New Medicine Comes To The rescue?

 A drug named Remdesivir produced by the California company Gilead Science was given to  Covid-19 patients at the University of Chicago hospital. Most of them have recovered quickly with the majority of them going home in just days.

 The patients taking part in a clinical trial of the drug all had severe respiratory symptoms and fever. Dr. Katherine Mullane who is leading the clinical trial said most of her patients have already been discharge from the hospital. This is exciting news and the company’s stock made big gains on the New York stock exchange.
