Likelihood of recovery, hospitalization, or death during the first 14 days after the onset of COVID-19 symptoms among cases treated with TNR4 versus those in the comparison group.

95% Confidence Intervals (CIS) were estimated with multivariate logistic regression models adjusted by age, sex, comorbidities, and occupation.
Comparison group: participants who did not accept the TNR4 treatment because they were asymptomatic, were already taking another treatment, or they had self-medicated for cold and flu. However, they agreed to take part in the follow-up portion of the study.
