Remdesivir

Nakadungog o nakabasa na tingali kamo bahin niining tambal nga Remdesivir, usa sa daghang mga tambal nga karon gi-testingan kon makaayo ba sa coronavirus.

Pagkakaron, sa atong pagsuwat niini ug sa katapusan natong pagkutlo sa nigawas sa Internet, wala pay kaseguroan kon makapalayas ba kini niining kagaw nga nihugpa sa tibuok kalibutan ug nakakalas na ug ubay-ubayng kinabuhi worldwide. Pagkakaron, nagpadayon ang pag-testing ug matud dinhi, “Stanford Medicine researchers who participated in two separate clinical trials are encouraged by data indicating that remdesivir can treat COVID-19.”

So, encouraging kuno ang resulta sa mga pagsuway nga gihimo sa mga researcher sa Stanford Medicine sa America. Maoy atong panghinaut nga kon mamatud-an na gayud ang pagka-epektibo niining maong tambal, makaginahawa na kita’g gamay ug makapakunhod na sa atong mga kabalaka.

Ug nia pa: “The results from the National Institute Health (NIH) which included 1,063 patients from 68 sites (47 in the U.S. and 21 in countries in Europe and Asia) are still awaiting peer review.”

So, madugay-dugay pa ang atong paghuwat. Si. Dr. Lloyd Minor, Dean sa Stanford School of Medicine nagkanayon: “These two rigorously done trials provide really the first evidence of the efficacy of any therapeutic for this disease. I think this is very encouraging in terms of the future.”

Sa niaging Mayo 1, duha ka adlaw gikan sa pag-release sa unang mga pagsuway sa remdesivir, giingon dinhi, ato na usab kutluon aron dili ta masayop:  “The Food and Drug Administration” (sa America ni) “ approved emergency use of the drug for the treatment of COVID-19.”

For emergency use lang. Kabahin pa kini sa ilang mga pagsuway, ug wala pa gayud tugoti nga itambal  sa virus. Matud ni Dr. Neera Ahuja, principal investigator sa NIH-sponsored trial ug chief sa division of of hospital medicine sa Stanford, “I’m very excited by the trial results. Still, this is not a panacea. We don’t know if this is the best treatment. It’s an IV drug at this time and can’t be given outside the hospital. We still need to look for the most effective drug.” So, padayon ang pag-research.

Ug mahitungod sa recovery, ilang nakita nga medyo nadali ang pag-recover gikan sa usual nga 15 ka adlaw ngadto na lang sa 11 ka adlaw. Ug aron dili na sad ta masayop, ania ato na usab kining kutluon: “In results reported April 29, Gilead announced that a five-day treatment course with remdesivir was potentially as effective as 10-days of treatment in its trial of severely ill patients. Later that same day, the NIH reported that early data from its remdesivir trial indicated the drug helps to accelerates the time to recovery in severely ill patients. Its trials showed recovery for these patients was reduced from 15 days to 11 days.”

So, nindot. Apan, so far, igo lang kining makapadali sa recovery. Si Dr. Anthony Fauci, director sa National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, sa usa ka televised nga meeting didto sa White House, nagkanayon: “Data shows it has a clear-cut positive effect in diminishing the time to recovery.

What this has proven is that a drug can block this virus.”

Nagpadayon ang pagpangita ug pagdiskobre unsa kini nga tambal. Ug kita dinhi sa atong nasud, padayon ang atong mga pag-ampo nga magmalampuson sila niining pagkaplag sa maong tambal. Ang nagsulat niining maong artikulo, si Tracie White, usa ka science writer sa Office of Communications sa America.
