Didier Raoult, MD, PhD conducted this trial with the remarkable results with a combo of available, known pills (HCQ plus an antibiotic).
Dr Oz, the TV guy, is funding at Columbia a genuinely randomized trial of HCQ.
Teva Pharm is donating at least 6 million HCQ pills, so we shall see if they work for this purpose (they are now given for rheumatoid arthritis, malaria, and sometimes for lupus).
Dr Fauci wants perfect data, and that is understandable, but this is an immediate need and there seems to be little downside to giving HCQ a whirl.
