“It sure took you a LONG Time to find this Recommendation!”
I have more important things to do than answer questions in coffee rooms. Among other things, I am involved one way or another in FIVE current or proposed COVID-19 studies. I had not been in this chat for five days.
And regarding the ATS guidelines, you failed to note two things. First, you neglected the following:
For patients with COVID‐19 who are well‐enough to be managed as outpatients, we make no suggestion either for or against hydroxychloroquine (or chloroquine). 18% for intervention, 36% no suggestion, and 46% against intervention.
For hospitalized patients with COVID‐19 who have no evidence of pneumonia, we make no suggestion either for or against hydroxychloroquine (or chloroquine). 8% for intervention, 50% no suggestion, and 42% against intervention.
You also failed to note that those recommendations are dated April 3 and do not reflect updated knowledge.
