The Lancet Medical Journal apologized this week and pulled the controversial hydroxychloroquine study.
The study released by Lancet titled — “Hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine with or without a macrolide for treatment of COVID-19: a multinational registry analysis” — was retracted after it was found to be a complete fraud.
Reuters reported:
An influential study that found hydroxychloroquine increased the risk of death in COVID-19 patients has been withdrawn a week after it led to major trials being halted, adding to confusion about a malaria drug championed by U.S. President Donald Trump.
The Lancet medical journal pulled the study after three of its authors retracted it, citing concerns about the quality and veracity of data in it. The World Health Organization (WHO) will resume its hydroxychloroquine trials after pausing them in the wake of the study. Dozens of other trials have resumed or are in process.
The three authors said Surgisphere, the company that provided the data, would not transfer the dataset for an independent review and they “can no longer vouch for the veracity of the primary data sources.”

Sounds like a hit job on the President. People should be charged and go to jail... they cost lives!!
It's a shame people die over political views. But until these entities are held accountable. It will continue.
The democrats do no care if people suffered or even died because some withheld this medicine because the President was for it. This is the democrat party. They are the party made up of the worst society has to offer. there isn't a democrat alive who is a good decent and an honest person.
This calls for deeper investigation.
