# Claim table — Stella Immanuel / hydroxychloroquine Instagram post

| Claim | Status |
|---|---|
| Dr. Stella Immanuel publicly claimed she treated 350 COVID-19 patients with hydroxychloroquine/zinc and had no deaths. | Supported as her public claim. BBC and AP/FactCheck coverage recorded the 350-patient/no-death claim in 2020. It is not independently proven clinical-trial evidence. |
| Hydroxychloroquine/zinc was proven to cure COVID-19 or prevent deaths. | Not supported by major evidence reviewed here. FDA revoked its EUA after randomized data showed no benefit for death/recovery in hospitalized patients; WHO stopped its HCQ arm after evidence showed no mortality reduction; AP and FactCheck.org characterized the cure claim as false/unproven. |
| Anthony Fauci personally had her social-media accounts shut down. | Not established. Sources verify Facebook/Twitter/YouTube removed the viral video for COVID-misinformation-policy reasons; the gathered sources did not show proof that Fauci personally ordered the removal. |
| The video/post was removed or suppressed by platforms. | Supported in part. AP, FactCheck.org and BBC reported that major platforms removed the viral America’s Frontline Doctors/Immanuel video after it spread widely and was retweeted by Donald Trump. |
| The removed content involved claims that masks and lockdowns had no value and that HCQ was a cure/prevention. | Supported. AP summarized the viral video as making multiple COVID claims, including HCQ cure/prevention and attacks on masks/lockdowns. |
| Hydroxychloroquine is always dangerous and should never be used. | False/overbroad. FDA/WHO materials distinguish COVID use from approved uses for malaria, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis; those uses are separate medical decisions. |
| The post proves vaccines were forced because HCQ worked. | Not proven. The post’s vaccine/compliance conclusion is political argument, not a demonstrated factual result from the cited anecdote. |
