The Department of Microbiology, Li Ka-shing School of Medicine, University of Hong Kong said on 26 August 2020 that its team has discovered a new broad-spectrum antiviral strategy against new coronavirus and other viral infections. A broad-spectrum antiviral peptide, P9R, can fight at least six respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 and influenza virus. The team believes that this discovery has important implications for the control of emerging virus infections.

Zhao Yangjun, a member of the team and a research assistant professor in the Department of Microbiology, University of Hong Kong Li Ka-shing School of Medicine, said in an interview with a reporter from China News Service on 26 August that the team has been studying similar peptides since seven or eight years ago.

Zhao Yangjun said that P9R is currently a new broad-spectrum antiviral agent and has not been used in clinical treatment of patients. The team hopes to develop it into a broad-spectrum antiviral drug, which may be able to treat covid or new viral diseases that will appear in the future effectively.

According to a press release issued by the Department of Microbiology, Li Ka-shing School of Medicine, University of Hong Kong, the research results were published in the international scientific journal Nature Communications on 25 August 2020.

The study showed that the defensin-like peptide P9R showed effective antiviral activity against acid-dependent viruses, including the suppression of the 2009 pandemic H1N1 virus, avian influenza A H7N9 virus, and coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2, MERS coronavirus and SARS-CoV) and rhinovirus.

  1. It was during my research on HIV/Herpes that I stumbled upon the Hiv/Herpes information; information which is quite easy to find when doing a search for STD on google. I was into conspiracy at the time thought of HIV/Herpes Cured' being a conspiracy was something Ignorance though,I found pretty interesting about herbal medicine. I asked questions about the Herbal cure's on official HIV/Herpes websites and I was banned for doing so by moderators who told me that I was parroting Hiv/Herpes propaganda. This reinforced my belief that there is a cure for Hiv/Herpes Then i found a lady from germany name Achima Abelard Dr Itua Cure her Hiv so I send him a mail about my situation then talk more about it and send me his herbal medicine I drank for two weeks.And today I'm Cured no Hiv/Herpes in my life,I searched for Hiv/Herpes groups to attempt to make contact with people in order to learn more about Hiv/Herpes Herbal Cure's I believed at this time that you with the same disease this information is helpful to you and I wanted to do the best I could to spread this information in the hopes of helping other people.That Dr Itua Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's,Alzheimer’s disease,Bechet’s disease,Crohn’s disease,Cushing’s disease,Heart failure,Multiple Sclerosis,Hypertension,Colo_Rectal Cancer,Lyme Disease,Blood Cancer,Brain Cancer,Breast Cancer,Lung Cancer,Kidney Cancer,Love Spell,psoriasis,Lottery Spell,disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Syndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva.Infertility,Tach Disease ,Epilepsy ,Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,Autism,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma, (measles, tetanus, whooping cough, tuberculosis, polio and diphtheria)Allergic diseases.Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Lung Cancer,Breast Cancer,Colo-Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Prostate Cancer,siva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone ToxicitySyndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans ProgresSclerosis,Seizures,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma,Allergic diseases.Hiv_ Aids,Herpe ,Copd,Glaucoma., Cataracts,Macular degeneration,Cardiovascular disease,Lung disease.Enlarged prostate,Osteoporosis.
