I said it once and I'll say it again, AGN is dragging their feet. They are too busy playing Kal games for penny flipping nonsense.

From the BBC article posted earlier:

The first drug proven to cut deaths from Covid-19 is not some new, expensive medicine but an old, cheap-as-chips steroid.

That is something to celebrate because it means patients across the world could benefit immediately.

And that is why the top-line results of this trial have been rushed out - because the implications are so huge globally.

Dexamethasone has been used since the early 1960s to treat a wide range of conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and asthma.

Half of all Covid patients who require a ventilator do not survive, so cutting that risk by a third would have a huge impact.

The drug is given intravenously in intensive care and in tablet form for less seriously ill patients.



What is the benefit of waiting until July to start if we are using the tablet form anyways? Get data soon before there are alternatives!
