United States to unveil pills to minimise symptoms of Covid-19

The United States is devoting more than three billion US dollars (£2 billion) to advance development of antiviral pills for Covid-19.
Dr Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, announced the investment during a White House briefing as part of a new “antiviral program for pandemics” to develop drugs to address symptoms caused by potentially dangerous viruses like the coronavirus.
