The World Health Organization (WHO) said Wednesday it’s stopping an arm of a clinical trial that was analyzing hydroxychloroquine against COVID-19.

The trial’s executive group and principal investigators made the decision based on evidence from a separate trial in the United Kingdom which recently found hydroxychloroquine had no impact on mortality from the new disease.
