Special Episode - Antivirals in COVID19

In this special episode we provide a brief rundown of the current antiviral treatments being trialled in critically ill COVID19 patients. We look at some of the (very) recent studies as well as previous research conducted during the original SARS outbreak in 2002, which is definitely of relevance due to the similarities in the mechanisms of entry and replication of SARS-CoV-2 compared with SARS-CoV.

I repeatedly talk about the Internet Book of Critical Care source in this podcast, you can access it here:

They also have a podcast I would very highly recommend listening in to.
