Will Corona Disappear Soon? .. Promising for Cholesterol Medicine
At a time when experts in the world are racing to find a cure and vaccine that will end its tragedy with the outbreak of the new Corona virus, which has claimed thousands of lives, studies are also racing to find out anything new about this strange epidemic

What is new today is that scientists in the United States have suggested that a cholesterol-lowering drug be effective in making Covid 19 treatable like the common cold
Researchers at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York have studied how to deprive the virus of the nutrients it needs to survive
And they found that the fat that accumulates inside the lung cells is a key component of what the virus needs to multiply, and therefore depriving the virus of this food may mean that the disease can be better controlled, indicating that it can turn into something similar to the common cold, in these cases
He almost completely disappeared
The researchers also stressed that if their findings are confirmed by clinical studies, this course of treatment may reduce the intensity of corona, while scientists have examined drugs that can interfere with the virus's ability to reproduce
The researchers found that one of the cholesterol-lowering medications had shown promising results, allowing lung cells to burn more fat, thereby depriving the coronavirus of the conditions it needed to survive
After 5 days of drug treatment, the researchers said that the virus had almost completely disappeared in laboratory studies
Really reduce the frequency of the virus
In another context, another study published by Cambridge University Press this week, found that three out of every four deaths from Corona virus in China were suffering from other health conditions, more than 40% of these suffer from high blood pressure, and more than a quarter of them suffer from heart disease , All linked to high cholesterol, but they hoped that through clinical trials, cholesterol treatment could become promising by fighting Covid 19
In turn, Professor Ian Jones, Professor of Virology at the University of Reading, said that the idea of the new study lies in preventing the main biochemical steps the virus uses, because this prevention leads to reduced infection with the virus, stressing that this study showed that a common drug to lower cholesterol actually reduced the frequency of the virus
It is noteworthy that the new Corona virus has so far claimed the lives of at least 590,132 people worldwide 132 since it appeared in China in December last year
