On Sunday, March 29, the US Department of Health and Human Services accepted 30 million doses of hydroxychloroquine sulfate from Novartis and 1 million doses of chloroquine phosphate from Bayer. The medicines, which were donated to the Strategic National Stockpile, may be used in formal clinical trials to assess the drug's efficacy in treating COVID-19. The US Food and Drug Administration also issued an emergency use authorization allowing doctors to prescribe the donated drugs to hospitalized teen and adult patients with COVID-19 who are unable to participate in a clinical trial.

The moves follow the publication of studies in February and March suggest that the drugs inhibit SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in monkey cells grown in the lab. The drugs are cheap and considered safe, although they can cause severe side effects, including heart problems. President Donald Trump touted the drugs as ready-to-go in a White House briefing on March 19, saying they “could be a game changer” and that “even if things don’t go as planned, it’s not going to kill anybody.”
