In an important move that may just spell an end to multiple studies and trails around Hydroxychloroquine, the World Health Organisation has said it is putting its solidarity trial on HCQ and chloroquine on temporary 'pause' to review its benefits and harms.
"The executive group of the Solidarity Trial representing ten of the participating countries met on Saturday and has agreed to review a comprehensive analysis and critical appraisal of all evidence available globally. The review will consider data collected so far in the Solidarity Trials and, in particular robust randomised available data, to adequately evaluate the potential benefits and harms from this drug," WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Monday.
