"It looks like there is no case at all to be made for some of these therapies, and for remdesivir, it looks like the argument now is “Does it help a bit or just not at all?” The only thing that I’ve seen that really seems to be making a big difference now is dexamethasone, and we may soon (I hope) be adding the monoclonal antibodies to that list. The SOLIDARITY enrollment is still moving along at 2000 patients/month, and will be looking at these and other newer ideas as it continues. And that means abandoning the older ideas, because – as we’re finding out – they’re not much help. It’s time to move on."

Just so everyone knows, this is the same guy that writes the 'Things I Won't Work With" blog. It's all about insane chemical compounds and is very much one of the best blogs ever written.

Dexamethasone is a bit of a wonder drug. It might not save your life, but you'll certainly feel better for a couple of days. Earlier this week I gave some to a calf that hadn't had the strength to walk out of the corral for days. The next morning I found it running around.

Prednisone as well. Donny was right about them, they really do make you feel 20 years younger.

Shame about the liver and kidneys though.
