Medicines for corona

Comprehensive medical research reveals that an old drug called "Colchicine" improves the treatment of severe corona disease and may even cut the death rate in half. "This is a particularly surprising result, because it is an ancient and well-known drug in the treatment of completely different inflammatory diseases." 
It seems that the rate of development of small molecules as drugs for corona lags behind the rate of development of treatments using vaccines and antibodies
Prof. Jacob Nahmias from the Hebrew University proved in a clinical trial conducted at Barzilai Hospital that the drug designed to lower blood lipids reduced the inflammation caused by the corona virus within 48 hours in severe corona patients and obviated the need for artificial respiration
The president of the United States, who was infected with corona and began to show symptoms in a difficult condition, received an experimental antibody cocktail. Research doctors from the University of Virginia detail what are the effective treatments against corona, and what are the promising treatments that are in clinical trials
Using Australia's National Drug Discovery Centre, researchers from the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute have identified ingredients that can block a central protein of the coronavirus, called PLpro. This protein, which is found in all corona viruses, is essential for the virus and allows it to enter human cells, reproduce in them and paralyze their anti-viral mechanism
