Please provide a link to your assertion that these worthless medications (for Covid) were on the "WHO list". 

 

It was not WHO but the "Treatment Guidelines for COVID-19 " from the Department of Disease Control (thai), published in march 2020.

 

https://ddc.moph.go.th/viralpneumonia/eng/file/guidelines/g_treatment.pdf

 

"Chloroquine" (250 -to 1000 mg per day)

 

In 2020, Thailand was using azithromycin as well.

 

But everything changed end of 2020/start of 2021...

 

Now, on the new version the guidelines, those 2 molecules have been droped.

 

"Chloroquine, Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin are not recommended for the treatment of COVID-19"

 

 

[internationalism]

chloroquine is still used in thailand, that according to the last sentence in quoted article.

 

where is the newer version of those guidelines, I can't find them
