How 2DG works against Covid?
Is it effective against Covid variants?
According to Dr. Anil Mishra, director of INMAS, 2DG captures the virus that makes up its copy. That is, if there is any variant of the virus, it will search for food and as soon as it moves to satisfy his hunger, this medicine will trap it.
According to Dr. Mishra, after taking this medicine, the demand for oxygen increases as the virus rapidly multiplies. Once that process is stopped, the crisis of oxygen will also end.
