Hi Filipe,

Great article explaining in one place all that I slowly got to know myself over the past couple of months by researching and finding bits and pieces left and right which I put together like you did.

I did not yet read your other two posts (but I will) so not sure you already covered following suggestion:

The single study most people that support the dominant narrative refer to when claiming hydroxychloroquine does not work - including many doctors and "scientific experts" - is the RECOVERY trial.

I probably don't need to tell you all the things that are wrong with this study - including the fact that the study stopped enrolling patients in the hydroxychloroquine arm on the exact same day The Lancet retracted their fraudulent paper - but I didn't notice you discussing this paper:

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2022926

In my opinion, it's of utmost importance to point out the major flaws in this study as well, even though it does not talk about early treatment.

Again: great article and thanks for the great efforts you put in to try and educate the masses... I commend you!

Dear Rene,

Thanks for the message. I'm glad you liked it. About the trial recovery, I speak at the end. It's about high doses. Didn't they read the Fiocruz study that already said that high doses were not good?

Didn't they read the correspondence from India saying that the doses were too high?

They got confused and gave the doses only to serious patients, where there is no important HCQ effect anymore?

I who am not a scientist had already understood that the treatment is in the first days of symptom, why so many basic confusions?

And in a dose of at most 600mg per day, for five days. Why such a high dose?

I who am not a scientist had already read the Fiocruz study which said that high doses were not recommended.

Thanks, Filipe

Hi Filipe,

Thanks for your message.

You're absolutely right. Indeed it's extremely disturbing.

I'm not a scientist either... The fact that we as non-scientists see how wrong these studies are makes it all the more scandalous that these studies passed peer review. And even worse, that so many doctors and policy makers hide behind these problematic studies to claim there is no treatment for COVID-19.

I sincerely hope that one day people will wake up and finally see we've made a huge mistake to ignore all this evidence.

Only time will tell...

Filipe, In full agreement with Norman, a complete overview of the machinations of big pharma, big money and the politics then aimed at Raoult et al, which I have been following since March of this year. That the censorship included some of the most (respected ?) journals in medicine is also of great dismay as to the state of health systems worldwide.

Your final analogy of the Boeing debacle is spot on. A once great engineering driven company now run by the most dubious types of modern management theory, literally driving their products into the ground, in complete abrogation of their duty of care.

And my favourite line in the piece "To social network censors: censorship is the tool of cowards without arguments." Let younger minds finally understand the deception that is being foisted upon them, and the saying "do not corner a coward..for he will kill the devil" come to mind.

I shall circulate your article as far and wide as possible.

Warmest regards

Mark Nash

A masterful piece, Filipe! Well researched and highly readable. I've been ranging wide and digging deep on this subject, and in journalistic terms, this two-part work of yours, to my mind, ranks as the best and most complete synthesis on the issue of Raoult's protocol (/and those of others) and its (/their) suppression. I can only hope that many people will find it and read it and think deeply about its implications, and as well circulate it as widely as possible. A sincere 'thank you!' for putting all of this together.

Dear Norman,

Thanks for the comment. The content has viralized. It has been widely read.

I'm glad you liked it. With I said before, you can copy it, reproduce it. In this or other languages.

English is not my original language, as you may understand. I'm glad to know it's readable.

Filipe
