Here we perform the test HCQ mono versus comparison group, and assess its sensitivity to the variants of the data under different assumptions regarding deteriorated and untested patients. As is evident from this, the strength of the evidence for the positive effect of HCQ mono over the comparison group is highly sensitive to the assumptions regarding what to do with the deteriorated or untested patients. Performing a Bayesian A/B test, we found that for the original data, there was strong statistical evidence for the positive effect of HCQ mono improving the chances of viral reduction when compared to the comparison group. ./cache/cord-321337-tg8kfiot.txt ./txt/cord-321337-tg8kfiot.txt
