Clinical trials underway for potential coronavirus treatment
Doctors at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta are prescribing remdesivir to COVID-19 patients. The drug was originally approved for Ebola patients, but early results suggest it could be more effective in treating COVID-19.

American universities are doing a bang up job of researching treatments, vaccines, and testing. That's our American ingenuity and can-do spirit at work.

Mr Giggles read where the University of Colorado (?) was working on an oral vaccine. I heard on the news this morning that somebody else is working on a oral test. Abbott Laboratories have a test that has a 15 minute turn around time and are working to get it mass produced.

This is the America I know and love.

It's also the work of science. When you need tangible results, science is the way to go.
