This is interesting: The SaNOtize nitric oxide spray is designed to prevent the virus from passing through the nose to the respiratory system. The trial will be run by Ashford and St Peter’s Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in Surrey. https://t.co/LT1vCevB8j

#Covid busting nasal spray begins #UK trials

The first UK clinical trials of a #nasal spray proven to kill 99.9% of the #coronavirus that causes Covid-19 will begin on January 11th at Ashford and St Peter’s Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, in #Surrey. https://t.co/c9DH8tBj3M
in killing the #coronavirus in independent lab tests at Utah State University’s Antiviral Research Institute. Additional studies in rodents with COVID-19 infection showed over 95% reduction within the first day after infection.

shown to have a direct effect on #SARS–#CoV-2, the virus that causes #Covid-19. The treatment can be delivered by nasal spray, throat gargle or nasal lavage.

Rodent studies performed at Colorado State University showed an average of over 95% reduction in SARS-CoV-2 viral load tested on the day following infection with half the rodents having no detectable virus at all. This was following inoculation with the virus

and offers a significant advance in our therapeutic armoury against this devastating disease. Ashford and St Peters Hospitals #NHS Foundation Trust is proud to be at the forefront of trialling this intervention,” said Pankaj Sharma MD PhD FRCP, Professor of Neurology

for which he shared the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1998. Prof Murad is a member of the board of SaNOtize.

“Nitric oxide is an incredibly versatile molecule that regulates almost everything in our body,” Dr Murad said. “When used therapeutically,
“The SaNOtize nasal spray provides a barrier. It contains nitric oxide which prevents and treats early infection by destroying the virus and impeding viral replication within the cells in the nose. In addition, nitric oxide has been shown to block the ACE-2 receptor

and the virus tries to attach to the cells in your nose, and it takes a while to incubate, and multiply in nasal cells for a few days and then the virus will shed into your lungs.”

and you can’t always control social distancing as we end lockdown, and so we have nasal sprays throughout the day. At the end of the day you come home and you basically rinse your nose and your nasopharynx, so that will clean your nose, your sinuses, and the back of your throat

“If, as we expect, the current Phase II results in Canada confirm the very encouraging results received from the Antiviral Research Institute and ongoing studies at Colorado State University SaNOtize will be seeking emergency approval in Canada to proceed directly to Phase IV

Mutant strains may develop, requiring changes to the vaccine. It is not known how long the immunological protection will last. It is also unclear if the vaccines will prevent vaccinated people from becoming infected and potentially transmit the virus to other non-protected people

The nasal spray not only can block entry of the #virus, but the active ingredient nitric oxide actually kills the virus and prevents it from multiplying.

If successful, people in Britain and Europe could have an effective, safe and accessible treatment within months
and destroy it by applying the SaNOtize solution on a regular basis,” Wilson said

“The SaNOtize treatment should be thought of as an effective treatment for the upper airways, similar to when people use hand sanitizers to clean their hands on the outside of the body.
especially in the early period of the infection.

Hospital trials with nitric oxide are underway in the US and Europe with seriously ill coronavirus patients inhaling the gas to kill the virus in their lungs and prevent progression to severe infection.
with the goal of preventing severe inflammatory response and infection of the lungs. #Scientists believe the coronavirus is transmitted via airborne droplets to the mucous membranes in the nose, where it is replicated during a three-day incubation period,

Nasal spray blocks viral entry into the body, destroys virus and prevents it from multiplying

Nitric oxide blocks ACE-2 receptor essential for the virus to infect cells, destroys Covid mutant variations
Clinical trials already underway in Canada and approved to start in the USA
#London University professor conducting trial hopes for ‘significant advance in our therapeutic armoury against this devastating disease’
