Remdesivir has shown promise against other coronaviruses, and may be beneficial in this current outbreak. Gilead’s drug is now being tested in China and the U.S. Marks also said convalescent plasma, a blood product taken from people who have already fallen ill, may have potential.
Treatment is getting a lot better and they might have cure (increase in chance of survival) in a few weeks. The mortality rate will fall quickly. Next, viruses hate heat and dry weather. The warmer weather might kill it off.
While viruses hate heat and humidity. So do humans. Both humans and viruses love air conditioning.
A/C is how SARS spread extensively in HK and Singapore as both places are wealthy enough to afford it. But possibly why it didn’t spread in Indonesia and other ‘poor at the time’ Asian countries.
We’ll see though, heat doesn’t kill all coronaviruses.
solid info. Thanks.
