I wonder how long it will take for the idiots to catch up with the latest news.
The lancet published a paper which resulted in WHO stopping all HCQ trials, turns out the lancet paper failed peer review so it was retracted
Additionally, do you know why it was retracted? And what retraction means? It doesn't mean that because a paper shows X, that if its retracted, X is false, it just means the paper is not evidence for X being true.
Big difference
The Lancet retracted it because it didn't pass a real peer review nothing to do with your bullshit.
That bogus bullshit they published resulted in WHO stopping all trials of HCQ which resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths which all those who opposed HCQ have the blood of those deaths on their hands.
The lancet published a study that used unverified data which means it was a bullshit study
Quote:How did The Lancet's now-retracted study on hydroxychloroquine make it through peer review?
Scientists around the world are resuming trials of the controversial drug hydroxychloroquine for possible use against COVID-19
after the retraction of a heavily criticised study into its effects and side-effects.When the study was first published in the highly influential medical journal The Lancet, it prompted the World Health Organisation (WHO) to pause trials on the drug, which has long been used for preventing or treating malaria, as well as lupus.
Now the paper has been retracted, and the WHO trials are back on,
after several of the paper's authors said they were not able to verify the contents of a database at the heart of the study.So how did a paper of this size, with such apparent flaws, make it through peer review to publication in The Lancet? And how badly did it stall progress on assessing the drug's worth in the fight against coronavirus?But many scientists voiced concern about the study following its publication. Nearly 150 doctors signed an open letter to The Lancet questioning the article's conclusions, and calling for the peer review comments that preceded publication to be released.Why is hydroxychloroquine getting so much attention?
You can thank the President of the United States for the drug's notoriety.
Donald Trump has repeatedly promoted hydroxychloroquine's use, calling it a "game changer" in the fight against coronavirus.Criticism over the quality of its data led to the Lancet study's withdrawal.
The Lancet's study caused ripple effects
The WHO's decision to halt its trials on hydroxychloroquine as a result of the study had knock-on effects across the medical profession.
The United Kingdom's COPCOV trial, which was investigating whether hydroxychloroquine could prevent healthcare workers contracting COVID-19, was put on hold just a week after launch.
French company Sanofi also temporarily stopped recruiting for its study into the drug. Both the UK and French studies have yet to resume.https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-06-05/hydroxychloroquine-study-the-lancet-peer-... The 150 doctors who questioned the lancet study resulting in it being retracted understand science far better than the idiots like bumcrack noseman who fritters away his life on this forum pretending to be an expert on everything.
