Brazilian health authorities say they will now recommend hydroxychloroquine to treat children and pregnant women for early treatment of Covid-19, and criticized the FDA's recent decision to revoke the emergency use of the drug

The press conference in Brasilia came hours after the FDA announced its decision, saying hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are unlikely to be effective in treating Covid-19 based on the latest scientific evidence."The studies referenced by the FDA today cannot be used as examples for Brazil or for the rest of the world," Mayra Pinheiro, a Health Ministry official said during the press conference.

"She also said, without presenting any evidence, that coronavirus cases in Brazil had gone down since May 20, when the Health Ministry approved new guidelines allowing the use of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine for all patients displaying mild, moderate and severe Covid-19 symptoms if both doctor and patient agree on the use of the drugs.

Yes. Early use of hydroxychloroquine with Azithromycin and zinc is helpful. You need to take it before the cytokine storm overtakes the body For it to be most effective

It's all about the money the drug is produce by 2 groups, a pharmaceutical group ,own by the president Bolsonaro personal friend and the military with generals having revenues, they're 1271 soldier in the Gov. 26 high ranked soldiers ,other 5 generals are ministers

VeryFakeNews

Hey media intern, I'd seek another job ASAP. Because when it comes out that scientific knowledge re: the action of HCQ on ALL caronaviruses was well understood all along, The people (already rioting, destroying shit, killing ppl, etc...) Are gonna be... A bit mad. At CNN.

Don't play with people lives especially coming from man who claimed covid is a little flu. The infections and deaths are evidence covid is not a little flu

Wow who hacked this account

Well we do not have health minister...and our president is insane

The same Brazil that has just had it's CV19 Hoax exposed for the world to se,e you mean, or has no-one informed you of the Facts again?

'The studies referenced by the FDA today cannot be used as examples for Brazil or for the rest of the world,' This is the actual quote. Please point to the legal authority of the FDA, an agency of usa to dictate policy to brazil. This is a fact, not criticism.

This is you right?

Brazil doesn’t have TDS, a far more serious disease.

Cancel Brazil 😂

Another CNN flip flop 😂😂

So CNN is admitting that President Trump was correct and all their propaganda was false.

Currently, brazilian health authorities are from the military, only following the political wave on cloroquine. The situation is absurd! Today, 1282 deaths from covid were registred and shopping centers are open! It's chaos! We do not have a plan to fight this pandemic and health

😐

Who cares what Brazil thinks🙄 They have a crises they need to focus on🙄

People call me Daunte

If Brazil wants to use it, let them. Not all countries approve the same drugs as another country.

Brazilian government are more fans of trump than trump himself...

Brazil? You're citing Brazil as knowledgable COVID experts? Brazil?

Dear Brazil, thanks for taking the lead on this! The world is watching closely. 99% of us already know what’s going to happen, but hey! Good on ya! Hope we’re wrong, but we’re not.

Oh shit, people are going to die... intentionally.
