Gilead antiviral drug remdesivir flops in first trial
Exclusive: Disappointing results revealed in draft documents published accidentally by WHO
(Excerpt) Read more at ft.com ...
The Chinese trial showed the antiviral remdesivir did not improve patients’ condition or reduce the pathogen’s presence in the bloodstream, the report said.
Chinese trial. “Accidentally” published by WHO-—seriously??
Is this garbage what caused the Dow to tank in the last 10 minutes?
Well that stinks. We need it as a backup for when Covid-19 selects resistance to HCQ.
It’s going to take a lot for me to begin trusting Chinese data.
Watch now as the MSM and Libs say that we can’t trust a thing out of China...
Yes, but it is recovering
Why do I get the sense that we’re being lied to; that some one doesn’t want too quick of a remedy?
It flopped for its original purpose against Ebola as well.
“Chinese trial. “Accidentally” published by WHO-—seriously??”
Dweeb Bill Gates was overheard saying “I love when a plan comes together”
Yeah. More orange man bad stuff.
“The paper said that researchers studied 237 patients, giving the drug to 158 and comparing their progress with the remaining 79. The story indicated that the drug showed significant side effects in some, with 18 patients taken off it.” - Mark DeCambre; AskNewswires@dowjones.com
I would never trust Chinese data.
Ivermectin, Nitazoxanide, both lowly generics, and some others.
Chinese study accidentally leaked early by WHO... hmm...
I call bullshit. Read an article the other day they had some successes with the drug, but improvements were necessary. That isn’t a flop. That’s progress with a capital ‘P’. Keep taking the other, and improve on the new ones. It will get done.
“Accidentally leaked by the WHO”, and a “Chinese trial”. Yeah, credible. /S
Third unlabeled colored curve is Sweden.
Ha...I wondered why the stock markets just crashed...but coming back up...the power of Trump.
Exactly. For all we know, it is actually working to a degree, and the Chinese are keeping others from benefiting from it.
