Establishing the clinical benefits of in-hospital or pre-admission use of statins in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) would have significant clinical implications; where statin treatment is appropriately indicated, clinicians should ensure patients are receiving statins with appropriate intensity.
The use of statins was associated with a significantly lower risk of all-cause mortality and the composite endpoint of severe illness in patients with COVID-19 compared to non-use of statins.
