EUA faze documento contra uso da cloroquina para combater o Covid-19

Why is Chloroquine being rejected?

Fifty top scientists from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), including some consultants to the US government, released yesterday, Tuesday, the 21st, a series of recommendations against the use of chloroquine (especially the famous chloroquine version)

In desperation to get the economy back on track and to combat Covid-19 in Brazil, many want to use chloroquine as a solution.– This idea has already been defended by President Donald Trump and, by extension, also by Jair Bolsonaro, although, after strong criticism, he has chosen to remain silent on the matter in recent days, since the appointment of the new Minister of Health, Nelson Teich.

The research, which has great influence in the scientific world, is being taken seriously by all European countries. It was published by one of the most respected health institutions in the United States. The study pointed out severe side effects of the compounds, with episodes of cardiac arrhythmia and even poisoning.

NIH pointed out insufficient results

Chloroquine is a good drug against other diseases in which it has already been used, however, in relation to the new coronavirus, the case works differently, the virus is not a simple mutation of an existing one, on the contrary, it is really new on the market.

According to a publication in Veja this week, upon learning of the report and asked to comment on the results, Trump responded ironically, in typical fashion: “I’m always willing to take a look.”

However, as far as we know, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in the United States, Anthony Fauci, who is also an advisor on health decisions at the White House, has never hidden his aversion to prescriptions with chloroquine, without due proof of real efficacy.

So my people, don't use it! It's dangerous!
