Drugs and antibodies: the strategies of two IMIM groups to block SARS-CoV-2

Ivermectin was recently shown to inhibit the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro at very high doses, but this effect has not yet been studied in vivo. The new study will investigate this question in a randomised trial. | Picture by ISGlobal.
