evidence: Most people who get COVID-19 recover. ___ TRUMP, on the study of VA hospital data: "If you look at that phony report that was put in, that report on the hydroxyl — was given to people that were in extraordinarily bad condition — extraordinarily bad, people that were dying." — remarks Monday. TRUMP: "There was a false study done where they gave it to very sick people — extremely sick people, people that were ready to die. … And the study came out. The people were ready to die. Everybody was old, had bad problems with hearts, diabetes, and everything else you can imagine." — remarks Tuesday at Cabinet meeting. VA SECRETARY ROBERT WILKIE: "They did not even look at what the president just mentioned — the various comorbidities that the patients who were referenced in that study had." — Cabinet meeting Tuesday. WILKIE: "The analysis did not adjust for patients’ clinical status." — letter on April 29 to veterans’ groups. THE FACTS: Trump and his VA secretary are incorrect. Researchers did use standard statistical methods to adjust for differences in the groups being compared, including clinical status and the presence of other chronic health conditions.
