HCQ for COVID-19
1st treatment shown to reduce risk in March 2020
 
*, now known with p < 0.00000000001 from 422 studies, recognized in 42 countries.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine complementary and synergistic treatments. * >10% efficacy in meta analysis with ≥3 clinical studies.
3,900+ studies for 60+ treatments. c19hcq.org
Retrospective 807 hospitalized patients, no statistically significant reduction in mortality or the need for mechanical ventilation with HCQ or HCQ+AZ, or for death with HCQ+AZ, HR 1.83, p=0.009 for HCQ mortality.
The preprint notes that HCQ was more likely to be prescribed to patients with more severe disease, however this was deleted in the published version.
425 patients had dispositions of death or discharge by the end of the study period and thus did not encounter the issue of length-biased sampling and differential rates of right-censored observations among the groups.
risk of death, 11.0% lower, HR 0.89, p = 0.74, treatment 39 of 148 (26.4%), control 18 of 163 (11.0%), adjusted per study, HCQ+AZ w/dispositions.
risk of death, 1.0% lower, HR 0.99, p = 0.98, treatment 30 of 114 (26.3%), control 18 of 163 (11.0%), adjusted per study, HCQ w/dispositions.

Outcomes of Hydroxychloroquine Usage in United States Veterans Hospitalized with COVID-19
Joseph Magagnoli, Siddharth Narendran, Felipe Pereira, Tammy H Cummings, James W Hardin, S Scott Sutton, Jayakrishna Ambati
Med, doi:10.1016/j.medj.2020.06.001
In this nationwide retrospective analysis of 807 patients hospitalized with COVID-19, Magagnoli et al. report that, after adjusting for several COVID-19-relevant clinical and demographic characteristics, hydroxychloroquine use, with or without azithromycin, did not improve mortality or reduce the need for mechanical ventilation compared to no hydroxychloroquine use.
