Peter Lederman in Second Bout With COVID-19


I saw on Facebook late last night that Mike Fremer told one of his Audio Friends that he heard from Peter Lederman of Soundsmith that he is suffering his second round with COVID.  Peter said he has blood clots on his lungs. That is all the post said.  Here is hoping that Peter pulls through with a full recovery.

All the best to Peter.  You are in the thoughts of many more than you can even imagine.  Get well soon.
lewm - thanks for the informed and lucid post.  Science must maintain primacy.
Not sure if you're referring to my comment.  I reported what CytoDyne said on their site, not from a trial.
I read the writeup on the CytoDyn website and Leronimab seems to have some efficacy against HIV and some cancers.  The trial in the Philippines would seem to have little rationale other than the partial overlap in disease mechanisms among viral infections.  In fact, there is an entire paragraph explaining CytoDyn's use of optimistic terminology in the writeup which reads as a statement saying "don't read more into the data than there really is".  So, like glupson, I too hope that the drug is effective against COVID-19 but, thus far, there isn't much evidence that that is the case.
