The Nigerian government on Tuesday said it has not validated the use of hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of COVID-19, an obvious reaction to the viral video of Nigerian-born Dr Stella Immanuel that is still circulating social media.
Immanuel, also a Christian preacher, claimed in the video that she has successfully treated more than 350 COVID-19 patients using hydroxychloroquine, Zinc and Zithromax. Immanuel first made the claim on April 27 in a Twitter post in which she also showed support for American President Donald Trump’s backing for the use of chloroquine to treat the virus.
