Zinc for COVID-19
2nd treatment shown to reduce risk in July 2020
 
*, now known with p = 0.0000013 from 44 studies, recognized in 11 countries.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine complementary and synergistic treatments. * >10% efficacy in meta analysis with ≥3 clinical studies.
4,000+ studies for 60+ treatments. c19early.org
Retrospective 2,148 COVID-19 recovered patients in Jordan, showing no significant differences in the risk of severity and hospitalization with zinc prophylaxis.
risk of hospitalization, 25.4% higher, RR 1.25, p = 0.21, treatment 41 of 326 (12.6%), control 178 of 1,822 (9.8%), adjusted per study, odds ratio converted to relative risk, multivariable.
risk of severe case, 13.0% higher, RR 1.13, p = 0.46, treatment 46 of 326 (14.1%), control 214 of 1,822 (11.7%), adjusted per study, odds ratio converted to relative risk, multivariable.
Effect extraction follows pre-specified rules prioritizing more serious outcomes. Submit updates

PhD Refat Nimer, Omar Khabour, Samer Swedan, Hassan Kofahi
Bosnian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, doi:10.17305/bjbms.2021.7009
The BJBMS publishes an "Advanced online" manuscript format as a free service to authors in order to expedite the dissemination of scientific findings to the research community as soon as possible after acceptance following peer review and corresponding modification (where appropriate). An "Advanced online" manuscript is published online prior to copyediting, formatting for publication and author proofing, but is nonetheless fully citable through its Digital Object Identifier (doi®). Nevertheless, this "Advanced online" version is NOT the final version of the manuscript. When the final version of this paper is published within a definitive issue of the journal with copyediting, full pagination, etc. the new final version will be accessible through the same doi and this "Advanced online" version of the paper will disappear.
