New Cure for Viral Diseases?
Aug-13-09
It could be the biggest breakthrough since the discovery of penicillin: a new generation of antivirals that work against a huge range of viruses, including ones that don't exist yet.Functional Genetics is working on an entirely new class of antiviral drugs that should do something seemingly impossible: work against a wide range of existing viruses and also be effective against viruses that have not even evolved yet. What's more, it should be extremely difficult for any virus to become resistant to these drugs. At last, doctors will be able to treat viral diseases as ably as they do bacterial ones.
