Adding to this, there are at least two reasonably sized ongoing trials of HCQ with appropriate randomization and blinding in North America alone (I believe there are a number of others elsewhere). I would encourage everyone to withhold judgement until either they post results, or a similarly reliable alternative data source appears.
Target size of 3000 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04308668 https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04308668).
Target size of 400 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04329923 https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04329923).
- jamesblonde 7y agoCan Minnesota really recruit 3k people in the next 2 weeks? The second Patch trial won't report until 2021.
- Reelin 7y agoYeah I was wondering about that myself. There are 5 participating locations listed, but even then it's a large sample size and an aggressive time frame. On the other hand, just about any healthy adult who recently came into contact with a confirmed positive case is eligible to enroll so maybe it won't be so difficult under the circumstances?
