The study, using a gigantic data set of 96,000 patients in 671 hospitals, concluded the drug was useless for treating COVID-19 patients, and posed health dangers.

The study (briefly) had the effect of convincing medical professionals, governments, media, and the public that HCQ was a total failure. A COVID drug would have to come from somewhere else.

Only one problem:

The authors of the study and the Lancet reviewers now confess the data can't be found. The strong suggestion is, the data never existed.

The relentless and brilliant journalist, Celia Farber, covers the whole sordid story at uncoverdc.com. She points out that "Remdesivir, [the toxic COVID drug] 'touted' by Anthony Fauci…costs $1,000 per pill, whereas HCQ's generic price is $0.64." That's called a clue.
