The Big Pharma and the AMA driven (https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ama+john+d+rockefeller&t=hk&ia=web) health care system, gave Emergency Use Authorization to the patented drug Remdisivir, that costs $3,200 per patient, even though its side effects are still widely unknown while short term it does present challenges.
This while the FDA revoked the emergency use authorization for hydroxychloroquine (https://duckduckgo.com/?q=fda+revoked+eua+hydroxychloroquine&t=h_&ia=web), which has met with a 99% success rate doctors - that actually treat patients - are enjoying all around the world, with early treatment (upon presentation of symptoms) using HCQ+AZ+Z. Hydroxychloroquine is so safe it is available over the counter in many countries including France up until recent months.
Even when used early upon hospitalization (well after optimal time to administer it) HCQ has been shown to result in 50% lower mortality according to the Ford and Mt. Sinai studies (that apparently didn't even use zinc in their protocol).
