While several studies, including a final report from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), have concluded that remdesivir in coronavirus patients can speed the recovery process, a new study published in JAMA says it may not shorten hospital stays for all.
The study, which focused on U.S. veterans who were hospitalized for COVID-19, concluded that remdesivir was not associated with improved survival, but was associated with longer hospital stays.
The drug was granted emergency use authorization by the FDA for the treatment of hospitalized COVID-19 patients in May 2020, and the Infectious Diseases Society of America and NIH currently recommend it for patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19. However, the drug’s effectiveness has been called into question previously after a World Health Organization (WHO) panel advised against using it.
The advisory came after the drug was shown to have "little or no effect" during the agency’s multi-country Solidarity Trial.
The new study, which used data from the Veterans Health Administration on 5,898 patients who were admitted across 123 hospitals, suggests that remdesivir may actually prolong hospital stay for some patients.

I agree.
it was regeneron
Get past the fact that she is pretty, she is just another Bush League Republican.
Relax. The experiment isn’t over yet.
Remdesivir shortens hospital stays by killing patients.
You’re not going to stay in the hospital very long after your organs fail.
He got monoclonal antibody infusion and Remdesivir.
Figures. Anything cooked up and pushed by that big nose lying lout Fauci is bound to be dangerous and nothing more than Fauci cash cow for the greedy ole bastard.
True. Trump took Regeneron.
Its a poison. Don’t take it. 🙄
You’re correct. President Trump got Remdesivir.and monoclonal antibody infusion. MAB is what he seemed to attribute his recovery to.
See post #30.
More money for the hospitals will prolong hospital stays says this study.
Kill more people and payoffs.
I am having a sour day.
Trump received Regeneron IIRC
I hope all the drug names for this murderous kidney killer Fauci crap is on everyone’s tongues so they won’t take it without knowing it’s origin and danger.
along with remdesivir . He received both.
