For what I consider unbiased explanations of all the scientific studies and data current out there I Liston to on you tube Medcram videos by DR Roger Seheult. He does fairly often COVID-19 update videos.

His latest one is

Also in past he did some fairly good explanation of how COVID-19 works and why people was hopeful for Chloroquine/hydroChloroquine. I think more medical studies still need to be done on drug but think people need to take a step back and wait for more data instead of declaring it not effective at all or very effective as there simply not enough data at the moment for either conclusion. It was wrong for fox news to have someone on in past claiming it was 100% effective which defiantly not proven and also the study that people citing saying it reduces your chance of surviving is also very questionable.

In this video starting 1 min 44 sec he shows the science behind why there was some hope for the drug be effective

I think more than one person dying specifically from the side effects of that drug in very small sample sizes is more than enough to look for other cures. There really is no point wasting time and resources into one specific drug that has already killed plenty of people when there are hundreds of other potential drugs to study.

If a drug kills people it better be super effective in the vast majority of other cases, but so far it's at best questionable. That is just not good enough.
