US President Donald Trump (73) claims to take a malaria medication as a coronavirus prophylaxis. He has been taking hydroxychloroquine for about a week and a half, Trump said in the White House on Monday. He had heard “very good things” about the long-approved malaria preparation, Trump said. When asked for scientific evidence to benefit from such prophylaxis, Trump claimed that he had received many calls and many doctors and nurses were taking it as a precaution.

Trump is said to have coordinated the intake with the White House doctor. The US president is doing even more: he is also taking zinc to boost the immune system, Trump said. At the same time, he emphasized that all corona virus tests had recently been negative for him.

“Present of God”
Trump had repeatedly promoted hydroxychloroquine in March and April as therapy for patients suffering from Covid-19. The drug was a “gift from God,” he enthused at the time. At the end of April, however, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned of the alleged miracle cure: There is no reliable evidence of effectiveness against Covid-19, but the drug increases the risk of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias, it said. Previously, a study had found higher mortality in patients when taking the drug in combination with an antibiotic.

Hydroxychloroquine is also approved in the United States for the treatment of autoimmune lupus and arthritis. Several studies are ongoing to investigate the potential benefit of the drug in relation to Covid-19. The U.S. National Health Institute only announced Thursday that there is now a clinical trial of around 2,000 subjects to determine whether taking hydroxychloroquine with the antibiotic azithromycin can reduce hospitalization and deaths in the early stages of the disease.
