there is many issues with many types of drugs
for instance. a drug that does the 'killing' of the virus. does not allow the patients own antibodies to actually fight it. thus no immunity afterwards. and only works while the drugs are in the person system
this is why when giving antivirals they are then checking back later to see if it was the antiviral that destroyed it. or if it was the other meds that boosted the patients longevity long enough for the body to fight it.
the key here is the hope of something that will cause the body to next time recognise the virus, not over react. and just destroy it. without issue...
thats called true immunity.
what we dont want is where a drug does something just to treat the immuno response(breathing difficulty). meaning people will have issues breathing first to then need meds.
what we dont want is where after an infection recovery.. people are not immune. so can get it again within weeks of not taking meds
there is no magic single pill solution right now. and most multiple pill solutions so far are just treating symptoms. and come with their own sideeffect list of their own so they too not perfect. and come with no guarantee of true immunity after
what doctors are prefering is just to keep the patient alive long enough for the patients own body to combat it. meaning the bodies own white blood cells learn to recognise and handle it. and hope that the white blood cells remember how to handle it next season and beyond..
