Trump: Hydroxychloroquine has shown very encouraging early results in treating coronavirus

The kicker, though, is that hydroxychloroquine is already on the shelf. Unlike promising experimental drugs like remdesivir, chloroquine s been around for decades as a treatment for other maladies. It s safe for human consumption. It hasn t undergone clinical trials here yet as a coronavirus treatment that s coming but it seems like a cinch that American doctors are going to reach for it and use it off-label as a defense against COVID-19 given the early hype about it. Which means we should have some basic idea very soon, as hospitals are deluged, how effective it is or not.
