Deadly Policy: Peer-Reviewed Cross-Country Study Finds That Routine Hydroxychloroquine Access May Have Prevented Over 520,000 COVID-19 Deaths
Countries that restricted access to hydroxychloroquine had higher fatalities. National lockdowns had no effect on fatalities.
A comprehensive cross-country analysis to identify the factors affecting COVID-19 infections and fatalities found that lack of access to hydroxychloroquine was a major factor in driving COVID-19 deaths. The study, which was published today in the Public Health Policy Research section of the IPAK PHPI open-access journal, Science, Public Health Policy & the Law, controlled for other variables like obesity, urbanization, age, healthcare infrastructure, and policy responses such as lockdowns and travel restrictions.
A key finding of the studies included was a robust negative relationship between access to HCQ and COVID-19 fatalities. Countries that restricted access to hydroxychloroquine had higher fatalities. The analysis model resulted in an estimate that around 520,000 fatalities could have been avoided if HCQ had been made widely available in countries where it was restricted.
The study also found that obesity, older populations, fewer hospital beds, and less sunshine were associated with higher rates of infection and fatalities. (See link for article)
A few points:
- countries that restricted HCQ use should abandon their deadly policy. (Please see: How a false HCQ narrative was created)
- lockdowns were never significantly associated with lowered mortality rates
- PCR testing was positively associated with reported infections, but not with fatalities, which the authors attribute to the high false positive rate of the use of non-quantitative PCR testing to assess COVID-19 diagnostic status
And speaking of horrific COVID testing:
The FREE COVID test which costs $600M for 200M of them, is being resurrected. Despite the tests being fraudulent, inaccurate, contaminated and dangerous, citizens can get up to four “free” tests per household, paid for by insurers.
These tests contain human protein-coding genes and often fail to amplify the viral target sequences causing FALSE NEGATIVES, but they have been manipulated to inflate cases which in turn has been used to drag out the ‘pandemic’ under false pretenses. The study above also shows they are associated with high false positives. They also manipulated the tests on the “vaccinated” to make the shots look effective when they weren’t, and quit counting the flu to make everything look like COVID. The CDC has been overestimating flu deaths for two orders of magnitude to push the basically useless flu vaccines.
For a 5% prevalence rate for COVID infections in a population, the 42% false positive discovery rate means that for every 50 true positives, there will be 36 false positives. Ponder that for a moment.
COVID CASES WILL BE OVERSTATED BY A FACTOR OF 72%
Due to unreliable PCR tests, there are no credible COVID “vaccine” data.
The CDC has a long history of insisting upon their own worthless tests that they own the patents on.

More Mask Masquerades
Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola
Sept. 22, 2023
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
- Dr. Anthony Fauci is making the media rounds again, saying he hopes people will comply if mask recommendations return
- In January 2021, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ordered the wearing of masks on public transportation. A court order issued in mid-April 2022 ultimately blocked enforcement of the order. So, it has now been legally clarified that the CDC cannot mandate anything. They can only make recommendations, which Fauci also recently confirmed
- The 2023 Cochrane review of “Physical Interventions to Interrupt or Reduce the Spread of Respiratory Viruses” found masking had no effect on confirmed infection rates. The review also found no difference between medical/surgical masks and N95/P2 respirators
- Yet in her February 2023 congressional testimony, then CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky argued the mask analysis only relied on a “small number” of trials as if more would somehow change the results and she falsely claimed the editor-in-chief had retracted the review summary.
- Fauci is still doubling down on masking, saying masks work “on an individual level” even though randomized controlled trials show it makes no difference on the population level. He could have ended all the controversy by funding large studies to draw more conclusive results, but he didn’t. He also didn’t offer any studies to back up his claims, but in the past he has used low quality, observational & cross-sectional studies based on modeling.
- There is plenty of evidence that masks cause harm and contain a dozen different volatile and potentially hazardous chemicals including graphene.
- If mask recommendations are renewed this fall, do not comply
- The asymptomatic spread narrative was completely destroyed by a Chinese study involving nearly 10 million people which showed that not a single case of COVID-19 could be traced to an asymptomatic individual who had tested positive. Still, the propaganda machine churned on, ignoring the evidence.
- The pandemic of the “vaccinated” narrative was also blown apart.
Remember, mistakes and blunders were not made. Don’t let them get away with it. Refuse to comply.
