Wot no coronavirus thread? Thread broken - see new thread
Also don't foorget that Switzerland, just like South Korea are small countries which, actually also enacted lots of rules regarding social distancing and wearing masks.
Something that surely provides more containment of the virus (and therefore lowered death rates) than HQL might do (as such measures will contribute a lot to keep the spread of the virus away from those who are vulnerable and have a larger chance to die from the virs (like the elder ones)
The professor at Yale mentioned the events in his oped. I picked up the graph without source. So I'm looking for source.

President Trump expressed optimism based on studies in France and China, and the media freaked out. The president’s political opposition would go on to cling to any proof the drug would not work and suppress any information that it would. This politicization culminated in the horrific study published by Lancet that the publication quietly retracted.
However, the damage was already done. The World Health Organization suspended trials immediately after the study published in Lancet. Switzerland, which had been using the treatment, prohibited the use of the drug in COVID-19 shortly after that on May 27th. The retraction was so stealth that the ban was not lifted in Switzerland until June 11th.
This window allowed French researchers to analyze what happened in the entire population of COVID-19 patients during the ban. They used the case fatality rate (CFR) as the measure observed. The graph is stunning.
hydroxychloroquine
It also the only period where the Swiss CFR approached or exceeded that in France where there has been no use of hydroxychloroquine outside a few isolated trials.
hydroxychloroquine
The CFR returned to the highest level it had been since early in the pandemic at over 15%. Upon resumption of treatment with hydroxychloroquine, it returned to below 5%. A statistical analysis of the data:
The Professor at Yale is a hack and has been debunked... but I'm sure you will keep bringing him up since you have no real evidence to support your claims.
All you can provide is anecdotal evidence... no scientific or real evidence
Dr. Anthony Fauci suggested that people wear goggles or face shields as an added measure of protection against contracting the coronavirus, according to a report. “If you have goggles or an e…

"Hiccups (singultus) are reflex inspiratory movements that involve the swallowing reflex arc and can be classified as acute (<48 h) or persistent (>48 h). A 62-year-old man with no history of malignancy or pulmonary disease presented to the Emergency Department with a four-day history of persistent hiccups. Other than episodic hiccupping, his physical examination was otherwise unremarkable. An abnormal chest X-ray led to a CT scan of the chest with IV contrast, which demonstrated regional, peripheral groundglass opacities of the upper lobes with small focal groundglass opacities scattered throughout the lungs. He was tested for COVID-19 per admission protocol, started on hydroxychloroquine, his hiccups improved, and he was discharged to home after 3 days. An emergency medicine physician should keep COVID-19 on the differential and be vigilant of exposure in atypical presentations."

Dude, anecdotal evidence is a single story. If someone learns Spanish and their cancer goes into remission, that's an anecdote. But it is NOT evidence that foreign language instruction cures cancer. Similarly, if someone doesn't die from Covid, it doesn't mean that the treatment regimen their doctor used should be adopted by everyone. (God, it's like trying to explain things to a 2nd-grader.)
