US President Donald Trump has backed the anti-malarial drug for COVID-19 prevention and treatment, prompting governments to bulk-buy.

The World Health Organization declared Wednesday that clinical preliminaries of the medication hydroxychloroquine will continue as it scans for potential coronavirus medicines.

On May 25, the WHO declared it had incidentally suspended the preliminaries to direct a wellbeing audit, which has now finished up there is "no explanation" to change the manner in which the preliminaries are led.
