You wouldn't let it lie!
This results from this clinical trial should prove interesting.

Donald Trump drug to be tested on NHS staff with hopes it could prevent coronavirus
Study involving at least 20 NHS hospitals aims to establish whether anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine can fend off virus

Nope, my post on the Covid 19 America thread seems to have been heavily misconstrued by other posters - I made that post earlier today when I stopped for a bite at work - didn’t expect that kind of reaction and have since been prevented from responding there - so, let’s see how this clinical trial pans out, but it’s certainly an interesting development for our NHS.

How heavily misconstrued? You said the long and serious looking list of side effects for hydroxychloroquine someone posted were "about the same amount" as for paracetamol. Which would suggest to an unfamiliar observer that they'd be pretty safe taking the stuff without a prescription - as with paracetamol.
Do you not see how dangerous that could be? And if it was misconstrued then what did you mean by it?
This isn’t the thread to be continuing a discussion from another thread. My ability to reply on the appropriate thread has been removed before I got the opportunity to do so - so it’s now a moot point.
I understand that people are bored witless with this lockdown but spinning comments into hysteria surely can only be a passing distraction.

If you could back up your 'heavily misconstrued' comment with some sort of reference I for one would be happy to ask editor for your ban on that thread to be lifted. You're pretending you could if given the chance, but you can't which is now just dishonest.
It wasn't heavily misconstrued, and there's no hysteria as you're now claiming, that's just an insult to try to cover your having been called out on it .

My last comment on this.
If the editor gave a single fuck of me responding on the thread in question - he wouldn’t have banned me from it.
It’s no big deal, it could have been responded to easily and appropriately but fwiw - I was attempting to point out that many things come with a long list of side effects/warnings when taken.
But this hydroxychloroquine has been politicised to fuck now Trumps said he’s taken it so any objectivity of it will be thrown out the tainted window.

And off this thread you go too with another warning in your ear. Your faux 'objective' spiel is painfully transparent now, and has been called out too many times by too many posters. Think very carefully what you post next.
*edit: oh, it's pushed him into a temp ban. Oh dear, how sad, nevermind.

Possibly didn't die from Covid-19, then.

If he was tested and came back positive for having the virus, it would be a covid-19 death, no?

Brazil recently had to abandon its hydrochloroquine testing because patients being given it were so much more likely to die than the control group.
If you get crushed by a piano with covid19, what's the cause of death?

Of course you knew what you were doing. Blaming other posters won't wash.

Yeah, but maybe you should think about not being such a fucking cock. Up to you.

This may have been posted already as its a couple of weeks old but a good thread here on transmission risks which seems to confirm the evidence elsewhere that transmission is really concentrated on prolonged close contact (eg within households) and among the elderly (ie the elderly are more susceptible to contracting the disease in the first place, not just more vulnerable to the effects).

Bout time, don't really understand how someone can consistently be banned from so many threads and not get perma-binned.
Still I'd be a shit mod no doubt

it's the failure of thinking things through:
their freedom to not have to follow the guidelines does not trump other people's freedom to not want the idiots near them.

How deadly is COVID-19? A rigorous analysis of excess mortality and age-dependent fatality rates in Italy
We perform a counterfactual time series analysis on 2020 mortality data from towns in Italy using data from the previous five years as control. We find an excess mortality that is correlated in time with the official COVID-19 death rate, but exceeds it by a factor of at least 1.5. Our analysis...
Population fatality rate has got to 0.58% in Bergamo.
