This is a larger study (180 sample size) than the initial one that led to Trumps claims. Patients given this drug had almost identical outcomes to patients on placebo.

Opinion | Time for US media to focus on medical experts, not Trump

The US president has become the focus of his long-winded press conferences, while crucial medical information – such as the effectiveness of hydryoxychloroquine in treating Covid-19 – is in short supply.

for every research paper that says it works there is one that says it doesn't and another that says a completely different drug works

If the malaria pill is not working, I wonder why over 30 countries are importing huge quantities of the same drug from India. But we shall know why very soon.

People see what they want. And interpret it the way they want.

Are you 100 per cent sure? how did they bring about the trouble?

My thought - If I had a bio-weapon to test I wouldn't do it in one of my major cities where the effect on population, tourism and trade would be devastating and long lasting but in any one of the other 194 countries where I would do it surreptitiously then retreat to observe the effects.

My other thought is on motive - Someone really wanted to destroy China or at least slow it down. Unfortunately COVID-19. unlike the other coronaviruses such as MERS and SARS, brought with it problems of containment that have brought unforeseen consequences in lands not planned.

There were some people who were very quick to point fingers at the direction from which the virus had supposedly come. What research had been done by first week of january to direct western media to bats and pangolins in Wuhan's wet markets? We even saw documentaries of the markets released in late january and february...did someone go into "hot" Wuhan (in lockdown!) with a film crew in tow just to make a human interest documentary of the city market? Or the material had been filmed beforehand? Why?

This would be a wrong thought considering the coverup china is doing regarding the investigations of the source of the virus.

If we are to assume the virus never ogirinated from their labs, the least we expected from them is full disclosure of the lethality of the virus. Do you still hold the opinion that china has 81000 infections and 3300 deaths?
