It seems to me that there is often among scientists and others this clear opposition to simple, cheap, potentially life saving (partial) solutions to major medical issues. In the article it is claimed that HCQ had minimal evidence of being effective when the contrary was true. Political, financial and prestige considerations have muddled the debate. The visceral hatred toward Donald Trump who promoted HCQ, has done great damage to science and health. Thousands may have needlessly died because of this hostility toward the messenger. I hope for sanity to return so that eventually a proper evaluation of these aids may be  brought forth and learn from the terrible mistakes made out of petty interests.
