Modified cold drug may combat SARS, study suggests
German researchers report a model of a key SARS protein and say the experimental cold drug AG7088 could block viral replication. Pfizer developed AG7088, now in rhinovirus trials, with Fauci calling the work a step toward antiviral targets though much remains to prove clinical effectiveness against SARS. The study notes 7400+ global SARS cases and at least 580 deaths, highlighting the potential yet distant path to a usable medicine.
