That specific journal was targeted because they published an article in favour of Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin back in July by a team of French doctors (https://www.journalajmah.com/index.php/AJMAH/article/view/30...)
That same article was then cited by French member of parliament Martine Wonner as being sufficiently peer reviewed and having the same value as a paper published by Lancet, with intent to let doctors prescribe hcq as they see fit.

It’s a sad state of affairs when science has been hijacked to score political points but I guess that’s nothing new.
