I believe it makes sense to wait until a real vaccine is found. US drug
developer Moderna from Cambridge, Massachusetts, is running first tests for a
coronavirus vaccine in early-stage trial. Inovio from Pennsylvania works on a
similar drug. The German company BioNTech SE also tries to be among the first
companies that find a cure.

What's coming - how to defeat the virus For what its worth — found confirmation
from six sources — hydroxychloroquine alone or taken in combination with
azithromycin, can fight the disease. If you have the upper respiratory form,
they can deter and ameliorate the descent into the lungs. They help minimize
the "slime" that covers your alveoli when the virus and your antibodies fight
and kill each other. This lessens the stress from lack of oxygen in your
blood.davewOn Sat, Mar 21, 2020, at 10:44 AM, Jochen Fromm wrote:The doctor who
helped to defeat smallpox explains what's coming: either enough people get the
disease and become immune, or a vaccine is developed to help us become immune.
Both would stop the virus.

around the world are working on a vaccine, for example the Baric Lab in North
Carolina and the Denison Lab in Tennessee. The German company CureVac in
Tübingen is also trying to find a vaccine.
