Gilead, the pharmaceutical company working to get a drug called remdesivir approved to treat COVID-19, allegedly sent death threats to a French doctor who claimed he cured COVID-19 with a combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin.

Dr. Didier Raoult made the allegation under oath in testimony before the French Parliament. The testimony was part of an official review that ensued after Raoult filed a complaint with the French judiciary on the death threats.

In other news in June, the U.S. FDA issued a warning that co-administration of remdesivir with hydroxychloroquine can reduce the effectiveness of the viral activity of the remdesivir.
