>A team of Australian researchers say they’ve found a cure for the novel coronavirus and hope to have patients enrolled in a nationwide trial by the end of the month.
>University of Queensland Centre for Clinical Research director Professor David Paterson told news.com.au today they have seen two drugs used to treat other conditions wipe out the virus in test tubes.
>He said one of the medications, given to some of the first people to test positive for COVID-19 in Australia, had already resulted in “disappearance of the virus” and complete recovery from the infection.
>One of the two medications is a HIV drug, which has been superseded by “newer generation” HIV drugs, and the other is an anti-malaria drug called chloroquine which is rarely used and “kept on the shelf now” due to resistance to malaria.
>“Our doctors were very, very surprised that a HIV drug could actually work against the novel coronavirus and there was a bit of scepticism,” he said.
>“That first wave of Chinese patients we had (in Australia), they all did very, very well when they were treated with the HIV drug.
>“That’s reassuring … that we’re onto something really good here.”
>disappearance of the virus >completed recovery Yes, cure. But go on, bullshit and obfuscate more
Jaxson Phillips
It's not over. In a month it will be over. No treatment can stop this
Samuel Roberts
>Virus >Cure lol ok
Bentley White
we already knew HIV drugs cured it
Oliver Brooks
WE told you not to get hyped for days fagot. Was this zoomers first "world destroying virus"™ ? Now you know why older generations did not get hyped over this shit at all. Welcome to the real world everything you where told in school and media is practically a lie.
Goes into the world destroying virus folder right next to ebola chan. The virus chans are the best thing about every "world destroying virus"™.
Literally a race again against time for them, if too many people already have it the medical system won't keep up. Still kinda sad if true.
Ryan Howard
>USED ON THE FIRST WAVE OF CHINK INFECTED IN AUSTRALIA
>COMPLETELY CURED
IT’S OVER YOU FAGGOTS
Jason Adams
Just like
>China >Romania >Israel >Washington state
Have all found the cure
Connor Phillips
this is not a cure. you will have to take those drugs for life. perfect big pharma drug. a drug you have to have for life
Jackson Peterson
My dad had a friend who looked like that, he beat the shit out of some guys and they came back and did him with a hammer, they ran away when he just carried on fighting. I was a kid at the time but thought it was great he used to balance pool balls on his head.
Dylan Johnson
IT’S OVER YOU FAGGOT
IT’S EFFICACY HAS ALREADY BEEN DEMONSTRATED IN THE FIRST WAVE OF CHINKS WHO BOUGHT THE INFECTION HERE
Gavin Allen
READ THE ARTICLE
Benjamin Williams
What are the side effects? This is an important question since some malaria treatments cause you to go blind.
Gavin King
ok, see you again in two weeks then we'll see if this cured mate
Samuel Carter
You mean Chinese disease, right? Listen, I hate kikes as much as the next person, but you do realize that chinks specifically in Wuhan were splicing HIV and SARS together, right?
Who are these "Australians" are they the Sackler family with their opioids?
Wyatt Thomas
The fact that HIV drugs have proven their efficacy in fighting the virus further supports the findings those Parjeet scientists made in Late January that the HIV inserts found in the virus could only have been there via human engineering.
Ethan Fisher
Lol shut up dickhead faark.
Zachary Gutierrez
Unless it actually is a "cure" because the bat theory is complete bullshit and the disease is actually just Wuhan scientists """accidentally""" leaking their SARS/HIV hybrid that they've been working on, and documenting in medical journals, for over a decade.
Ayden Stewart
*mutates* nothing personal kid
Julian Carter
they didnt find shit they want cash to trial tamil flu and hiv anti virals its a scam for cash lol
Jonathan Bennett
and it’s been demonstrated to work in a Western clinical setting, the only question now is why isn’t there a concerted effort to cure the infected in Italy, Spain etc,
Kevin Hall
the koreans have already been using hydroxychloroquine this entire time
Luke Edwards
It’s not a cure, it’s a drug that inhibits the virus from binding. However it doesn’t work on everyone and it’s expensive as fuck. It’s not a viable option to stopping the virus, vaccines are the only option.
It is so funny. When the shitskins fuck up on a global scale, whites have to fix it for everyone.
Christian Murphy
Dont want to be mean but thats a HIV medication that was already used for weeks. On the other hand a german doctor from Lubeck together with polish doctor from Wrocław found some kind of enzyme or some shit that completely destroy the virus and are working On creating the inhibitor. The cure is close my frens.
