An Aspirin a day...

This seems to be some interesting research to help prevent worsening symptoms of Covid https://www.sciencedaily.com/release...1022195637.htm

Potentially, this may off a way for people’s condition not to deteriorate further and what is so good, is that this is well well known safe medication! Certainly food for thought!

My parents have always taken an aspirin a day so hopefully this will now have the added bonus of preventing symptoms worsening in Covid, a win, win :love_heart:

It seems the old ways are still the best :love_heart::love_heart:

I guess it would make sense, Covid is an inflammatory illness, and Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory. Good to know, thank you for sharing!

Interestingly, these more simple drugs are not being touted as helpful at all in the treatment of Covid. Given how much emphasis is being put on (incl £££) into a vaccine, how come there isn’t as much focus on early treatment for those with Covid?

I think they are not using the simple drugs because pharmaceutical companies want to sell their revolutionary new drug at a cost of trillions when we probably could have just taken an aspirin!
