I read that a while ago. It was pretty much early when doctors were prescribing HCQ, then started ODing them so that they could restrict HCQ from being used.
They gave patients 2,400mg in the first day of treatment, instead of the recommended 200-400mg. Doses over 1500mg are associated with fatality, so patients received a potentially lethal dose.
Pure evil.
Edit: Corrected figures. I originally referenced a news report I watched regarding a specific hospital in the UK (which gave doses even more lethal than the official recommended deadly doses). From the linked article, it wasn't just a one off hospital making a mistake. Many hospitals across the UK were instructed to give dangerously high doses of hydroxychloroquine.

This happened in the UK.

Your math is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off. Read the article again.
Thanks. I've corrected my figures.
