Oh, and here's from the original paper:

"...Moreover, the group observed that the conversion time of SARS-CoV-2 PCR test results from positive to negative among aspirin-using COVID-positive patients was significantly shorter, and the disease duration was two-three days shorter, depending upon the patients' pre-existing conditions."

Aspirin is strongly associated with Reyes Syndrome in children with viral infections. Might not be a great idea at least for kids.
