Revere over at Effect Measure has a terrific piece today about the frustrating lack of research on statins, which are suspected by some researchers to harbor promise as treatment for influenza.
I’d have recommended this blog, even if there wasn’t a very kind hat tip to AFD in it (thanks guys!).
I’ll just step aside and send you to:
Statins for influenza. Why don't we know if it works yet?
Category: Infectious disease • Influenza treatment
Statins for influenza are in the news again, this time because of a paper given at the Annual Meeting of the Infectious Disease Society of America (IDSA). We'll get to it in a moment, but first a little background.
As a reminder, Dr. David Fedson will be interviewed on Radio Sandy Springs by Sharon Sanders of FluTrackers this coming Monday, at 4pm (EST). No doubt, statins will be part of the discussion.
