>> Do you also get that there's no way to prove HCQ's efficacy at clinical trial without infecting the subjects

I don't even comprehend your point.

It is not different from clinical trials for cancer. A sick person comes in, they agree to participate in the clinical trial, and they are randomized into one of multiple treatment options. Which may [or may not] include placebo.

If it is determined a treatment option is so efficacious that it is unethical not to offer a given treatment to the entire study, the study will be stopped and the offer will be extended.

This is done all the time.
