The following post discusses how GS441524, the anti-viral drug that has been used to cure thousands of FIP cats, will be studied to see if it can cure Covid19 in humans.
Urged on by scientists, HIH will study Gilead's remdesivir-like compound against Covid-19
This is vindication for Dr Neils Pedersen, who has been urging for studies to see if GS441524 could treat Covid-19 for more than a year. It also shows how the distinction between "animal" research and human research is an artificial one. In this case, funding FIP research may directly help save humans from Covid-19! It certainly is saving many cats.
