BREAKING: The Food and Drug Administration has approved the experimental drug remdesivir for treating coronavirus patients.
and the Food and Drug Administration announced Friday that it has approved the experimental drug remdesivir for treating coronavirus patients who require hospitalization.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading official on infectious diseases, had touted an international study of more than 1,000 people earlier this week that supported the drug’s use. An independent data monitoring board that works with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which Fauci leads, determined that the drug was effective.
Fauci drew on the medical community’s response to the AIDS crisis to make his point. While the first HIV treatment drug AZT showed “modest” effects in its first clinical trials, subsequent research and testing created a much more powerful drug, he said.
