Clinical trials of Russian drug, Favipiravir that kills coronavirus in 4 days enter final stage

A Russian-made drug, Favipiravir that may help treat COVID-19 is a step closer to being released after moving into the final stages of clinical trials.

The drug has several advantages including significantly reducing patient recovery time, and its availability in tablet form, making it easier to use, according to an earlier statement from the RDIF. “Thanks to the administration of Favipiravir, most patients are not infectious as early as the fifth day of treatment, which is critical to stop the epidemic and ensure a swift return to normal life,” Yakubova added.

Hope rising and lockdown is about locked out in Nigeria a major subsistent economy.

Good effort

That is if WHO will not out of corruption and politics reject the drug.

I think the Russian tech community is diversifying from their usual base which is weaponry.

Good one

Good news 👏

We're getting there, I pray it's finally approved by WHO, the WORLD will go back to normal.

Land of the wise..
