Researchers from Tel Aviv’s Ichilov Medical Center developed a therapy that was found to cure COVID-19 in 3-5 days.
EXO-CD24 is a medication delivered directly to the lungs, where it’ll help prevent the immune system fighting COVID-19 from overreacting and causing complications.
The drug is administered once a day for five minutes via inhalation. In Phase 1 trials, 29 out of 30 people suffering from moderate to severe COVID-19 recovered within 3-5 days, and all of them survived.
It’s too early to call it a miracle cure, but if the conclusions from its recent Phase 1 trial are backed up in subsequent trials, we might have the first true breakthrough therapy for COVID-19.
That’s in addition to coronavirus vaccines, of course, which will help prevent severe COVID-19 cases and deaths, and even reduce the spread of the illness.
