Switzerland did indeed ban HCQ from about May 27th until June 11th. Thanks everyone. Very solid proof HCQ works well

I'm trying to confirm the dates on this graph:



So far, I've found these leads:

Switzerland withdraws Trump's Malaria drug from circulation
The business of drugs against the Coronavirus is flourishing. Swissmedic has now stopped shipments of the hydroxychloroquine touted by the US President.

EU governments ban malaria drug for COVID-19, trial paused as safety fears grow

PARIS/LONDON/MILAN (Reuters) - European governments moved on Wednesday to halt the use of anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 patients, and a second global trial was suspended, further blows to hopes for a treatment promoted by U.S. President Donald Trump.

The moves by France, Italy and Belgium followed a World Health Organization decision on Monday to pause a large trial of hydroxychloroquine due to safety concerns.


So it's totally believable that Switzerland followed suit on the same day. I just need to prove it.

Here is the website of the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health:

Haven't found anything supporting or refuting it there.

Ah, here is the relevant quote to search for, reinstating HCQ:

The OFSP decided to lift the measures put in place for its prescription and dispensing. The Plaquenil® and Zentiva® Hydroxychloroquine can be re-ordered directly from the wholesaler.

Part of the restriction was also that they wanted it to be available for RA and Lupus patients instead.

This is a document saying that it's ok to use it for acute care again cause the shortage is over. Dated June 8 2020.

It doesn't matter. Trump has caused Covid deaths to quadruple, and all hydroxychloroquine has become totally ineffective due to a spell cast by a LibbyFuck Gypsy who didn't want to lose her food stamps.

Please let me know ( p@patrick.net ) if you have proof of when the Swiss banned HCQ. It seems very likely to have simply gone along with the EU, but proof would be good.

"Seit der Veröffentlichung einer grossen Studie in der angesehenen medizinischen Fachzeitschrift "The Lancet" am 22. Mai wurde der Mythos jedoch entlarvt: Die Studie kam zum Schluss, weder Chloroquin noch sein Derivat Hydroxychloroquin hätten bei "Patienten mit Covid-19 Nutzen" gezeigt, möglicherweise erhöhten die Moleküle sogar das Risiko von Tod... Seit der Veröffentlichung der neuesten Daten empfiehlt die Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Infektiologie die Verwendung von Hydroxychloroquin bei der Behandlung von Patienten mit Covid-19 nicht mehr und wird ihre Empfehlungen entsprechend revidieren.""

In English:

"Since the publication of a large study in the prestigious medical journal "The Lancet" on 22 May, the myth has been debunked: the study concluded that neither chloroquine nor its derivative hydroxychloroquine had shown any benefit in" patients with Covid-19", and the molecules may even increase the risk of death. .. Since the publication of the latest data, the Swiss Society of infectiology no longer recommends the use of hydroxychloroquine in the treatment of patients with Covid-19 and will revise its recommendations accordingly."

Man, this is so EVIL. The Lancet study was fraudulent, and is now retracted.

Now it seems like hundreds of thousands have died just because people didn't want Trump to be right.

It's pretty much like 1984 but with the web instead of newspapers. Articles citing the fraudulent study without correction are pushed to the forefront of search results. When you control the past you control the future.
