I know I keep kicking this dead horse, but it's important that people don't think this really changes much in terms of action needed to this point. There have been two major studies. Neither found positive results that were statistically significant in changing outcomes of death. In one death rate went up from 13-14%, this more recent study it went down from 11% to 8% but due to the way the study done it was deemed statistically insignificant.
Not to say it is not positive, as it shortened avg. recovery time from 15 to 11 days. But at this point there is no data supporting that it will save lives directly. Shortening that recovery time can help clear up hospital beds, which is important. Lastly, it's important to note that possible side effects are such that there's probably a lot of overlap for being at risk to side effects and being at high risk for dying from COVID-19.
Not trying to be a downer, because this is positive news, but people need to not get overly optimistic about this being a game changer, because it is not YET.
