What is remdesivir and what's all the fuss about?

An experimental antiviral drug called remdesivir is being touted as a possible treatment for COVID-19 patients.

An unpublished, non-peer reviewed trial from America has found that it seems to lower the time patients spend in hospital, and might help reduce death rates.

So how excited should we be about this drug?

On today’s show:

* What’s remdesivir?

* Where does it come from?

* What do we know about side effects?

* What about that study from China that found it provided no benefit?

* Is lifting restrictions now too risky?

* What does all the research into SARS-CoV-2 mean for the common cold?
