Does remesivir have an impact on mortality rate from covid?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Remdesivir: One significant clinical trial with Remdesivir showed reduced length of hospital stay in patients with significant illness. The difference in death rates with those on Remdesivir and those who were not treated with it was deemed to be statistically insignificant.

Some: It seems to shorten the duration of hospitalization in many patients. By itself it is not a cure.
