Coronavirus – Promising medicine to cure disease failed first tests

The United States of America started testing different kinds of medicines containing the chemical formula of hydroxy-klorokin. The drug was said to be successful and effective, but a recent study reported that it did not help infected people; many died due to the infection caused by the coronavirus. 

Daily News Hungary reported before that the medicine Hungary would like to produce and use to stop the epidemic in the country contains the same material as the ones produced in the USA. Reports advertised this medicine as an effective method against the virus — based on Italian and Chinese experiences — that can be used soon. The Hungarian Government, therefore, banned the export of this material.

At the beginning of April, the USA announced that only the permission is missing to start the production of the medicine. Nowadays, many studies try to present the available and possible types of drugs and their effectiveness. One of them announced disappointing news.
