Re: "•A good clinical outcome and virological cure was obtained in 973 patients within 10 days (91.7%)."
A problem I have with this report is that it doesn't discuss what outcomes would have been expected WITHOUT hydroxychloroquine. If you have 91% favorable results among patients who are at death's door, then that's awesome! But if it's 91% favorable results among patients selected at random, then the medication might not be doing anything at all. The article does nothing to clear that up.

The new study, of which the abstract was released today, was performed at IHU Méditerranée Infection, Marseille, France. A cohort of 1061 COVID-19 patients, treated for at least 3 days with the Hydroxychloroquine-Azithromycin (HCQ-AZ) combination and a follow-up of at least 9 days was investigated.

Key findings are:

•No cardiac toxicity was observed.

•A good clinical outcome and virological cure was obtained in 973 patients within 10 days (91.7%).

A poor outcome was observed for 46 patients (4.3%); 10 were transferred to intensive care units, 5 patients died (0.47%) (74-95 years old) and 31 required 10 days of hospitalization or more.

The authors conclude that:

“The HCQ-AZ combination, when started immediately after diagnosis, is a safe and efficient treatment for COVID-19, with a mortality rate of 0.5%, in elderly patients. It avoids worsening and clears virus persistence and contagiosity in most cases.”
