The summary is somewhat misleading. It seems to demonstrate that spraying nitric oxide into your nose reduces the number of viruses in your nose.

That’s helpful, but it would be much more important to clear the virus from the lungs.

The nose is the first place the virus goes is it not?

I guess all those COVID tests using the long swabs were doing it wrong, who knew a simple nasal swab would be sufficient for a COVID test?

An article the other day reported budesonide also is preventive; it’s an otc generic for Nasacort, a steroid nasal spray. We use generic Flonase but I’m thinking of switching to budesonide.

The idea is to treat it very early. If you can recognize you might have more than a cold, get tested, get the results, get prescribed...

Took me three days to get tested when I was exposed, five days more to get the results. Worthless.
