Controversial COVID study that promoted unproven treatment retracted after four-year saga https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-04014-9 #covid19 #Hydroxychloroquine #science #retractions
'Boetes voor off-label voorschrijven medicijnen aan Covidpatiënten gehalveerd'
"De artsen schreven de off-label medicijnen hydroxychloroquine en/of ivermectine aan patiënten met Covid-19 voor. "
"Een huisarts kan een geneesmiddel off-label voorschrijven als er protocollen en standaarden zijn of in ontwikkeling zijn die het voorschrijven van zulke geneesmiddelen toelaten. Dat was hier niet het geval. Er was juist een advies van de Nederlandse beroepsvereniging van huisartsen dat het gebruik van deze twee geneesmiddelen voor COVID-19 afraadde."
"De boetes zijn gezien de uitzonderlijke omstandigheden tijdens de coronapandemie echter niet evenredig, oordeelt de Afdeling bestuursrechtspraak. Daarom halveert de Afdeling bestuursrechtspraak de boetes."

Not to worry, #MAGAmoron has a plan to inject #bleach diluted with #hydroxychloroquine into the butts of every bird in #America.

This has somehow slipped under my radar: "Controversial #COVID study that promoted unproven treatment retracted after four-year saga - Paper on #hydroxychloroquine led by French researcher Didier #Raoult is second-most-cited study ever to be withdrawn."
"Overall, the IHU now has 32 retracted papers — 28 of them authored by Raoult — and 230 other studies with expressions of concern."

RETRACTED: #Hydroxychloroquine and #azithromycin as a treatment of #COVID19

Why does the principal author (who still claims the research is valid) look so familiar?
Coincidence of course. 
A discredited study that set off a flurry of interest in using an antimalarial drug to treat COVID-19 has now been formally withdrawn
A scientific journal on Tuesday retracted the March 2020 study that introduced the world to #hydroxychloroquine early in the #COVID-19 pandemic and confirmed that the attention was undeserved from the start
The antimalarial drug was briefly touted as a possible treatment for the #coronavirus at a time when little else was available…fellow scientists quickly raised doubts about the study's size, scientific flaws and ethics. Follow-up studies failed to confirm its findings.
Nature magazine reports that "A study that stoked enthusiasm for the now-disproven idea that a cheap malaria #drug can treat #COVID19 has been retracted — more than four-and-a-half years after it was published."

Anybody that wants to drink #RawMilk I say let 'em.
Let 'em get #BirdFlu too and try to treat it with #hydroxychloroquine.
Let 'em get a first-hand experience of our #HealthCare system.
Time to buy stock in #FuneralHomes and #Crematoriums.

The paper proposing hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for COVID-19 has been retracted.
#hydroxychloroquine for #COVID *does* work in the *limited context* of a poor country and COVID patients with malaria
the hydroxychloroquine kills the malaria- what it is intended for, and the body has more resources to fight COVID
*only in that context*
not so much in the context of malaria-free fat stupid #americans
not that your average #MAGA moron understands
they blindly click "like" on lying #socialmedia posts as their #science "education"
Boing Boing: 2020 paper pushing bogus Covid treatment finally retracted. “A 2020 paper that caused a shortage of an anti-malarial drug also used to treat autoimmune disorders like lupus was just retracted by the journal that published it. In March of 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents published a study claiming […]
It's legal for doctors to prescribe drugs FDA approved for other indications. (off-label use).
This #hydroxychloroquine study was never submitted to the #FDA as a basis for marketing approval; and the drug was never approved by the agency for the #covid indication.
The retraction could not have come sooner?
"The promotion of the fraudulent results led to the abusive prescription of #hydroxychloroquine to millions of patients"

Hop, poubelle. Qui est le suivant ?
Finally! It “only” took almost five years to retract this article which wrongly suggested that #hydroxychloroquine would be an effective treatment to fight the coronavirus infection and #COVID19 This was NOT and it is NOT the case. Paper retracted. G’bye!

"L'étude Gautret était "la pierre angulaire d'un scandale mondial" et sa rétractation "constitue une reconnaissance tardive mais essentielle des dérives scientifiques qui ont mené à la mise en danger des patients", a salué dans un communiqué la Société française de pharmacologie et de thérapeutique. La SFPT a aussi appelé à une remise en question plus large des travaux menés sous la tutelle du professeur #DidierRaoult, en particulier sur l'#hydroxychloroquine."
#Covid : en Martinique Macron avait envoyé les flics saisir les stocks d'#hydroxychloroquine et empêcher les malades d'avoir accès à de l'oxygène. Les médecins locaux refusaient d'assassiner les vieux au Rivotril alors il a envoyé des brigades de France pour faire le sale boulot...
#Macron ne veut que du bien aux Martiniquais... Ils ont bien raison de lui résister.
