More on Mutant SARS-CoV-2: Evade Pfizer’s Paxlovid & Gilead’s Remdesivir & Need for Better Drugs for Immunocompromised
- "While people with working immune systems can typically clear SARS-CoV-2 within days, those who are immunocompromised may continue to harbor and shed the virus for longer, even without symptoms. They also often receive multiple antiviral treatments over time, which may lead to the emergence of drug-resistant variants. This represents a big problem for society as they can become places for the virus to mutate and grow and spread."
