My guess is that they want to doctor the report and make it look as if Chloroquine is not working. I have lost trust in medical bodies.

What these men can do for money will send shivers down your spine. I expected it with news of Nigeria being one of the places Chloroquine is working.

Just bribe them some dollars and they are ready to sink the whole country for it to fit them.

This means my theory is correct.
The PCR test is bullshit.
Deeply flawed.
So why are we still waiting for bill gates ?
That is not true. The PcR test remains the most effective test for this.

Also, while you are thinking, consider the same lagos state that has supposedly been using hydroxychloroquine for all it's patients has recorded several deaths as well. What happened in those cases, if this suppositiin holds true? Ehy did they die even after being treated with hydroxychloroquine?

No test is of 100% accuracy.
In the presence of contaminated samples or bad calibration of the equipment used PCR is pretty much unreliable.

Ask Dr. Andrew Kauffman to school you on the pitfalls of this particular PCR testing

I didn't say it is 100% but it is still the most effective to date. Obviously, you would not use PCR, or any test in presence of contaminated samples or with bad calibration angry undecided

First off the lab scientists needs to know how to properly calibrate.
Second, contamination maybe accidental or deliberate.

Are you suggesting that the Nigerian labs & their lab scientists aren't to be trusted as far as PCR testing of COVID-19 is concerned? huh

Hydroxychloroquine is a very strong medication and it is not advisable to be taken regularly, that was why the FDA in America was a bit skeptical about using the drugs.... Since it was producing reverse effects on those with the Covid-19 and other underlying health conditions. Most died despite been given hydroxychloroquine. So their skepticism was justified.

Placebo and remdesivir are two drugs without high risk of side effects.
Don't blame CNN.... They only report what the FDA proscribed.

The mortality consequences of the continued use of chloroquine in Africa: experience in Siaya, western Kenya.
Abstract
In spite of increasing resistance, chloroquine remains the primary drug for treatment of malaria in most sub-Saharan African countries. We evaluated the effect of drug treatment policy on the case-fatality rates of children, adjusting for differing distributions of malaria and severe anemia. In 1991, 63% of children were treated with chloroquine while the remaining 37% were treated with a regimen that would eliminate and clear parasitemia. Case-fatality rates were 13% and 4.1%, respectively; the proportion of deaths attributable to chloroquine treatment was 69%. The trend in case-fatality rates for malaria decreased as an increasing proportion of children received an effective treatment regimen; adjusted malaria case-fatality rates were 5.1%, 3.6%, and 3.3% in 1992, 1993, and 1994, respectively, when 85% of children in 1992 and 97% of children in 1993-1994 received effective therapy. These 4 years of data provide strong evidence that continued use of chloroquine in areas with resistance is contributing to excess Plasmodium falciparum-related deaths.
Hundreds of Nigerians die each year after receiving HydroxylChloroquine treatment for Malaria. This has been known for a long time and widely researched. This drug has never been safe for everyone.For those of you who are prone to self-medicate, ignore the warnings contraindications of this drug at your own detriment.

The patent for the drug HydroxyChloroquine belongs to western countries, so don't decieve yourself into believing Chloroquine is a Nigerian owned/made drug. It is neither.

If we're using the same contaminated kits the Dutch Brits and Spanish complained about (from China) then ...
Calibration issues is not just a Nigerian thing as Dr Kauffman explained
