Two small cohorts worth of anecdote from France (link to actual study/report inside story)

Anecdotal lab research from China indicating hydroxychloroquine is more effective than chloroquine at inhibiting SARS-CoV-2

I don't blame Fauci for stating evidence is anecdotal...because barring a double-blind placebo study (which I understand is currently underway in New York) there isn't clinical proof of efficacy for treating COVID-19. The medical world doesn't know if it works only in mild cases, or mild and severe cases, or also in critical patients, or not at all, or if its impacts are significant or minor.

"Cure" is waaaaaaaaaaaay too strong a statement to make, with absolutely zero evidence to back it up.

I would submit, however, that global anecdotes are beginning to add up...
