evys1bk0\">WASHINGTON \u2014 A federal prosecutor has opened a preliminary inquiry into whether an obscure New York doctor who won White House attention by claiming he could treat the coronavirus broke the law by falsely claiming that a hospital study of drugs he had promoted had won federal approval.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">The doctor, Vladimir Zelenko, wrongly claimed that the Food and Drug Administration had backed a study of a drug cocktail that he asserts is effective in treating Covid-19, the disease caused by the virus. Through a misdirected email, that claim came to the attention of<strong> Aaron Zelinsky, a federal prosecutor in Baltimore working on fraud cases arising out of the pandemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Dr. Zelenko, known as Zev, had claimed the study had the F.D.A.\u2019s approval to Jerome Corsi, a conservative commentator who figured in the special counsel\u2019s investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election. Mr. Corsi then repeated that claim in an email he mistakenly directed to Mr. Zelinsky instead of to the physician, he said in a podcast this week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Mr. Zelinsky, a former member of the special counsel\u2019s team that investigated Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, had dealt with Mr. Corsi while working on a criminal case that led to the conviction of Roger J. Stone Jr., President Trump\u2019s longtime friend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Mr. Corsi said that Mr. Zelinsky promptly checked and discovered that the study was not F.D.A.-approved, then requested all Mr. Corsi\u2019s communications with the doctor. Mr. Corsi\u2019s lawyer, David Gray, said Mr. Corsi voluntarily turned over the information. The inquiry<a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/vladimir-zev-zelenko-fox-news-trump-hydroxychloroquine-jerome-corsi\/2020\/04\/30\/82622456-8af2-11ea-ac8a-fe9b8088e101_story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> was first reported by The Washington Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">In an interview on Friday, Dr. Zelenko said that he was guilty of nothing more than sloppy wording.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">\u201cI\u2019m a clinician, not a researcher,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t understand fully the language of clinical research.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">He said the misunderstanding stemmed from a lecture he gave last month to a group of physicians over the videoconferencing app Zoom, which Mr. Corsi attended. During the lecture,<strong> Dr. Zelenko claimed that <a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/clinicaltrials.gov\/ct2\/show\/NCT04370782\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the clinical trial<\/a> he was helping organize, sponsored by St. Francis Hospital in New York, had been approved by the F.D.A<\/strong>. In fact, only the hospital\u2019s internal review board had approved it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Dr. Zelenko said he had the impression that his study had the government\u2019s seal of approval because he had spoken with Stephen M. Hahn, the F.D.A.\u2019s commissioner, who discussed his treatment with him and helped him locate medicine for the trial, he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">\u201cIn my mind, that led me to think it was F.D.A.-approved,\u201d Dr. Zelenko said. \u201cIn reality, it was a mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\">\n<div id=\"c-col-editors-picks\" class=\"css-j64t31\">\n<article class=\"css-5raq8g\">\n<h3 class=\"css-1p08cbr\">What Stone Soup Means to a Seasoned Chef<\/h3>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Dr. Zelenko said that he had not been contacted by the Justice Department, and that he learned of the inquiry from Mr. Corsi\u2019s public statements.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Mr. Corsi said he believed that the doctor never intended to deceive anyone. \u201cHe can\u2019t speak precisely about something he doesn\u2019t understand,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">A self-described \u201c<a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/04\/02\/technology\/doctor-zelenko-coronavirus-drugs.html\">simple country doctor<\/a>,\u201d <span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Dr. Zelenko proposed a three-drug cocktail of an antimalarial medication called hydroxychloroquine, the antibiotic azithromycin and zinc as a treatment for Covid-19 after seeing numerous patients with symptoms of the disease. He is not the first, nor the only, doctor to propose antimalarial drugs as a treatment.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">But his claims that he could cure the disease by treating it aggressively in the early stages, which he played up in a YouTube video that he addressed to Mr. Trump, caught the attention of the president\u2019s inner circle. After the video went viral, Mark Meadows, the White House chief of staff, contacted him. Rudolph W. Giuliani, Mr. Trump\u2019s personal lawyer, also publicly praised the doctor. The video has now been taken down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\"><strong>For weeks, Mr. Trump <a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/04\/06\/us\/politics\/coronavirus-trump-malaria-drug.html\">himself promoted hydroxychloroquine<\/a> as \u201cvery effective\u201d and possibly \u201cthe biggest game changer in the history of medicine.\u201d The right-wing news media <a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/04\/05\/us\/politics\/trump-hydroxychloroquine-coronavirus.html\">also seized on the potential<\/a> of antimalarial drugs as a treatment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Since then, more evidence has emerged that hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin may not be effective at treating the coronavirus, and may in fact be harmful because of the risk of severe side effects. The F.D.A. <a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/media\/137250\/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">warned in April<\/a> that hydroxychloroquine, either on its own or in combination with azithromycin, should not be administered to treat Covid-19 outside the hospital setting or in a clinical trial, saying it could cause heart rhythm problems.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">But Dr. Zelenko has remained firm in his conviction, sending regular updates about new studies and patient testimonials to a contact list that includes reporters and government officials in several countries. \u201cI am more emboldened,\u201d he said in a voice memo on April 22.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-axufdj evys1bk0\">Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin are now being used in several clinical trials to determine their efficacy against the virus, including a trial conducted by the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey and another by the pharmaceutical company Novartis, which is studying the effect of hydroxychloroquine alone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-pncxxs etfikam0\">Sharon LaFraniere reported from Washington, and Kevin Roose from San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p>SOURCE:https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/05\/01\/us\/coronavirus-doctor-zelenko-malaria-drug.html<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Doctor Vladimir Zelenco Who Promoted Malarial Drug (Plaquenil) Draws Scrutiny of Federal Prosectors In an interview, Dr. Vladimir Zelenko said he was guilty of nothing more than sloppy wording.
