Esta primeira versão de Medicamentos para prevenção da COVID-19: Orientação dinâmica da OMS aborda o uso de hidroxicloroquina para prevenção da COVID-19. Segue-se a publicação de uma anál...ise sistemática e NMA que reuniu dados de seis estudos com 6.059 participantes que não tinham COVID-19 e receberam hidroxicloroquina. Três estudos envolveram participantes que tiveram uma exposição conhecida a uma pessoa com infecção por SARS-CoV-2. Em resposta à divulgação dos dados de estudos, o GDG da OMS desenvolveu recomendações sobre a hidroxicloroquina, um agente anti-inflamatório que atua por meio do bloqueio dos receptores Toll-like, reduzindo a ativação das células dendríticas. É usada para tratar a artrite reumatoide e o lúpus eritematoso sistêmico. Tem um efeito antiviral contra muitos vírus in vitro, inclusive o SARS-CoV-2, mas não foi demonstrado um efeito antiviral clinicamente útil para nenhuma infecção viral.

COVID-19 vaccination rates also remain lowest in these ...communities compared with white people in the UK.
