It's stated the the drug hydroxychloroquine (along with a mix of azithromycin) was recently used in a study in France on few people with coronavirus and it was found to have helped the said patients recover in six days. More clinical trials are set to begin in other countries soon, including the U.S.

The WHO has disgraced itself so much recently that I wanna write to the band known as the who and ask them to change their name to "those boomers that make rock music, no not the Australian ones, the british ones. Oh damn it that's still too vague!"

or it probably does, just that it would be grossly irresponsible to just rush it without further testing

trump might be fine with a few hundred or thousand deaths so long as he gets his fucking headpats, but fortunately he doesn't get a say in this

What do you expect? They have no money, hardly any authority, and countries don't want to help them out until something happens which makes them remember why they're there.
