Original Note:
This was an observational study, not a clinical trial. The Henry Ford team didn’t randomly treat patients & excluded 267 (≈10%) of the study population. A UK trial by Oxford, with 11,000+ patients, found no benefit of hydroxychloroquine for hospitalized COVID-19 patients. https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/02/health/hydroxychloroquine-coronavirus-detroit-study/index.html https://www.recoverytrial.net/news/statement-from-the-chief-investigators-of-the-randomised-evaluation-of-covid-19-therapy-recovery-trial-on-hydroxychloroquine-5-june-2020-no-clinical-benefit-from-use-of-hydroxychloroquine-in-hospitalised-patients-with-covid-19
