Most of the attention right now is on vaccines, and the best hope of ending this pandemic happens when a critical mass of people get vaccinated. But vaccines are only part of the battle against the virus. Good therapeutics are needed as well to keep people from dying from COVID-19, and to help treat people who suffer with effects of the virus weeks and months after their infection. Dr. Mark DiNubile is the Chief Medical Officer at BioAegis Therapeutics. He joins KYW Newsradio In Depth to talk about what's out there right now, the science behind coronavirus treatments, and why he believes so strongly that gelsolin therapy can be a game changer for people who are critically ill with pneumonia and diseases like COVID-19.
