The same is true for the belief salt is dangerous and a cause of hypertension. Were either or both of these dietary substances being promoted as dangerous, a disinformation campaign to actually cause trouble by restricting them in the diet when they are in fact essential for health?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Extraterrestrial Mind Control234 views0 answers0 votesThe Lancet just published a 96,000-patient registry analysis of multinational clinical data from hospitalized patients with COVID-19 comparing outcomes of four non-randomized treatment groups compared to controls: Chloroquine alone, chloroquine with a macrolide, hydroxychloroquine alone, or hydroxychloroquine with a macrolide. The main endpoints were in-hospital mortality and sustained ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation. There was no confirmed benefit of any treatment, and each of these drug regimens were associated with decreased in-hospital survival and an increased frequency of ventricular arrhythmias.
