Not at the cost of lives, don’t be impatient.we are going to get hammered no matter what. Restart the economy now before the damage to it gets out of control.
Yes, because unforseen consequences.If your husband, wife, brother, sister, mom, dad were dying and the FDA told you they couldn’t try a drug that had great potential to save their life you’d be all fine with that because…well regulations.
Which conditions specifically?With respect you can kill anything with anything in those conditions.
Fortunately, this is not what is happening. Doctors can proscribe on a compassionate basis right now.Really!!! Your mom is dying… dying… and you would be totally fine with waiting for 2 years of clinical trials (regulation), adhering to all the other regulations, which means your mom would NOT be given a potentially life-saving drug simply because you want to follow the bureaucratic red tape and ensure 100% safety and efficacy? So your mom is dead but you followed those regulations vs potentially saving them and maybe (again, maybe) having a few complications. I have no response to that.
I expect the data needs to be aggregated, cleansed, checked, and analyzed, but it is out there in it’s raw form. Many research careers will be made on this in the coming years.The data for the effectiveness of this drug could be already out there in sections of society that do already use this drug such as those with some autoimmune diseases. I really dont understand why that data is not being used.
Unless it is and is not yet published.
