Conclusion
A country’s COVID fatality rate is inversely related to its prevalence of malaria. This is a real-world, observational, epidemical comparison of two populations with markedly disparate COVID outcomes. Using the best available data from JHU, we find that one group has 900,000 more COVID deaths than the other group. The countries with the world’s highest per capita use of the antimalarial AV-PG have the world’s best COVID outcomes. The countries with the world’s highest per capita use of the antimalarial artemisinin have the world’s best COVID outcomes. The best available compilation of data demonstrates that countries which prohibit early, outpatient treatment with antimalarials and other agents have poor COVID outcomes.... The best available data compilations indicates that countries with the highest usage rates of these two newer antimalarial agents, artemisinin and AV-PG, experienced 95% fewer COVID deaths than DWN.
