Both were found to reduce the incidence of coronavirus infection, according to the study. “This is the first study to demonstrate the benefits of prophylactic, or preventive therapy with either oral hydroxychloroquine or povidone-iodine throat spray in reducing SARS-CoV-2 infection among quarantined individuals living in a closed and high exposure setting,” said lead author of the clinical study Associate Professor Raymond Seet from the National University Hospital (NUH).
