USPA NEWS - The research institute chaired by Professor Didier Raoult has published the summary of a new study praising the success rates of hydroxychloroquine against COVID-19. 1,061 patients tested positive for the new coronavirus, COVID-19 received for "at least three days" this treatment promoted by the Prof Raoult, in infectious diseases.

Despite the spectacular results of the disappearance of the viral load of COVID-19, from patients who have received hydroxychoriquin, (Or “‹“‹precisely thanks to ..) has aroused new criticism from the medical world, as for the methodology of the epidemiologist protocole. He is notably criticized for the lack of a "double blind randomized" study of Choloroquine Versus Placebo, as usual in epidemiology. The supporters of Prof Raoult, meanwhile, justify the use of chloroquine, even if the protocol is not "usual", is crucial or even vital, when it comes to saving lives, in the face of violent mortality rate and what is more, there is to date no other effective treatment. Epidemiologists also point out that researchers will only be able to deliver a real effective vaccine after 18 months at least, since it involves numerous clinical trials with incompressible delays. It should also be added that the cachets of Chloroquine are accessible to all, with a cost of 20 ct (0.20 €), the wafer of Plaquenil. The research institute of Professor Didier Raoult in Marseille has put online the summary of a new study touting the merits of hydroxychloroquine against the coronavirus, the methodology of which immediately aroused new criticism from the medical world.

PROFESSOR RAOULT PRACTICES THE "TOM" METHOD BASED ON THE HYPOCRATE OATH------------------------- Professor Didier Raoult announced Tuesday that he would no longer participate in the next meetings of the scientific council (his name appears with the mention “excused“ on the first two opinions of the council, and no longer appears in the list of members on the third opinion, dated March 16). However, he affirmed, in a video published on YouTube and relayed on social networks, to stay in contact with the Ministry of Health and the President of the Republic “directly“, “to tell them what I think“, “because advice does not correspond to what I think is a duty of strategic advice “Professor Raoult denounced the "moral dictatorship" of "methodologists" and their "purely mathematical reflections" in the field of medical ethics. "But the doctor can and must think like a doctor, not like a methodologist," he wrote to justify his practices on chloroquine, in an interview on March 26 with the newspaper Le Monde. Didier Raoult is currently testing chloroquine - an antimalarial - on patients with COVID-19,

FRENCH GOVERNMENT PUBLISHED A DECREE OVER CHLOROQUIINE ON MARCH 26------------------------------ Knowing that the Minister of Health Olivier Veran has ruled out prescribing it in the general population or for non-severe cases, "in the absence of any convincing data". Then, the Prime Minister signed a decree, published on Thursday, March 26, stipulates that "hydrochloroquine and the lopinavir / ritonavir combination can be prescribed, dispensed and administered under the responsibility of a doctor to patients affected by Covid- 19 ". However, it can only be administered in hospitals, that is to say for the most serious cases. Prescription can only be given after a collegial decision by the doctors of the establishment. “The doctor interviewed to find out what he was doing in a situation where there was no treatment that had really proven to be effective said: 'I apply Tom's method', and he explained that Tom was his son “, explains the professor. The principle of this method is, according to Didier Raoult, "the substance of the Hippocratic oath": "treat everyone as if they were their own son". The Official Journal of the French Republic (JORF n ° 0074) of this Thursday March 26, 2020 has just published, at the end of the morning, a "decree n ° 2020-314 of March 25, 2020" presented as "supplementing decree n ° 2020 -293 of March 23, 2020 prescribing the general measures necessary to cope with the epidemic of covid-19 in the context of the state of health emergency “.

OUT OF 1061 PATIENTS MORE THAN 9/10 HAVE ZERO VIRAL LOAD OF COVID-19N AFTER 10 DAYS 1,061 patients tested positive for the new coronavirus received for "at least three days" this treatment promoted by the specialist in infectious diseases. After 10 days, more than nine in ten (91.7%) had zero viral load, meaning that no coronavirus was found in their samples, and five people (0.5%) were deceased, patients aged 74 to 95. This percentage is "significantly lower" than in "patients treated under other regimes both at the IHU and in all Marseille public hospitals", says this summary, which also specifies that "no cardiac toxicity has been observed. " The full study has not yet been made public, but the results have been revealed (preview) to French President Emmanuel Macron when he visited him on Thursday March 9 at IUH.
