Correlation does not equal causation. Cue people overusing melatonin with zero understanding of what melatonin does because the news threw percentages at them.

“Is it because people are getting better sleep that they’re less susceptible to the virus? Or is it because of the melatonin?” KIRO7′s Deedee Sun asked Cheng.
“The exact mechanism we don’t know yet, but more and more data comes out that support our hypothesis,” Cheng said.
He said studies increasingly show melatonin does much more than just help people sleep – it also can help regulate the immune system.
Other studies have shown melatonin “reduces chronic and acute inflammation.” New clinical trials are now underway to see how much it helps patient outcomes in COVID treatments, including one at the Cleveland Clinic involving Cheng’s team.
Another study conducted by researchers at Columbia University Irving Medical Center (Department of Biomedical Informatics) looked at thousands of COVID-19 intubated patients, and found when patients were exposed to melatonin after getting intubated, they had better outcomes. The researchers recommended further study based on those findings, saying they could not adjust for all variables in the study.
“Melatonin can also help us improve our human body – what we call tolerance. To help us reduce the tissue or organ damage induced by COVID infection,” Cheng said.

I read the article, nothing against the research. But it's really just a data correlation at the moment, a loose one.
Melatonin in amounts much higher than that which is in the body normally can destabilize certain functions as well as help them, and it doesn't help that many OTC bottles overdose pills well beyond what is necessary for sleep normally.

Most people these days don't get anywhere near enough sleep for their immune system to function properly so seems like non-news to report on that fact in different words.

Yes it's crazy that eating right and getting good sleep makes you healthy.
It's almost like it isn't my responsibility to keep you healthy but your own.
