risk of death, 63.4% lower, RR 0.37, p = 1.00, treatment 0 of 75 (0.0%), control 1 of 102 (1.0%), continuity correction due to zero event (with reciprocal of the contrasting arm).
risk of mechanical ventilation, 89.7% lower, RR 0.10, p = 0.07, treatment 0 of 75 (0.0%), control 5 of 102 (4.9%), continuity correction due to zero event (with reciprocal of the contrasting arm).
risk of hospitalization, 85.7% lower, RR 0.14, p < 0.001, treatment 2 of 75 (2.7%), control 19 of 102 (18.6%).
Effect extraction follows pre-specified rules
prioritizing more serious outcomes. For an individual study the most serious
outcome may have a smaller number of events and lower statistical signficance,
however this provides the strongest evidence for the most serious outcomes
when combining the results of many trials.

practical, effective, and safe means should be used. Elimination of COVID-19
is a race against viral evolution. No treatment, vaccine, or intervention is
100% available and effective for all current and future variants. Denying the
efficacy of any method increases the risk of COVID-19 becoming endemic; and
increases mortality, morbidity, and collateral damage. We do not provide
