A 62-year-old man who became Spain’s first coronavirus patient is believed
to have made a full recovery after being treated with an HIV drug,
according to a report.

Miguel Ángel Benítez was hospitalized at the Virgen del Rocio Hospital in
Seville, where he received lopinavir-ritonavir, an antiretroviral drug
sold under the brand name Kaletra, according to Metro UK, which cited El
Pais.

The drug — which has been used to treat HIV and AIDS for over 10 years —
was combined with interferon beta, a protein that prevents cells from
becoming infected and is used on people with multiple sclerosis patients,
the news outlet reported.

Santiago Moreno, head of infectious diseases at the Ramón y Cajal hospital
in Madrid, said the “SARS-CoV-2 protease is very similar to that of HIV,”
using another name for the novel coronavirus.

“This enzyme is essential for the virus to replicate. The combination of
lopinavir and ritonavir inhibits and blocks HIV,” he said, according to
Metro.

“The results that we have so far regarding its use against coronaviruses
are encouraging.”

Researchers in Spain cautioned that not all coronavirus patients would
necessarily respond to the treatment the way Benítez did.

But a research professor at Imperial College London said that if the
widely available HIV drugs prove to be successful against COVID-19 on a
large scale, they could quickly be administered to the coronavirus
patients.

“There is some evidence from laboratory studies that some HIV drugs might
also be active against SARS-CoV-2 and a trial has been underway for a
while using these drugs against MERS,” Professor Graham Cooke told Metro,
referring to Middle East Respiratory Syndrome.

“A number of studies are looking at one drug in particular, Kaletra, but
there are no results available yet. If HIV drugs did show an effect, one
advantage is that it would potentially be possible to supply them
quickly,” he added.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the

President Trump has boosted the economy, reduced illegal immigration,
appointed dozens of judges and created jobs.

Senile loser and NAMBLA supporter Nancy Pelosi got "Trumped" on February

I had read that COVID-19 has part of the AIDS virus and part of the
Ebola virus in it, which would explain in part how HIV fighting drugs
would work on the Wuhan virus as well. Good information you posted.
Thank you.

You have the virus's name mixed up with the name
of the disease it causes. COVID_19 is the disease
while SARS-CoV-2 is the virus.

You're welcome. Let this be an example to atheists
who are mostly bullies.

Christians are just so much more civilized. That
alone is proof of God.

So all the money wasted on queer diseases finally paid off for a new kind

But not in the USA.

The US spending for HIV / AIDS is $20.3 billion in 2019 alone. All that
money pissed away permitting male degenerates to engage in risky behavior.

About 100 people traveling to a global AIDS conference in Australia were
on board the Malaysia Airlines flight that crashed and killed 298 people
in eastern Ukraine, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.

The researchers, health workers and activists were on their way to the
International AIDS Conference in Melbourne. Among the victims planning
to attend was Dutch national Joep Lange, a top AIDS researcher and
former International AIDS Society president. Briton Glenn Thomas, a
spokesperson for the World Health Organization and a former BBC
journalist, was also on flight MH17.

The International AIDS Society expressed sadness over the news that its
colleagues were on the Malaysian jetliner.

“At this incredibly sad and sensitive time the IAS stands with our
international family and sends condolences to the loved ones of those
who have been lost to this tragedy,” the group said in a statement.

Friends and colleagues of those within the AIDS-research community,
including UNAIDS executive director Michel Sidibé, also expressed shock
and grief over the tragic deaths on Twitter.

My thoughts & prayers to families of those tragically lost on
flight #MH17. Many passengers were enroute to #AIDS2014 here in #Melbourne.
— Michel Sidibé (@MichelSidibe) July 17, 2014

What a HUGE loss to the world. Just learned that dear friend,
amazing father to 5 girls and veteran AIDS researcher Joep Lange was on
#MH17

— Dr. Seema Yasmin (@DoctorYasmin) July 17, 2014

How do we measure how much a person has done for humanity? People
like Joep change the course of epidemics.

— Dr. Seema Yasmin (@DoctorYasmin) July 17, 2014

Saddened to learn that my friend and @WHO staff who was traveling
to @AIDS_conference to Melbourne was on flight #MH17. RIP #Glenn Thomas

— Haile Getahun (@hygetahun) July 17, 2014

While the medical field mourns the lives of those killed, experts like
Associate Professor Brian Owler, federal president of the Australian
Medical Association, also fear that breakthroughs in HIV/AIDS research
will now be stalled.

Jesus never said we can't fight back. In fact, He tells His Disciples to
sell what they've got and buy swords. He advises us to "turn the other
cheek" only in petty conflicts. And what we're facing is far from a
petty conflict. We must fight back.

Close enough for hand grenades. So you better make sure your public

"Now, a recent research paper viewable on the Chinese research site
Chinaxiv.org and previously reported on by the South China Morning Post
notes that the new coronavirus has an "HIV-like mutation" that gives it
novel properties.

"Because of this mutation, the packing mechanism of the 2019-nCoV may be
changed to being more similar to those of MHV, HIV, Ebola virus (EBoV) and
some avian influenza viruses," the English abstract of the paper states."

"COVID-19 attacks a protein called furin — the same protein that is
attacked by Ebola and HIV, which are not coronaviruses."

If it wasn't for Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats distracting the media

sooner.

COVID-19 is the name of the disease, not the virus.
