Do the updated data from France give you (or Clark or vin) any more confidence in the HCQ + Azithromycin combo for COVID-19?

No. Everything I’ve seen is observational anecdotes from the same group. And that group is clearly incompetent (or worse). As I predicted 2 days ago, where there is smoke there is a (raging) fire. There is a long history in the field of scientific misconduct that once you find one set of blatant image copying or number manipulation there will be more ickiness. That’s bearing out.

The problem is that fundamentally HCQ as acute treatment isn’t a strong treatment compared to the variability of disease. Thus trivial to either fool yourself or others.

Clark said it best - "more data is a poor substitute for good data"
