UAE: Use of Hydroxychloroquine no longer recommended

Hydroxychloroquine should not be used to prevent Covid-19 and the UAE is no longer recommending its use, said a top Abu Dhabi-based doctor, who is part of the panel of the World Health Organization (WHO).

Dr Emmanuel Nsutebu, chief of infectious diseases at Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City, said that based on research and evidence, the experts came to the conclusion that hydroxychloroquine, which was initially used in the UAE, cannot prevent the infection.

Dr Emmanuel noted that hydroxychloroquine is no longer recommended in the UAE too.
