I'm not rooting against chloroquine (or any other therapy, and I don't think anyone else is either: you'd need to be a monster to want people to keep dying, keep getting sick, etc.
I am, however, vehemently opposed to sloppiness. It's tempting to say "The stakes are too high to be careful--let's just go with what've got" Nothing could be further from the truth--things need to be done carefully because the stakes are so high. Suppose we go all in on chloroquine and it doesn't actually work. Now we've got a big pile of useless stuff AND fewer resources, fewer staff (since they get sick too), and so on.
