We're going to talk tonight about one of the great trials being launched around the world to try to find a cure for Covid-19.
Publicity
The European essay Discovery, ambitious on paper, but whose work is taking longer than expected. At the launch of this Discovery trial, we promised results after a few weeks, then at the end of April and finally, on May 14, 2020. This is what the French president announced last week, but he probably went a little quickly. In fact, it will take several weeks at least, according to several doctors. So why is the Discovery trial not going as planned?
Our Guests :
- Dr Jean-Philippe Lanoix, infectious disease specialist and Discovery investigator at the University Hospital of Amiens
- Damien Coulomb, health journalist at the Doctor's Daily.
