RE: Coronavirus-realistic fear or hyped?
Again, this is why trials are being done. High dose chloroquine looks to be deadly. What has long been known is that both can have a deadly affects when QT prolongation happens. Some patients WILL develop deadly arrhythmias as a side effect.

France has recorded 100 health incidents and four fatalities linked to experimental drugs for those with the coronavirus since late March. Three other patients had to be revived, and 82 incidents were considered "serious."

The incidents were roughly evenly split between hydroxychloroquine and HIV antivirals lopinavir-ritonavir.

Roughly half the study participants were given a dose of 450 milligrams of chloroquine twice daily for five days, while the rest were prescribed a higher dose of 600 milligrams for 10 days. Within three days, researchers started noticing heart arrhythmias in patients taking the higher dose. By the sixth day of treatment, 11 patients had died, leading to an immediate end to the high-dose segment of the trial.
