HCQ for COVID-19
1st treatment shown to reduce risk in March 2020
 
*, now with p < 0.00000000001 from 417 studies, recognized in 46 countries.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine treatments. * >10% efficacy, ≥3 studies.
4,800+ studies for 102 treatments. c19hcq.org
Updated meta analysis including 7 new studies of high-risk outpatients, for a total of 12 studies, all showing significant benefit.
9 meta analyses show significant improvements with hydroxychloroquine for mortality1-4, hospitalization1, recovery5, combined death/hospitalization/cases6, cases7,8, and viral clearance9.
Currently there are 39 HCQ for COVID-19 early treatment studies, showing 76% lower mortality [61‑85%], 67% lower ventilation [-710‑99%], 31% lower ICU admission [1‑53%], and 41% lower hospitalization [28‑51%].

RI P T Should be Ramped-Up Immediately as Key to the Pandemic Crisis” 2 Conflicts of Interest: Dr. Risch acknowledges past advisory consulting work with two of the more than 50 manufacturers of hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin and doxycycline. This past work was not related to any of these three medications and was completed more than two years T ago. He has no ongoing, planned or projected relationships with any of these companies, nor any SC U Dr. Korman’s thesis is that no available treatments are effective in preventing hospitalization for AN the overwhelming majority of COVID-19 patients, and that potential hazards are associated with use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) + azithromycin (AZ) (1). The studies that I reviewed (2) M contradict this. Dr. Korman superficially describes the same studies that I discussed at length, ED except with negative adjectives and numerous terms in “quotation” marks to imply, without evidence, their lack of validity. He calls all these studies “anecdotal,” to distinguish from the ED IT “magic” of randomized controlled trials (3), when government medical and scientific regulatory agencies of western countries around the world routinely use epidemiologic evidence to establish N facts of causation, benefit and harm (4). This disingenuous argument has been discussed at U length elsewhere (5). Dr. Korman’s only novel point is that macrolide antibiotics such as AZ can AL lead to development of antibiotic resistance. Such instances can occur but are uncommon, and this issue has seemingly not been of substantial concern in the hundreds of millions of uses of G IN AZ world-over during the past 30 years. RI Drs. Peiffer-Smadja and Costagliola (6) discuss the data in some of the studies that I reviewed. O They first question the small non-randomized trial by Gautret et al. (7). I also have concerns about subject baseline differences between the treated and untreated subjects in that study and thus limit my conclusions to the 26 treated patients. Gautret et al. (7) provided individualsubject data on all 26 which enabled me to carry out my own Cox-regression analyses. The data are that 14 patients received HCQ only, 6 received HCQ+AZ, and under intention-to-treat RI P other potential conflicts-of-interest to..
