Roger Seheult, MD of reviews many new COVID-19 developments. Some clinicians and hospitals are resistant to utilize dexamethasone for COVID 19 until the data from the Recovery Trial gets published. Dr. Paul Sax of Harvard offers an opinion of why we should not wait. A recent article in the journal Nature provides insight into the longevity of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and differences between asymptomatic and symptomatic patients. Finally, more studies in the UK on the link between vitamin D and COVID-19. (This video was recorded June 22, 2020).
