There are several major pharmaceutical companies that have ramped up production of hydroxychloroquine in a big way. Novartis just announced they are donating 130 million doses to the USA. That’s 130 Million doses, and they already have 50 Million doses ready. Bayer donated 3 Million, and Teva is donating 6 Million. I suspect some of these “secret trials” are not so secret in the pharmaceutical industry.
But the ‘secret trial’ is for a drug combo, not hydroxychloroquine by itself.
Chloroquine is approved for compassionate use along with azithromycin. All physicians have to do is ask for approval and the only thing the feds are asking for is documentation on the results.

I saw an interview with a NY doc, he said they’re already using it and so far no deaths at his hospital. He said it definitely improves recovery.
