It is near approval as a treatment for HIV and has been used to treat some seriously ill Covid-19 patients, under an emergency use program. Several very seriously ill patients who were not helped by other treatments did recover after being treated with Leronlimab. Phase 2b/3 trials are underway at several locations. Initial results should be available soon. I'm hopeful and expecting that either this drug or one of the other treatments under development will be successful and available before any of the vaccines might be ready for use. If so, we will be able to return to our normal lives with more confidence by early fall.

Good to read this post. IU or Perdue?
