Very good news regarding Rimdesivir study

This randomized, placebo controlled study shows sickness reduced from 15 days to 11.
I think the next step is combining Rimdesivir with another antiviral like they do for HIV.

That is significant, much better than Tamiflu for the flu. Find another antiviral to combine it with and we are going to have something.
Tamiflu shortens flu by 1-2 days....if that.

Reducing the severity and hospitalization time is something. It may not be a magic bullet, but it helps.
I'll take good news where we can get it.

Obviously a proven and effective treatment platform needs to be established in order for a nationwide criteria to assist attending physicians. I do not believe it’s mere coincidence that NIAID conducted this study and who is the head of that agency? Dr. Anthony Fauci. I’ve been banging the Hydoxy-chloroquine + Zpack drum from the get go and the head of the FDA said the initial numbers from that study were very encouraging as well and they will have a full data report in the coming weeks. I come to this board for the wife pics, er, truly valuable medical opinions from those in the know, I sell to the medical field and wife(you wish/cougar) works for the largest healthcare system so we’ve got some insight as well. My point being is Remdesivir is not cheap and they’ve already boosted production over the past month, while Hydoxy-chloroquine is $.02-.04 a tab & Z-packs are standard....ALWAYS follow the money.
