Algeria will continue to use the drug hydroxychloroquine against the novel coronavirus, a member of its scientific committee said, despite the World Health Organization suspending clinical trials of such treatments.

"We've treated thousands of cases with this medicine, very successfully so far

"We haven't noted any undesirable reactions," he told AFP.
