In this double-blind, randomized trial, 821 asymptomatic persons with a high- or moderate-risk exposure to #SARSCoV2 were assigned to receive hydroxychloroquine or placebo within 4 days after the exposure. No benefit in preventing illness compatible with #COVID19 was found.
Congratulations #DGSOM2020! While you couldn't have the ceremony you deserve, please know that there are thousands of us cheering you on today!

In this autopsy series, the authors found that #SARSCoV2 has a tropism beyond the respiratory tract, including the kidneys, heart, liver, and brain. They speculate that tropism influences the course of #COVID19 disease and possibly aggravates preexisting conditions.
The US has now lost >80,000 American lives from #COVID19, with a log fatality curve unlike any other country.
Projection that toll will grow to ~190,000 deaths by August covid19-projections.com by @youyanggu (the most accurate to date)
And there is still no national plan.
It’s an exciting time to treat #HeartFailure, now with #FDA approval of #SGLT2i for HFrEF. Four proven therapies that, when combined, work together to save lives. It is time to put #QuadrupleTherapy into practice!
✅ Beta-Blocker
✅ ARNI
✅ MRA
✅ SGLT2-i
