My intention was not to show what it does but rather present the side effects for those who seem to argue that it is safer than water (not that water is safe when drunk in excess).

how many die from using Hydroxychloroquine? You can find all kinds of cases of people dying from drinking too much water

Also, “Some 829 000 people are estimated to die each year from diarrhoea as a result of unsafe drinking-water,”

I’d say the deaths from water far far outweigh the deaths from Hydroxychloroquine- making water far more deadly than the life saving drug that is proving, over 65 years of use, to be extremely safe with only minor side effects or discomfort-

I agree with you that HCQ shouldn't be used as a preventive as it would seem some have been suggesting.

though if there is a 1 in 100,000 chance of death by a side effect vs 1 in 20 chance of death(very sick patients) without using it. Then the choice seems clear.
