Last week, herd immunity was questionable and neither Hydroxychloroquine nor Remdesivir were looking good. Today, the reverse. Everyone who said we should use data to make decisions has to tell us which week the data is accurate. Are we good yet?

It has been floating around since the Ebola virus, a drug looking for an indication. I hate to prejudge the NIAID trial prior to critically appraising the interim data, let alone the full data set, but it seems fair to remain skeptical - particularly of a large effect size.
-
Given that the Rem. was stopped early, is not well powered, showed limited benefit, no mortality difference..why is Fauci saying it is the new standard of care? And MSM agrees?

Without seeing the raw data the effect size seems impressive. Ideally a "trend" towards mortality benefit means a bigger trial might show us that result.. unfortunately now it will be hard and possibly deemed (by pharma) "unethical" to enroll pts in such trials
-
I think we still have full trial set data coming after whatever gets released today - enrollment only closed 9 days ago. Trials in Europe have enrolled massive numbers. This will probably be useful:https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04315948 …

The Rem. death rate was slightly HIGHER than placebo. (14% vs. 13%). This is why Fauci said not statistically different. He did NOT say it was higher.
