So is a treatment better than the vaccines?3 Dec 2021 17:28
Just what I scratch my head about and admittedly would appreciate an answer to. For the record I'm for treatments. So this
How is COVID-19 treated?
Treatment for COVID-19 depends on the severity of the infection. For milder illness, resting at home and taking medicine to reduce fever is often sufficient. The more severe cases require hospitalization, with treatment that might include supplemental oxygen, assisted ventilation and other supportive measures.
“Two drugs that have a role in treating severe COVID-19 infection are the antiviral remdesivir, which has full FDA [Food and Drug Administration] approval for treatment of hospitalized patients with COVID-19, and the corticosteroid dexamethasone,” Auwaerter says.
“The Food and Drug Administration also gave emergency authorization to use convalescent plasma [CP]. The data supporting the usefulness of CP for hospitalized patients is less robust than that for remdesivir or dexamethasone, but studies are ongoing to better clarify its role.”
I'm pretty sure we are better than remdesivir and dexamethasone! Pretty sure citizen and ahfam and thoth could confirm this.
And then this re July RNS
Dr John Reader, CSO of Sareum, commented:
"The results from our Covid-19 research project are very encouraging and provide clear evidence of the potential of SDC-1801 to reduce the excessive inflammatory response seen in severe Covid-19. We are keen to progress this project to the next stage and will now explore our options to find the best way to fund these next steps. This could include the UK government's AGILE clinical development platform, which was established to fund Phase 1 trials and fast-track the development of potentially ground-breaking Covid-19 treatments. These activities are expected to run in parallel with the broader SDC-1801 development plan targeting autoimmune diseases. We look forward to providing updates on our progress as we reach key milestones in the development of SDC-1801."
My opinion.....the large pharmas are making billions with vaccines and the 'treatment' drugs approved so far are rather questionable. So we are superior I believe (please advise otherwise) and its a matter of time until we get recognition when the bidding for licenses for our ipr are made apparent.
Maybe it might happen before the Q and A?
There is definitely a bit of turmoil regards omicron and vaccines needing atleast 100 days to react with deemed effectiveness.
Treatments seem to be the way forward.
Just my thought.
