Therapeutics

[Jolly]

Because of Trump's illness, there is a lot more news about therapeutics for COVID. Some of the drugs look very promising. One will probably be approved for use by the first of the year, that addresses the cytokine storm. Other drugs are close behind.

The goal is to get COVID death rates equal to or below the average death rates of influenza.

China has now said publicly, they will not vaccinate their entire population, but will rely on the new wave of therapeutic drugs.

"Treat" rather than "prevent."

Interesting.
