They are talking about remdesivir. There was a battle about this with the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Look it up.

Do they have anything for those who are totally burned out on hearing about this Chicom cootie? If they do, I’ll take a double dose.

Gezzzz.

chloroquine is probably safer as well.

I mention before a doc from SLU interviewed locally about this and was very negative on HCQ.

Your most nobly noetic Nullness, those symbols leave me baffled. Can you translate to the common vernacular? The void is gone, along with my job.

Of 53, half on ventilators (26?), 7 died. 7/26 = 27% fail rate. Normal fail rate for ventilated patients is 80% or more. So remdesivir is significant. I think it’s the drug that the US armed forces were stockpiling in February.

It took me a bit. Eyebrows, winky eyes, nose, tongue sticking out(?), chin/goatee.

Check out the cost. Apps $100.00 while HCQ is $1.00. Now you know why they don’t want HCQ.

Encouraging. There is also promising looking results with IL 6 and IL 5 inhibitors .

Remdesivir is $1000, and on patent, of course. Fauci loves it.

HCQ is $20 in America, less elsewhere. And long off patent. Fauci hates it.

So many knew this from the beginning. No,I am not a doctor! How many died and how much did America die because the left held this back?

not only is this drug being promoted by Fauci, who has a financial interest but-———————
Chinese researchers have applied for a national patent on an experimental Gilead Sciences Inc. drug that they believe might fight the novel coronavirus.

The Wuhan Institute of Virology — based in the Chinese city at the center of the epidemic — has applied for a patent in China for the use of the antiviral drug, known as remdesivir, in treating the ailment. The application was made on Jan. 21 together with a military academy, according to a Feb. 4 statement on the institute’s website.

Large areas of China have been paralyzed by the coronavirus, and the move signals a desire to speed development of one of the most promising potential treatments. Beijing has moved aggressively to contain the infection that has killed almost 500 people and sickened nearly 25,000. If the application succeeds, Gilead would need to get Chinese patent owners on board in sales of the drug for treating coronavirus infections outside China.

I know that the average price for HCQ+Azithromycin treatment for Covid-19 is somewhere less than $30.00

What I’d like to know how much Remdesivir would cost to treat Covid-19.
