Good to see.  Oral drugs & injections, so these treatments (when validated & approved) could be done outside hospitals, right?   I was a little surprised that it was an average of 5 days after symptoms showed that treatment started.  I'd hope that a quicker start would do even better.  ("no significant differences between the treatment groups were measured in these outcomes in the 51 patients who were treated 7 days or more after symptom onset")

"Public health ordinance in Hong Kong required all patients tested positive for COVID-19 be admitted to hospital."   They chose patients from those admitted (screened 80% of all Hong Kong patients). So these are likely primarily (80%) mild cases, but they indicate 75% have abnormal chest x-rays.   Still, out of 127 cases, it would be unusual to not have any deaths.  The two groups matched quite well, but the control group had somewhat fewer comorbidities (good).
