A new study has found that millions of people who take cholesterol-lowering medication may be less likely to die from the emerging coronavirus.

The study included a review of the health data of 963,876 Stockholm residents over the age of 45 between March and November of 2020 to examine the relationship between medication and the risk of death from Covid.
