Some of the first results from clinical trials with Remdesivir, the drug being promoted as the answer to SARS-CoV-2 treatment, have been released and, so far, it doesn’t look so good.

Four of the five trial participants had adverse side effects, including renal failure with two patients requiring transplants.

Eight members are receiving financial support in the way of research funds or consulting fees from Gilead, Remdesivir’s maker.
