Geneva, June 18 (RHC)-- The World Health Organization has halted the trial test of the drug hydroxychloroquine to treat the coronavirus.

According to the WHO recent trials showed that the anti-malaria drug does not result in the reduction of mortality of hospitalised COVID-19 patients.  "Patients who have already started hydroxychloroquine but who have not yet finished their course in the trial may complete their course or stop at the discretion of the supervising physician," the WHO statement said.
