From the paper, "At day6 post-inclusion, 70% of hydroxychloroquine-treated patients were virologicaly cured comparing with 12.5% in the control group"

Sample size is only 36. 20 treated patients. 16 control.

A tweet I saw yesterday said 95% recovered on the medicine. 90% of the control group still contagious. Haven't looked up the post again, but it was something I found either on that same twitter feed or a source he was pulling from.

From the doc [0]: "At day6 post-inclusion, 100% of patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin combination were virologicaly cured comparing with 57.1% in patients treated with hydroxychloroquine only, and 12.5% in the control group (p<0.001)."

Don’t 98%+ recover already?

I believe average hospital stay for those that need to be hospitalized can be upwards of 3 weeks though. So something that cuts it down to a week or avoids the need for the ICU bed altogether would be a game changer.

Wat?

There are widespread report of lung damage for severe Covids patients who recover.
