The National Institutes of Health (NIH) COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel released its final set of recommendations on February 29, 2024. This article includes a copy of the final guidelines and incorporates perspectives and lessons learned as the public health emergency ended. Convened in March 2020 at the request of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the expert panel developed "living" guidelines, that were continuously updated as new data emerged and designed to be accessible to clinicians. Over the past four years, the panel provided treatment strategies for COVID-19 using FDA-approved and -authorized antiviral therapies and immunomodulators. Further recommendations will now transition to professional societies: https://lnkd.in/epYnh5Vf
