hydroxychloroquine.
There’s a two front war on hydroxychloroquine from both the left, because of their hatred for Trump, and the medical bureaucracy because there’s no money in it. Look how fast they’ve jumped on Remdesivir which reportedly is much less safe than hydroxychloroquine and seems to do very little to help... but costs anywhere from $2,000 to $4,500 for a full treatment regimen for someone with covid-19. Using hydroxychloroquine and zinc cost less than $20

Side Effects
‘Hydroxychloroquine typically is very well tolerated. Serious side effects are rare. The most common side effects are nausea and diarrhea, which often improve with time. Less common side effects include rash, changes in skin pigment (such as darkening or dark spots), hair changes, and muscle weakness. Rarely, hydroxychloroquine can lead to anemia in some individuals. This can happen in individuals with a condition known as G6PD deficiency or porphyria.”
“In rare cases, hydroxychloroquine can cause visual changes or loss of vision. Such vision problems are more likely to occur in individuals taking high doses for many years, in individuals 60 years or older, those with significant kidney or liver disease, and those with underlying retinal disease. At the recommended dose, development of visual problems due to the medication is rare. It is recommended that you have an eye exam within the first year of use, then repeat every 1 to 5 years based on current guidelines.’
“Additional rare reports of changes in the heart rhythm have been reported with the use of hydroxychloroquine, particularly in combination with other medications. While monitoring for this risk is not typical in the office setting, it has been indicated in hospitalized and critically ill patients to evaluate for interactions with other medications.’
And if you want to understand why hydroxychloroquine absolutely does work, not in tandem with azithromycin, but when partnered with zinc, you should also watch this:
