Medical establishments and mainstream media wanted to censor anyone who stated hydroxychloroquine could treat COVID-19.

Big Pharma had lots of money to make from the experimental COVID-19 injections, and cheap alternatives would have interfered with profits.

However, hydroxychloroquine isn’t facing the same scrutiny compared to the height of COVID-19 hysteria.

In fact, Mayo Clinic quietly made a new statement about the drug.

“Hydroxychloroquine may also be used to treat coronavirus (COVID-19) in certain hospitalized patients,” Mayo Clinic stated on its website.

From Mayo Clinic:

Hydroxychloroquine is used to treat malaria. It is also used to prevent malaria infection in areas or regions where it is known that other medicines (eg, chloroquine) may not work. Hydroxychloroquine may also be used to treat coronavirus (COVID-19) in certain hospitalized patients.

Using this medicine alone or with other medicines (eg, azithromycin) may increase your risk of heart rhythm problems (eg, QT prolongation, ventricular fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia). Hydroxychloroquine should only be used for COVID-19 in a hospital or during clinical trials. Do not take any medicine that contains hydroxychloroquine unless prescribed by your doctor.

Hydroxychloroquine belongs to a group of medicines known as antimalarials. It works by preventing or treating malaria, a red blood cell infection transmitted by the bite of a mosquito. However, this medicine is not used to treat severe or complicated malaria.

Hydroxychloroquine is used to treat discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE or lupus). It is also used to treat acute and chronic rheumatoid arthritis.

This medicine is available only with your doctor’s prescription.

The Mayo Clinic previously stated about using chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19:

These malaria drugs were authorized for emergency use by the FDA during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the FDA withdrew that authorization when data analysis showed that the drugs are not effective for treating COVID-19. They also can cause serious heart problems.

Mayo Clinic is one of the top-ranked medical institutions in the United States.

Per Mayo Clinic:

Mayo Clinic is top-ranked for quality more often than any other health care organization.

These endorsements reinforce Mayo Clinic’s commitment to provide the highest quality care to each patient every day. Although no single set of measures can perfectly represent health care quality, Mayo Clinic is proud to be recognized.
