under the radar in the news cycle last week, posted the below on another thread. the new drug name is the same one as the emory article re-tagged as merck is now involved.
also today, regeneron and e lilly each announced good results on monoclonal antibody therapeutics they've been moving on.
from last week on merck:
emory/merck drug, an oral, that acts a la remdesivir, they think can potentially be a prophylaxis in addition to treatment moving to stage 2 as initial came back safe:
Merck aims to start 'large pivotal' studies on coronavirus treatment in September
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/07/31/merck-a ... idappshare
https://news.emory.edu/stories/2020/04/ ... index.html
the study in magazine mentioned in 2nd link very fraught with a lot of science...
https://stm.sciencemag.org/content/12/5 ... gures-data
as it's big pharma, i'd assume they should have some rails getting trials done if it looks effective. critically, if it can be effective as a prophylaxis or even as therapeutic, an oral for this action gives distribution a big leg up for the same action vs remdesivir. gilead has been working on earlier intervention studies for remdesivir as well as delivering it as an aerosol.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
Pre-EOB number crunching indicates what last week looked like a possible peak or roll over in Florida death data, this week was proven wrong as deaths surge to 1285 (at least) for the week - a 41% increase over the previous week.

I think Hogan in Maryland is leaning the same way - he is protecting the bars and restaurants at the risk of public health.

Except that it isn't really. The daily graphs get updated later to higher numbers, so at any given recent date they are understated, the most recent the most understated, giving the false impression of decline...youthathletics wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 2:51 pmHow dare you share optimistic news around these parts...that is uncalled for.Peter Brown wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 2:41 pmjhu72 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 2:12 pm… this was a decision in favor of keeping things open longer.

The reality is that Florida's average daily death count, rolling 7 days, keeps rising. 72 per day avg. three weeks ago, 100 per day two weeks ago, 125 a week ago, 175 now, with 245 deaths reported today not included in that rolling average yet.
Average cases per day though has flattened and may be on decline, which, if so, will ultimately be helpful...but not if that turns upward again because the restrictions get lifted and the happytalk returns...

Cross-posting from the election thread as I thought it was the coronavirus thread.
Florida seeing record coronavirus deaths despite having massive head start on states like NY.
The good news is that hospitalizations may have peaked for this particular wave but they're still at a pretty high level. Schools are reopening starting next week though, so we'll see if there is another uptick in 3-4 weeks.

It looks like we'll see a flattening and hopefully dip in deaths per day following the flattening and decline in cases per day.holmes435 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 3:43 pm Cross-posting from the election thread as I thought it was the coronavirus thread.

However, I'm going to go way out on a limb and predict that daily death rate is going to exceed 300 per day in Florida by early-mid October (currently 175 per day).
Despite the improvement in therapeutics, the infection rate is going to skyrocket if Florida forces schools to open in-person, including in hotbed areas. Of course, if some key local jurisdictions don't open in-person, my estimate may be high.
My guess is that we'll see the state force the reopening and infections rising won't get detected until mid or even late September, then the lag to deaths. At that point the die will have been cast and it'll be way out of control.
Hope I'm wrong.
