This has happened ...

My Father who is 79 not in the best health but good for his age. He tested postive for Covid 19
Over a week ago and only had mild symptoms . Thankfully.

This leads me to the issue of hydroxychloroquine.. and its precived success in outcomes

If he was given hydroxychloroquine( HE WAS NOT) should I have concluded this was the reason he only had mild symptoms, based on his age and the news on who is at greater risk

But if he had been given it and with all the info on who's being impacted, by covid the conclusion would have been the hydroxychloroquine saved him , and perhaps his doctor would draw the same conclusions and prescribed to others ..

when what actual happen wasHe just kicked it with no medical Treatment other hydration and tylenol. And he just stayed at home

His recovery isnt Anecdotal ... but if he was on hydroxychloroquine it would be considered anecdotal
