Much better is to not get COVID at all. HCQ (or another zinc ionophore) and zinc are still a better approach for most people, imo. Statins have serious issues, which is not to say a few people might not benefit from them. However, I've read that statin use can increase the risk of shingles as well as cause other problems.
Still, this might be good news for a bunch of people already taking a statin.
