New Drugs for Coronavirus
The race for the coronavirus vaccines is in full swing around the globe but the question is how long does it take to get the vaccine to reach the mass population.
Usually the minimum timeframe for the vaccine to get in full production is six months to 18 months.
But the situation here is every single day people are dying in such high number that before even the vaccines are available, loads of lives would be lost.
But the great news is scientists around world are now working on some specific drugs instead of the vaccine which are already available in the market and has been used for ages for the treatment of the head lice scabs.
A study led by Monash University in Melbourne, Australia showed how a single dose of the drug Ivermectin could stop the Covid-19 from growing in cell culture.
Dr Kylie Wagstaff, from Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute , said on Friday: “We found that even a single dose could essentially remove all viral RNA (effectively removed all genetic material of the virus) by 48 hours and that even at 24 hours there was a really significant reduction in it.”
