World Health Organization resumes coronavirus trial on malaria drug hydroxychloroquine after examining safety concerns

PUBLISHED WED, JUN 3 2020 12:10 PM EDT
UPDATED 3 HOURS AGO

The World Health Organization is resuming its trial of hydroxychloroquine, the malaria drug backed by President Donald Trump to combat the deadly coronavirus, after temporarily halting research over safety concerns.

The Data Safety Monitoring Board decided there was no reason to discontinue the international trial after reviewing available data on the drug, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said during a press conference Wednesday at the agency's Geneva headquarters.


"The executive group received this recommendation and endorsed the continuation of all arms of solidarity trial including hydroxychloroquine," he said.

I believe that covid19 vaccine development should be their main priority,not some botched clinical trials.

Italy was able to release 14000 patient in a single day by not listening to WHO. They performed autopsy on the dead bodies and found out the real cause of the Corona disease. Sanwo Olu, even if NDDC is scamming Nigerians , why do you want to be remembered as the governor who allowed Corona virus trend in this country. Why can't you be as selfless as Fashola. Whenever Ebola is mentioned in this country, Fashola's name is praised. I wonder what people will say about you in the future when Corona virus is mentioned

ehh they're supporting 133 vaccines in development globally. A working vaccine might not be ready this year or next, so other and quicker methods of treatment should be propped up.
