London-Sana
A British scientist revealed that a permanent solution to eliminating the Corona epidemic will require a more effective defense method in addition to vaccines.
And the British newspaper Daily Express quoted David Katz, professor of immunology at University College London, as saying that there is a need for an antiviral inhibitor that is able to stop the ability of corona to multiply inside the body, stressing that while immunization with anti-corona vaccines cannot be ignored, this inhibitor will stop the spread of the virus. In close communities and places such as nursing homes and large families.
Katz explained that those with weakened immunity can live with less fear of contracting severe symptoms of the virus, noting that an inhibitor similar to a drug that protects against infection from HIV can be used to prevent the Corona virus from multiplying inside the body of an infected person.
"We need an inhibitor of the virus itself that targets the enzymes that this virus uses to reproduce," he said, expressing his hope that such an inhibitor will be discovered during the current year.
