Study from Marseille seems well founded, although (of course) based on a small sample. Why isn't this higher up?

Thankfully it seems like US and French governments have seen the study and immediately decided to remove red tape for larger sample sizes.

I just hope they don't wait "weeks" if they see in 10 days significant results. They can wait weeks for the formal, 100 page study, but hope we see some tweets saying go/no go in 10 days after rolling this out.

Don’t worry. The people who matter are on it. Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine in particular have been the leading therapeutic interventions in the clinical research publications for... quite some time (honestly every week feels like a month so I am losing track).

Trump also said yesterday I believe he ordered FDA to fast track both versions plus another antiviral remdesivir that is also showing effects.
