@Jolly said in Hydroxychloroquine is back:

From what I've seen, and I'll be happy to be proved wrong, this report is on a study that is

1. Retrospective
2. Not randomized
3. Not (yet) peer-reviewed.

As much as I'd like to believe it, I'll withhold judgment.

Does the fact the Henry Ford Health System asked for the authorization not count?
