Why is it the United States feels we have to reinvent the wheel. I will say the FDA has been fairly responsible and allowing these treatments since they are working in many other countries

Remdesivir, the drug being discussed in this thread, was indeed touted by Trump. But, completely contrary to your posting, Remdesivir has never been used all over the world. It has not even been commercially manufactured. It is an experimental drug that has never left the testing phase. It has not had adequate successful clinical trials yet for any condition which is why it is not being marketed anywhere for anything. The FDA is not behind the rest of the world as this drug is unproven worldwide. This trial and others are attempting to find a clinical use for a product with in vitro and theoretical reasons to hope will work.
Please look things up before you post. Certainty is not the same as accuracy.
