Scientists from George Washington University looked at medical data of more than 110,000 U.S. patients from 64 hospitals.
Those with moderate symptoms, meaning not in the ICU or on a ventilator, who took aspirin in the first 24 hours, showed a lower risk of dying.
Chow says patients older than 60 and those with two or more underlying health conditions saw the most benefit. Aspirin is also cheap. It could help across the globe for people who can't afford or access other more expensive medicines like monoclonal antibodies. That includes Americans. "We had to cut the supply of monoclonal antibody treatments that we had distributed in the past to every state. That distribution to each state was reduced by 35%," Department of Health and Human Services Sec. Xavier Becerra said.
