ということで、これまで私がどう洋書(児童書)の多読多聴を楽しんできているの、一応のマイルストーンである100万語を通過したので、その過程の試行錯誤も交えてゆーくり話したいと思います。
まず最初に読み始めたのはNate The Great(#NTG)です。対象年齢はネイティブの5,6歳だと思います。

これまでそれなりに英語を学習してきた経験があったのと、ネイティブの5,6歳向けの本だということもあり、少し舐めていました。
読み始めてみるとなんか難しい。使われてる単語に馴染みのないものが結構混ざってるのです。ここで馴染みがない単語というのは人の動作や仕草を表す単語や日常単語です。

私の場合は大学受験や英検よりのアカデミックな語彙やTOEIC等のビジネスよりの語彙に偏ってしまっていたようで、日常生活を送る上で当たり前に知っているべき単語がわからなかったのです。
正直児童書難しい…やばい。と思いました。でも安心してください。ここからが多読(たくさん読む)の良さです。

17 CORRECTIONS issued to flawed @NEJM Brazil RCT claiming early hosp #HCQ #AZM ineffective—Cavalcanti et al had failed to disclose RCT didn’t exclude pts on #HCQ #AZM in community prior to hosp adm. Renders flawed RCT inconclusive—why isn’t it retracted?

2/ Important to note that the NEJM study authors concede that community use of #HCQ #AZM was widespread in Brazil, but a specific study exclusion criteria to previous HCQ AZM use was only added 5 days before the last patient was recruited for this Cavalcanti et al RCT.
3/ RCT now based on extremely controversial throw-away line in discussion: "outpatient use of these drugs (before adm) was infrequent.” No reference provided for this pivotal assumption
Additional flaws: only studied mild #COVID19 disease, in those at low risk who presented late

Kerala was one of the first states in southern India to offer its frontline workers #HCQ prophylaxis and implement EARLY treatment with HCQ for #COVID19 patients

2/ During my med training in Canada, I was fortunate to have opportunity to do international elective in Kerala. I recently spoke to former colleagues in Kerala. From symptom onset:
-avg 1.5d for COVID19 test result
-avg 3d for #HCQ #AZM admin for high-risk outpatients & hosp pts
-avg 1.5d for COVID19 test result
-avg 3d for #HCQ #AZM admin for high-risk outpatients & hosp pts
3/ Kerala State Medical Board study:
Early #HCQ #AZM treatment "led to decline in fatality rate as well as severity" of #COVID19
"Early admission of confirmed COVID19 pts & admin of HCQ AZM contributed in preventing progress of deadly #SARSCoV2 infection"

1/ Based on WHO website—its global “Solidarity” clinical trials only studying drugs, including #HCQ, in hospitalized #COVID19 pts. Similarly almost all HCQ COVID19 trials on clinicaltrials.gov re hospitalized pts or post-exposure prophylaxis. Some re pre-exposure prophylaxis
