A drug infamously touted by Donald Trump has been linked to nearly 17,000 Covid deaths in a new scientific study.
Researchers say that the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine was prescribed to patients during the first wave of Covid-19 “despite the absence of evidence documenting its clinical benefits.”
The French study estimated that 16,990 patients in the US, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain and Turkey may have died as a result of the drug.
The study has been published in the February issue of Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy.
Researchers say the data used comes from a study published in the Nature scientific journal, which reported that there was an 11 per cent increase in mortality rate linked to the drug’s prescription.
Well technically, dying does eliminate COVID from your body.
This is probably the grossest “um, actually” I’ve said ever, but I think technically rotting is what eventually gets rid of the covid in your body. A recently deceased person would still “have” covid in them.
Pretty sure it was a joke
It is. I didn’t misunderstand it, I just wanted to comment on it.
And you comment was absolutely perfect :D (not being sarcastic).
pee pee poo poo
Did you want me to respond in some way or is this a standalone statement?
I never turn down human interaction, but yes it’s a standalone statement.