William Gonzalez
Can’t keep up with people who have THE FLU.
Know several people who’ve already had Corona. Fever, bad cough, joint pains for about a week. Painkillers, fluids and a week of Netflix and gaming.
Imagine the horror.
Corona is dangerous for the elderly and people with pre-existing conditions. It’s just highly infectious which is the real danger. Infecting those that will die from it.
But if you are a basically-healthy 20-30-something you are most likely perfectly safe. It will suck and won’t kill you, as most illnesses generally do.
Logan Rogers
See No way they’re going to get this drug to tens of thousands of people, I might be used to treat critical patients but it doesn’t work for everyone. China did extensive testing on this for like 2 months already
Jace Sanchez
Understood, /cvg/ noted this back in late January, however the first wave of Chinks who arrived in Australia must have been severely ill for them to resort to these experimental procedures, btw, the media at the time never let on how serious the medical condition the Chinks were in.
Blake Jones
>Thailand finds cure for coronavirus! >Israel finds cure for coronavirus! >India finds cure for coronavirus! >Japan finds cure for coronavirus! >Germany finds cure for coronavirus! >Australia finds cure for coronavirus! Am I missing any? These are all I can recall right now.
Hudson Long
>One of the two medications is a HIV drug, which has been superseded by “newer generation” HIV drugs, and the other is an anti-malaria drug called chloroquine which is rarely used and “kept on the shelf now” due to resistance to malaria. >He said the researchers want to study them in a “very meaningful way” against the coronavirus to “try and alleviate that anxiety of Australians”. >“There have already been patients treated with these in Australia and there’s been successful outcomes but it hasn’t been done in a controlled or a comparative way,” Prof Paterson said. >The drugs would be given orally, as tablets. so it's HIV drugs and they don't even know if it is effective on people yet. so nope no cure, at best it's a possible treatment. we already knew this was the case with HIV meds
Ryder Rivera
it would kill my boomer parents and I can't afford that yet
Ethan Reed
/cvg/ was posting about this early on, however it demonstrates there is a cure available which has demonstrated to increase the survival rate of patients, if they deploy this widely, then it’s game over for the happening of the century.
Joseph Ross
Heard some Thai doctor discovered/tried it. Also Gilead Sciences/Labs (patent holder of many HIV drugs) tried it on OG SARS and on their site said they were working on it with COVID.
Brody Flores
>both drugs barely used now do they have the same patent holder by any chance?
Nolan Price
wifi cochlear implants now this?
Australians are powerful
Adam Nguyen
the amount of leddit spacing in itt is worse than coronachan i hope you catch superaids, which will mutate to corona, in your anus faggot
Kayden Rivera
Sorry to burst your bubble Argie bro, but you’re going to have to do something else with your life other than bake /cvg/ threads all day, it’s over.
Ian Watson
I bet ya some didn't recover, all I get from that article is "some good results" and that's it... oh and the trial will start when (((funding))) comes.
Asher Long
>But if you are a basically-healthy 20-30-something you are most likely perfectly safe. It will suck and won’t kill you, as most illnesses generally do. If you're a healthy 20-30 year old who is infected with COVID-19 (aka, SARS 2) you're actually in the worst position. Although you're not going to die, all of the follow ups from the SARS outbreak in the early 2000s show that people who were infected have serious long lasting detrimental health effects as they age.
So, no, you're not going to die. Instead, assuming you live 50 more years, you're going to be in the worst health state imagineable. But, congrats, you didn't die. You just managed to suffer.
Isaac Hall
Exactly, THAT is the danger with this. People acting like we’re all dead.
The issue is being a danger to those that may die from this, not yourself.
T. Work at a hospital, wards in quarantine
Juan Howard
Nice digits, but all those Chinks that came here in late Jan and were all infected survived and if the Chinks are using it in Korea it explains their low death rates, it makes you wonder what the Italian’s are doing.
Jayden Butler
This but actually unironically
Noah Rodriguez
this is a sign of a manufactured crisis on average it takes several years even with Innovative Sciences to come up with a backdated last strain
Death is hardly preferable, unless you’re some kind of emo pussy.
Bentley Evans
vaccine
Isaiah Evans
They used similar combination therapies when they treated Westerner’s infected with Ebola.
Brayden Murphy
Yes they are panicking about 20% of the population who end up in a hospital, survive have some kind of permanent lung damage. China even reported that survivors have 20-30% lung capacity loss that is likely permanent. And all kinds of organ/blood diseases will creep up over life cuz of that.
