Objectives: Georgia introduced remdesivir for the treatment of COVID-19 in December 2020. We evaluated the real-world effect of remdesivir on mortality and the need for mechanical ventilation among inpatients with COVID-19.
Methods: The study included 346 remdesivir recipients and 346 controls not receiving remdesivir selected through propensity score matching based on age, gender, presence of any chronic comorbid condition, and oxygen saturation at admission.
