There is no study from Mexico claiming hydroxychloroquine cures coronavirus; the referenced trial was still recruiting patients.

So I can find no study out of Mexico, as Alex is claiming, that hydroxychloroquine can cure coronavirus. However, if you just Google those words, you'll find a posting on clinicaltrials.gov, which is recruiting patients for a double-blind study being put on by the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases in Mexico. According to the posting, the study is supposed to begin on March 23rd, 2020, but would not complete until March 21st. I'm sorry, March 22nd, 2021. The results of these trials will likely be far more illuminating than the small-scale studies we have access to at this point, but the results are a ways off in the future. There's no way Alex could know the results of the study, but if he was just reading headlines, you might see something about a study about hydroxychloroquine in Mexico and just make up the rest.
