参考译文：最近，世界上历史上最悠久、最受尊敬的医学期刊之一《柳叶刀》发表了一篇关于新冠肺炎患者接受羟氯喹治疗的研究，研究的结论非常可怕：羟基氯喹会增加心律不齐，并降低住院生存率。

第二句：

This result was treated as authoritative, and major drug trials were immediately halted – because why treat anyone with an unsafe drug?

参考译文：此结论被视为具有权 威性，大型药物试验都立即停止，因为为什么要使用不安全的药来治疗任何人?

Now, that Lancet study has been retracted, withdrawn from the literature entirely, at the request of three of its authors who “can no longer vouch for the veracity of the primary data sources”.

参考译文：现在，这份《柳叶刀》的研究已应其三位作者的要求完全从文献中撤回，他们表示“不再能保证主要数据源的准确性”。
