Experimental drug could prevent and treat COVID-19, UNC researchers report

by Mark Derewicz, staff reports February 9, 2021 . CHAPEL HILL – An experimental drug created at a subsidiary of Emory University has shown potential to both prevent and treat COVID-19, according to researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill. The drug, known as EIDD-2801, is being developed by Miami-based Ridgeback Biotherapeutics. Ridgeback is partnered with drug giant Merck in the development process. The drug was invented at Drug Innovations at Emory, a not-for-profit biotechnology company wholly owned by Emory University, according to Ridgeback. Nature, scientists at the UNC School of Medicine and UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health tested how the orally administered experimental drug halts SARS-CoV-2 replication and prevents infection of human cells in a new in vivo [in a living organism] model containing human lung tissue.

Antiviral medication works against coronavirus in lab

Date Time Antiviral medication works against coronavirus in lab CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – The number of new COVID-19 cases continues to rise in many parts of the world, with the highest incidence in the United States. Although several highly effective vaccines have been authorized for emergency use, it may take considerable time to reach target vaccination levels needed for herd immunity due to the logistics of vaccine manufacturing, shipping, storage, and distribution as well as public acceptance. Recently, SARS-CoV-2 variants have emerged which appear to have increased transmissibility and have added more challenges to ensure vaccine viability. Therefore, alternative treatments and preventive approaches that can be widely and rapidly implemented are urgently needed to curb the risk for COVID-19 related hospitalization and death in multiple settings including nursing homes and long-term care facilities.

State lab to start checking for coronavirus variant in NC :: WRAL com

Updated January 1, 2021 9:13 a.m. EST By Cullen Browder, WRAL anchor/reporter Raleigh, N.C. North Carolina s public health lab will soon start gene sequencing efforts to determine if a variant of the coronavirus is circulating in the state. The variant was first found in the U.K., and cases were confirmed this week in Colorado and California. It s not surprising that this variant was picked up in the U.K. first. They have really good sequencing, said Lisa Gralinski, an epidemiologist in the Gillings School of Global Public Health at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. They have government funding to be doing this all the time, so they ended up sequencing something like 7 to 10 percent of all of their cases. In the U.S., we have nothing like this.
