Remdesivir Does Not Reduce COVID Mortality (or shorten hospital stay) - according to the results of a large long term WHO study:

"Study: Remdesivir Does Not Reduce COVID Mortality
By Ralph Ellis

October 19, 2020 -- A large study sponsored by the World Health Organization found that remdesivir doesn’t help hospitalized patients with COVID-19 survive and doesn’t even shorten the recovery time of those who do survive."

"The WHO-sponsored study was conducted from March 22 to Oct. 4 and involved 11,330 patients from 405 hospitals in 30 countries. Patients were given remdesivir and three other drugs singly or in combination."

"But the WHO-sponsored study said remdesivir and the other drugs just didn’t work."

“The unpromising overall findings from the regimens tested suffice to refute early hopes, based on smaller or non-randomized studies, that any will substantially reduce inpatient mortality, initiation of ventilation or hospitalisation duration,” the study said.
