There are close to 30 studies on this drug now.

Drug cocktail touted by Trump to treat coronavirus increases chance of death by 27%, study shows

The researchers,, including Thibault Fiolet of Paris's Centre for Research in Epidemiology and Population Health, assessed 29 studies - processing the data of 11,932 patients who were treated with hydroxychloroquine, 8,081 who received hydroxychloroquine with azithromycin, and 12,930 in a control group that received neither.

Despite claims made by world leaders , the authors said the analysis “shows that hydroxychloroquine alone is not effective for the treatment of Covid-19 patients and that the combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin increases the risk of mortality".

Previous studies found the use of both drugs together increases the chance of heart attacks, and French researchers also concluded such a course of medicine “might increase the risk of acute, life-threatening cardiovascular events".

"No need for further studies" into unproven Covid-19 treatment supported by US president, researchers say

I strongly condemn President Trump’s remarks on this particular drug.

27% ? That's probably pretty reasonable.

Have you ever took time to listen to the side effects during one of the Big Pharma drug commercials? It's pretty depressing. 27% is probably par for the course.

HCQ... much safer, and cheaper.

Democrats and the left desperately reaching for something -- *anything* -- they can dig up to drag Trump.

I suspect ya'll better get ready for another 4 years. Biden's campaign ain't looking too strong.

Just another day of botched responses by Trump to Coronavirus. He's been at it every day this year with some half-baked scheme. The guy is a hopeless train wreck.

Sorry, but how is a 27% increased chance of death a good thing?

Something tells me you'd see the 27% increased chance of death very differently if it's you or your love one laying on the table.
