11th treatment shown to reduce risk in January 2021
 
*, now known with p = 0.00016 from 14 studies.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine complementary and synergistic treatments. * >10% efficacy in meta analysis with ≥3 clinical studies.
3,900+ studies for 60+ treatments. c19early.org
RCT with 157 patients treated with honey and nigella sativa, and 156 control patients, showing significantly faster recovery and viral clearance.
Honey (1gm/kg/day) plus encapsulated nigella sativa seeds (80mg/kg/day) orally in 2-3 divided doses daily for up to 13 days.
risk of death, 81.9% lower, RR 0.18, p = 0.01, treatment 2 of 157 (1.3%), control 11 of 156 (7.1%), NNT 17, all cases.
risk of death, 67.1% lower, RR 0.33, p = 0.49, treatment 0 of 107 (0.0%), control 1 of 103 (1.0%), NNT 103, relative risk is not 0 because of continuity correction due to zero events (with reciprocal of the contrasting arm), moderate cases.
risk of death, 78.8% lower, RR 0.21, p = 0.03, treatment 2 of 50 (4.0%), control 10 of 53 (18.9%), NNT 6.7, severe cases.
risk of no recovery, 83.6% lower, HR 0.16, p < 0.001, treatment 107, control 103, inverted to make HR<1 favor treatment, moderate cases.
risk of no recovery, 75.2% lower, HR 0.25, p < 0.001, treatment 50, control 53, inverted to make HR<1 favor treatment, severe cases.
risk of no viral clearance, 81.9% lower, HR 0.18, p < 0.001, treatment 107, control 103, inverted to make HR<1 favor treatment, moderate cases.
risk of no viral clearance, 76.9% lower, HR 0.23, p < 0.001, treatment 50, control 53, inverted to make HR<1 favor treatment, severe cases.
