After plasma therapy and Hydroxychloroquine, now WHO drops Remdesivir from the official medical list of COVID treatments. This comes even as the Indian government has accelerated the approval process of 38 additional manufacturing sites to boost Remdesivir production. Is COVID-19 treatment emerging to be a giant medical experiment?
