We can't say we weren't warned. Every government is guilty of arrogance, stupidity and slowness to react to this pandemic. China covers things up, as it always does.. The UK government bumbles around, as it always does. The economy is wrecked. And we are nowhere near through this yet...

Cure found for COVID-19 with a single dose of an already FDA approved drug?
University of Melbourne and Royal Melbourne Hospital pushes for human trial and funding


Juergen T SteinmetzApril 8, 2020 04:19


A collaborative study led by the Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute (BDI) with

the Peter Doherty Institute of Infection and Immunity (Doherty Institute), a joint

venture of the University of Melbourne and Royal Melbourne Hospital, has shown

that an anti-parasitic drug already available around the world kills the virus

within 48 hours.


Although several clinical trials are now underway to test possible therapies, the

worldwide response to the COVID-19 outbreak has been largely limited to

monitoring/containment. Ivermectin, an FDA-approved anti-parasitic previously

shown to have broad-19 spectrum anti-viral activity in vitro, is an inhibitor of

the causative virus.

The use of Ivermectin to combat COVID-19 depends on pre-clinical testing and

clinical trials, with funding urgently required to progress the work.

In Australia, a Monash University-led collaborative study was published in

Antiviral Research, a peer-reviewed medical journal



The Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute’s Dr Kylie Wagstaff, who led the study,

said the scientists showed that the drug, Ivermectin, stopped the SARS-CoV-2 virus

growing in cell culture within 48 hours.

“We found that even a single dose could essentially remove all viral RNA by 48

hours and that even at 24 hours there was a really significant reduction in it,”

Dr Wagstaff said.

Ivermectin is an FDA-approved anti-parasitic drug that has also been shown to be

effective in vitro against a broad range of viruses including HIV, Dengue,

Influenza and Zika virus.

Dr Wagstaff cautioned that the tests conducted in the study were in vitro and that

trials needed to be carried out in people.
________________________________________

“Ivermectin is very widely used and seen as a safe drug. We need to figure out now

whether the dosage you can use it in humans will be effective – that’s the next

step,” Dr Wagstaff said.

“In times when we’re having a global pandemic and there isn’t an approved

treatment, if we had a compound that was already available around the world then

that might help people sooner. Realistically it’s going to be a while before a

vaccine is broadly available.

Although the mechanism by which Ivermectin works on the virus is not known, it is

likely, based on its action in other viruses, that it works to stop the

virus ‘dampening down’ the host cells’ ability to clear it, Dr Wagstaff said.

Royal Melbourne Hospital’s Dr Leon Caly, a Senior Medical Scientist at the

Victorian Infectious Diseases Reference Laboratory (VIDRL) at the Doherty

Institute where the experiments with live coronavirus were conducted, is the

study’s first author.

“As the virologist who was part of the team who were first to isolate and share

SARS-COV2 outside of China in January 2020, I am excited about the prospect of

Ivermectin being used as a potential drug against COVID-19,” Dr Caly said.

------------ buywell's market update ----------------

USA markets dropped like a brick after UK markets close

The next leg down IMO will start soon and according to DOW THEORY it is going to be leg 3 of wave 3

This is the biggest of all in a Bear Market situation

Bear markets on average last 10 months

This one has been going around say 1 month give or take

The first and second legs have taken USA markets down circa 35% or thereabouts

When this next leg starts buywell expects it will be bigger and longer than what we have seen so far

buywell calls the DOW to 15000

buywell calls the FTSE 100 to 4500

Those calls are for now , and subject to Covid being put back inits cage and cleared away before this xmas.

If Covid is still roaming around or worse still has mutated into Covid-20

Then the led downwards will continue into 2021

All IMO

dyor

take care -- it's your money ( I hope )
