"It's a pretty remarkable drug," Massachusetts General Hospital critical-care specialist Dr. Lorenzo Berra, who is leading a trial, told the L.A. Times. "It has a risk profile that is minimal." . . . .

I read earlier that many doctors are seeing thrombosis in COVID patients.

I wonder if Viagra is being used to prevent that.

Might be a better option than heparin.

You are cured of Covid-19 but die from an erection that lasted longer than 6 hours.

One liberal group says nitric oxide is a deadly pollutant.

Dana Loesch has told us about Superbeets, a superfood that supplies nitric oxide in quantity. Has this been tried yet for controlling coronavirus in the body?

Hard way to cure Corona I’d say.
