HCQ is a much misunderstood substance as a result of the political furor around it.
It is not a miracle drug and it is not useless for all medical purposes. It is a relatively mild anti-malarial drug with some anti-inflammatory properties. It is prescribed for autoimmune disorders in addition to malaria. Its anti-inflammatory/immune regulation effects are probably not that strong but its safety profile is well understood.
