To be exact: there were
never “17,000 deaths;” it was always a hypothetical extrapolation of people that
could have died, based on “unreliable” (eg,
actually, fraudulent) databases on top of the previously mentioned, problematic late-stage RECOVERY-trial-type dosing and timing.
Still,
Josh Cohen, a
Forbes.com PhD senior healthcare columnist, used this publication to headline an absurdly biased op-ed against HCQ, stating that Trump’s HCQ proposal was “
Linked To 17,000 Deaths.”
Forbes’ Tufts, Harvard, and the University of Pennsylvania- trained
“healthcare analyst” misrepresented or appeared to not understand the now-retracted study methodology or projections.
