A major anti-hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) study, published in Biomedicine and Pharmacotherapy under Dr. Danyelle Townsend’s oversight, has been retracted after its dataset was exposed as unreliable – if not outright fraudulent.
The article falsely estimated deaths from HCQ during COVID-19, relying on flawed data and referencing the deeply criticized 2020 RECOVERY trial.
Despite HCQ’s centuries-long safety record, the study attacked its use, ignoring well-established pharmacology and the CDC’s own acknowledgment of HCQ as “relatively well tolerated.”
