People who claim they were cured of coronavirus by hydroxychloroquine have come forward in support of doctors who have been "attacked" for saying the controversial drug works.
Dr Stella Immanuel, one of the doctors who went viral for saying she'd cured COVID-19, took to Twitter to ask for people's help, with friends and family of survivors also coming forward.
"We are being attacked, ridiculed and discredited," she said.
"We need our patients to SPEAK UP. If you have been cured by this drug, share your story online using this hashtag. #HCQWorks."
The Houston GP said she had successfully treated more than 350 coronavirus patients with hydroxychloroquine, zinc and Zithromax, an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections.
Hydroxychloroquine is used for treatment of malaria and certain auto-immune diseases but doctors have claimed it works for Covid-19.
It's also gained the support of President Donald Trump and other politicians.
In Australia its use for treatment of Covid-19 is considered "off-label".
"There is currently no clear data to inform clinical guidance on the use, dosing, or duration for COVID-19 treatment," the Therapeutic Goods Administration says.
Chris Milburn was one of the survivors who came forward in reply to Dr Immanuel's tweet and others from the group calling themselves America's Frontline Doctors.
The 58-year-old retired Deputy Sheriff from Columbus, Ohio, said he tested positive for coronavirus on April 6.

Regarding the above photo...
Mr Milburn said he was given 500mg of hydroxychloroquine twice a day and on the morning of April 13 the infectious disease doctor saw him, kept him on hydroxychloroquine but added a Zithromax drip to the treatment.
He said he was released on April 16 and sent home with a 10-day supply of hydroxychloroquine.
On May 4 he was tested for coronavirus and cleared.
“I was told I was carrying the antibodies now,” he said,
“controversial drug”
Hundreds of millions of doses administered over 50 years for a variety of diseases. The only only reason there is ANY “controversy” is DJT is POTUS and we have an absolutely unhinged press.
Amazing....Ohio....HCQ saved this Sheriff's life....and, where HCQ has now been BANNED.
(Thanks for the ping :)
Dr. Risch/Yale was just on Laura Ingraham & said Ohio is just being out front; said 44 States have banned it.
Wow...okay...who are the SIX states that have NOT banned HCQ??
None of the clinical trials on masks indicate they have a statistically significant effect on viral transmission but masks are being mandated. No clear data for HCL either so leftist ban it’s use? Central planners sure are screwed up.
RE: Wow...okay...who are the SIX states that have NOT banned HCQ??
I know that South Dakota is one of them ( Governor Kristi Noem ).
Bah. Truth matters not a wit. Democrats/MSM have seen to that. It’s all about what can we make’em believe.
And....Laura skimmed right over that...when Dr Risch/Yale said that 44 states have banned HCQ, for China Flu.
She didn’t even bat an eye...or, ask....who are the six states that have not?
That is why I tuned them out.
I was waiting to hear but nope, she didn’t ask.
Media manufactured controversy
It is time to find black market suppliers of HCQ.
Tonic water and tonic syrup
I want HCQ. Azithromycin too.
There are millions of doses inside the USA, but are being withheld from the “unwashed masses”. I remember an article where India had sent much of it to us.
It needs to find its way to the black market in larg quantities. Those that would deny it to the People need to be taken out and hanged.
