Going Viral: The Role of Remdesivir in COVID-19 - Online CME Course


Recorded: 01/26/2021

In the past year multiple different medications have been evaluated for use in COVID-19. Remdesivir is an antiviral that showed promise in SARS-CoV-2 infections early in 2020 then was subsequently FDA-approved for its use in COVID-19 in late 2020. This presentation will review the data behind remdesivir’s use and describe an ideal patient population for remdesivir.
