Was an Effective Cure for Covid-19 Withheld?

Was an Effective Cure for Covid-19 Withheld?
According to Bryan Fischer, research at the National Institutes of Health in 2005 published in the Virology Journal titled “Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread” concluded: “chloroqine can effectively reduce the establishment of infection and spread of SARS-CoV.” As SARS and Covid-19 are  similar and use the same host cell receptor, the NIH knew in 2005 what the French expert Dr. Didier Raoult recently affirmed: “we confirm the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine associated with azithromycin in the treatment of COVID-19 and its potential effectiveness in the early impairment of contagiousness.”
The question before us is why was this effective treatment withheld?  Was it withheld so that Big Pharma could bank the profits from vaccines and more expensive and less successful treatments?
