Brazil finds possible COVID-19 anti-viral

You are going to get a lot of derisive comments because this is only an in vitro study, but I think the most important part of this article is the aggressive approach Brazil is taking to try these treatments.

We are so conservative in the US - we only allow doctors to try different drugs on the severe cases, when we should also be focusing on pre-hospitalization trials.

Brazil’s hand is forced because I doubt they have enough ventilators and have a lot of people living in remote regions.

I am also aware that the US is more litigious, but I believe doctors should be empowered to try regimens before hospitalization, particularly things more benign than Chloroquine, like Ivermectin, which has shown some promise.
