So, 7% got the virus. How many died? Kinda important question.
RE: So, 7% got the virus. How many died? Kinda important question.
How many died is not the issue in this study. Let’s not conflate treatment with prophylaxis.
The question is now many were INFECTED. Period.
Better question is: what is the percentage of people who are not on HCL who get the virus?
If that number is 40 to 50% then clearly HCL is having a huge positive impact. 7% is better than 50%
See Global. Stop reading.
Good question.
This tends to go against the Rheumy that we read about, in the past few weeks, who said that NONE of her patients, who were on the HCQ maintenance drug, had contracted CCP flu.
Now, that was just one doc, but...
And, like you said.....just 7% got the virus, per this study.
