Not just old sick people ?
Get over yourself
Who are the majority of people ending up in the ICU consuming enormous healthcare resources ?

Right …. older people with comorbidity’s like heart disease or diabetes. ?

Let’s waste a few million $ on a trial of young relatively healthy people like Raf … who have a very low chance of ending up in the iCU because of Covid .

Waste … as in there won’t be enough events between matching arms of people like Raf to generate stat sig results

MITIGATE is a large enough trial
At least 1500 on Vascepa and at least another 1500 matching not using Vascepa

About the same numbers as used in the US portion of R-IT
