The National 4 February 2020 P.15
Recently, I wrote a blog report drawing a comparison between HIV and Coronavirus on the basis of reported similarities in (1) destroying the immune system and (2) causing tissue and organ failure.
Today in the media is a report that doctors in Thailand are successfully using HIV medication against Coronavirus. Let us hope this is not just a lucky coincidence or fake news.
That news may focus attention of the researchers seeking medication against Coronavirus. Perhaps those suffering from Coronavirus and declining in health should be given ART medication.
Last night on ABC News was a report of a person who died of Coronavirus but this was "due to a pre-existing infection". Is this a polite way of saying HIV/AIDS?
The question does arise as to how many people have died of Coronavirus because their immune systems have already been weakened by HIV infection with no ART medication.
