Antivirals

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Antiviral drugs are not relevant to Zika as there have been no effective drugs against it (so far). I would also suppose that unless the antivirals article mentioned Zika at some point in the future, it wouldn't really belong within the Zika template. Alcherin (talk) 22:24, 4 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

It's all in flux, but given that a number of drugs are effective or being tested against related viruses, there may well be some that are effective against Zika in some way, as per doi:10.1111/trf.13271 or doi:10.12688/f1000research.8013.1 or doi:10.3760/cma.j.issn.2095-4352.2016.02.005 or doi:10.6084/m9.figshare.2753080.v1. -- Daniel Mietchen (talk) 07:49, 5 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
