This is the percentage of those actually treated. I wonder how many were already being hospitalized before they got the treatment. If the answer is “all of them”, this is beyond impressive. :)

Yes that is very good. But most people don’t end up in the hospital after they are infected. I’ve heard 10% to 20%. if so that would take your .7% down by a factor of 5 to 10 for the full population of infected persons.

Gotta love this anecdotal treatment.

Look at France’s numbers. The graphics are looking better than any other country I’ve checked so far:

PLEASE NOTE FOLKS,the caveat:

I looked at the study from Dr. Didier Raoult ( the first and second one he published, the second study with 80 patients ).

The advantage of hydroxychloroqine is its potential reduction in length of stay of Covid-19 positive patients who are not that severely ill, reducing the burden on the hospitals. THIS IS STILL SIGNIFICANT!

But I also want to see lives saved !

I hope it also helps in significant reduction in mortality (especially for the very ill, e.g. on ventilators ), but widespread usage still needs to prove that.
