Analysis of the performances of the Covid-19 therapeutic approaches in the United Arab Emirates

Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the performances of the therapeutic approaches adopted in the United Arab Emirates to fight Covid-19 infection.\n\nMethods: Statistical analysis of the number of cases and fatalities for the United Arab Emirates. The fatality rates are compared to those of reference countries adopting different approaches.\n\nResults: The United Arab Emirates outperformed the reference countries with a much smaller number of fatalities. While this number is not only driven by therapies, the different therapeutic approaches are the most important driver.\n\nConclusions: Combination therapies are most effective than single drug therapies. The use of antivirals especially in the early stages reduces the number of fatalities.
