The Recovery Trial was not investigating the prophylactic potential of hydroxychloroquine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The COPCOV trial was due to assess hydroxychloroquine\u2019s prophylactic efficacy in protecting healthcare workers against contracting COVID-19.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The PRINCIPLE trial was perhaps the most relevant of all. Vulnerable over 50&#8217;s and people over 65 were to be offered hydroxychloroquine in a large cohort study of patients in primary care (GP practices and community care settings).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">In France, Inserm ran their own <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/presse.inserm.fr\/en\/launch-of-a-european-clinical-trial-against-covid-19\/38737\/\"><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Discovery Trials<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a> in parallel to the WHO&#8217;s Solidarity Trials.

Four days before the launch of the WHO&#8217;s Solidarity Trials, Professor Yazdan Yazdanpanah, head of France&#8217;s health emergency rapid response committee (REACTing &#8211; REsearch and ACTion targeting emerging infectious diseases) stated the Discovery Trials would exclude chloroquine (hydroxychloroquine) and <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20200319055413\/https:\/\/www.larecherche.fr\/covid-19-coronavirus-sant%C3%A9\/coronavirus-la-riposte-de-la-recherche\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>only trial patented drug<\/strong><\/span>s<\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">We have not retained it [hydroxychloroquine] for the moment, in particular because of its undesirable effects.

However, intensive care patients are often treated with multiple drugs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">This followed a decision on 15 January, made by then French Minister of Solidarity In Health, Agn\u00e8s Buzyn, to reclassify hydroxychloroquine <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.legifrance.gouv.fr\/affichTexte.do?cidTexte=JORFTEXT000041400024&amp;categorieLien=id\">in all its forms<\/a><\/strong><\/span> as a poisonous substance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Prior to this decision, for more than 50 years, the French had been able to buy hydroxychloroquine over the counter. Once demand shot through the roof, as the COVID-19 crisis unfolded, they suddenly could no longer get it without a prescription.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">With the WHO initially including hydroxychloroquine in their Solidarity Trials, Inserm had little option but to reluctantly include it in their Discovery Trials on <em>Solidarity<\/em> launch day, 22 March.

What he revealed was quite remarkable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Firstly, the mortality rate of the hydroxychloroquine patients was a staggering 25.7%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong> <a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/bnf.nice.org.uk\/drug\/hydroxychloroquine-sulfate.html#indicationsAndDoses\">recommended hydroxychloroquine dose for an adult<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>in the UK is no more than 200 &#8211; 400mg per day. In France 1800mg per day is considered to be <em>lethal<\/em> poisoning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Across 175 UK hospitals, 1542 patient participants in the Recovery Trials were given 2400mg (six times the recommended maximum dose) in the first twenty-four hours. This was followed up by ten days at twice the recommended maximum dose at 800mg.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">It isn&#8217;t really clear what the objective was. This wasn&#8217;t so much a trial of effectiveness, it looked more like an experiment in toxic poisoning. It would seem to account for the atrocious mortality rate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Explaining that the dose was chosen by using computer generated mathematical models, Prof Landry stated:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The doses were chosen on the basis of pharmacokinetic modelling and these are in line with the sort of doses that you used for other diseases such as amoebic dysentery&#8230;..For a new disease such as Covid, there is no there is no approved dosing protocol. But the HCQ dosage used are not dissimilar to that used, as I said, in for example amoebic dysentery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Hydroxyquinoline &#8211; not hydroxychloroquine &#8211; is used for the treatment of amoebic dysentery. Perhaps it is not without good reason the Professor Didier Raoult described the Recovery Trial as &#8220;<a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"http:\/\/covexit.com\/professor-raoult-compares-the-oxford-recovery-trial-academics-to-the-marx-brothers\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>The Marx Brothers doing science<\/strong><\/span><\/a>,&#8221; though given the terrible death toll, it doesn&#8217;t really seem like much of a laughing matter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">What can we conclude from all this? It seems the WHO, the MHRA, Inserm, and public health bodies around the world have used fake science, fake data, deliberately destructive studies and what appears to be wilful ignorance to make sure hydroxychloroquine is never trialled as a preventative COVID-19 treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The repeated statements, from numerous sources, that there is no scientific evidence to justify the use of the <em>Marseilles Treatment<\/em> as a prophylactic treatment for COVID-19 are risible.
