I have been searching for any double blind studies relating to the use of anti-asthmatic agents, inhaled corticosteroids, ICS, beclomethasone, budesonide, fluticasone, mometasone furoate, ciclesonide, flunisolide.
There is positive anecdotal evidence of these corticosteroids being useful as posted by Noel and others. I have read reports from Oxford University that provide some science related to this issue. Oxford has done a rapid review of evidence for treatment or prevention of Covid-19 using corticosteroids.
I have not found any controlled human testing to look at. I seen reports that South Korea may be doing some trials.
I am looking for hard scientific data if it exist, on both in vitro and in vivo studies.
I know that China has done some limited testing.
I have a fairly developed general concept of how corticosteroids work and have some reason to believe they may be very useful...just my unproven thinking/guessing. I was vaguely aware that steroids were being used/tested but Noel got me to seriously digging into this. Thanks Noel...I think...lol
If any of you know of such data please inform me.
Cheers,
Billy
EDIT: If any of you have a interest in the mRNA vaccine and would like to read about the human genome this is a site that can explain in understandable terms how it works.
