The drug company Gilead is touting positive data on a study of a possible treatment for COVID-19.

According to The Hill:

Gilead Sciences said Wednesday it is aware of “positive data” emerging from a clinical trial studying one of its drugs as a potential treatment for COVID-19.

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases’s study of remdesivir, an experimental antiviral, has reached its primary endpoint, Gilead said, meaning the drug was found to be effective in the trial.

The institute, which is headed by Anthony Fauci, a key member of the White House’s coronavirus task force, is expected to release more information Wednesday, Gilead said.

There is no proven COVID-19 treatment yet, though hundreds of clinical trials are ongoing all around the world to find one. Scientists have high hopes for remdesivir, which was originally developed as a potential treatment for Ebola, but was found to be ineffective.

Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said the drug is likely not a home run but will help in the battle against the worsening effects of the virus.

Why bother. This virus has already changed and will be gone soon like the others. It was made made in the level 4 lab, and I bet when you follow the money of the $3.7 FAUCI invested there, you will find his hands ALL over it with DEMS to destroy America and the world to go into one world gov., and mandatory vaccines to put a RFID chip in us. Americans, find the truth and stand with TRUMP to fight this. He is finding out more than we wanted to know and now must get people prosecuted , which BILL BARR is working on now. It is like all the other DEM hoaxs which are hurting or killing people. Innocent people are dying world wide this time for thier scheme, not just innocent people going through hell by the LYING ,evil DEMS. I can;t wait for the triubunals on TREASON, as DEMS HATE America and Americans and willing for them to die, and others throughout the world for what they want. DEMS never say anything true, like Schiff,made up a lying phone call and impeached the prsident for what was NEVER SAID, yet BIDEN threatened a country to get his son MILLIONS. HILLARY has stolen millions from Hati, had people murdered, etc. This is what DEMS do, the party of slaver, KKK, Jim Crow, segratation, and Planned Parenthood in order to kill many blacks. Yet, blacks have left the REP party that saved them, for handouts. I am thiankful many are seeing the light now, as the DEMS use them horribly, letting some gain power so they could keep the rest “on the plantation”. Their pres. Andrew Jackson they so loved who started the DEM party, beat slaves to death just for fun. Let all this truth sink in. Who cares about America and Americans, PRES. TRUMP, who is getting stabbed daily and taking NO MONEY. When he goes to Mar-A-Lago, we are charged NOTHING. GOLF..nothing. Obama charged us $3.8 million each trip to Hawaii. Remember they are in it for all the corrupt power and money they can get form America before it goes under. FIGHT PEOPLE..Fight for FREEDOM under Donald J. Trump.
GOD bless America and GOD bless TRUMP.

You are correct. My research shows the same. Not to mention that 2 hospitals in NY should be closed because most of the patients succomb to treatment there. And the naysayers to your article will see the proof in the courts at a later date. I don’t think Dems/globalists know how to do research.

Other than Democrats not wanting a cure and wanting to see the quarantine continue until the election, there is an effective, known cure .. Hydroxychloroquine. The left win media and the left wing democrats it controls fear any drug, especially a proven generic drug, that might reduce the number of active cases. Of course, the pointy headed elitists and drug companies would rather see a new drug to treat this disease because they can extend our misery and they can extend their importance and profits.

Many decades ago , at Fort Knox , Kentucky; I had double pneumonia and was only treated with Bayer Asprin
I broke out of the hospital (somewhat legally–fooled Them) and went to the Post Exchange—bought (legal then; but, not now) Quinine Tablets—–went to bed and sweat thru 3 wool blankets—broke the 103 fever and went back to work—-Big Pharma made it illegal to sell —over the counter—They could not “corner the nickel” as is the case with other cures not patented .

I agree. Vaccines will be bad for us.
Also Gilead is funded by Soros, Gates, Clinton and Fauci.
