More info is always better but NY's trial started less than 6 days ago. It was thought that it took 6 days to recover on HCQ. So it seems likely that the 5 that haven't recovered yet are exactly that - still infected and haven't recovered yet. After 6 days how many of them will recover? Even if it takes all 5 20 days to become virus free that's excellent results with the "Trump cocktail."
God forbid 3 of the remaining 5 infected people should die, that would still chop the fatality rate down to .5%, while reducing the recovery time to about 1/3. With 0 side effects!
No matter how you might classify results like that, still well worth doing! Ends scary pandemic with no cure, leaving it as nasty flu.
I really look forward to reading all the details of the study; controls, methodology, etc. Hopefully it's a well designed study. Hopefully they're transparent with the details.
Tougher to study possible preventative use of this drug. It'll be nice when we have enough supply to try that ...
I'd say Raoult ignited a small fire and Trump crashed an oil supertanker on it.
You can't deny it really gained traction only when Trump shouted about it.

Its not really Trumps cocktail as if he was the first person to tout this, more like the doctors in france, but i get your point.
