This study aimed to assess the effect of colchicine on risk of Institute of Health Research of Santiago de Compostela, Santiago de Compostela, Spain hospitalization due to COVID‐19; and its effect on susceptibility to and severity of 4 the virus in patients with COVID‐19. We carried out a population‐based case‐ Consortium for Biomedical Research in Epidemiology & Public Health (CIBER en Epidemiología y Salud Pública‐CIBERESP), University of Santiago de Compostela, Santiago de Compostela, Spain 5 Department of Medical Sciences, iBiMED‐ Institute of Biomedicine, University of Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal 6 Centro de Salud Concepción Arenal, Santiago de Compostela, Spain control study. The following groups were applied: (1) to assess risk of hospitalization, cases were patients with a positive PCR who were hospitalized due to COVID‐19, and controls without a positive PCR; (2) to assess susceptibility to COVID‐19, cases were patients with a positive PCR (hospitalized and non‐hospitalized), and the same controls; (3) to determine potential severity, cases were subjects with COVID‐19 hospitalized, and controls patients with COVID‐19 nonhospitalised. Different electronic, linked, administrative health and clinical databases were used to extract 7 Centro de Investigación Biomédica en Red de Enfermedades Cardiovasculares (CIBERCV), Santiago de Compostela, Spain 8 data on sociodemographic variables, comorbidities, and medications dispensed. The study covered 3060 subjects with a positive PCR who were hospitalized, 26 757 Research Group on Statistics, Econometrics and Health (GRECS), University of Girona, Girona, Spain with a positive PCR who were not hospitalized, and 56 785 healthy controls.

Our results would neither support the prophylactic use of colchicine for prevention of the infection or hospitalization in any type of patient, nor justify the withdrawal of colchicine treatment due to a higher risk of contracting COVID‐19.
