Several clinical trials of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) have been administering huge doses of the drug to COVID patients—doses that can easily be lethal.

Obviously, if the inexpensive HCQ is said to fail, and is called dangerous, then it is sidelined, in favor of far more expensive (and profitable) drugs.

New statistical study shows a pattern of adverse and counter-intuitive effects resulting from governmental measures (‘lockdown’) to limit the spread of COVID-19. In short, the more counter measures taken by a government the worse the outcome.

Testing theories with data is how theories are validated. Yet the need to “‘kick the tires’ on a theory is often overlooked when the media assesses extreme weather.

Today we look at the NASA data from six stations from the US Southeast region. In every case, the trends were warmed up by what NASA calls “adjusting”.
