Please educate yourself on statics and read the paper. Obvious points:

- It’s a pre-print

- Not reviewed

- Way too small group sizes to be meaningful

I think you mean "statistics"? Statics is the study of constant forces acting on unmoving bodies (as opposed to dynamics).

This comment brings nothing to discussion, plus making any kind of definitive statement based on 'none statistically significant study' is plain rubbish.

Go complain to fb or twitter.

All the times this person is wrong he lies about it and puts someone else under the bus. Good luck!

Even if Trump finally turns out to be right, he announced his claims before seeing this (or any other) study. If you claim a thousand things eventually one or two will be true.

Trump often makes claims about things he wants to draw attention to. Given that HCQ is such a cheap, off patent drug, it stands to reason that he wanted to get it into the public consciousness so it would be looked at with more scrutiny.

Without him mentioning it, there isn't much incentive to study it.
