Hello all,


I wish everyone the best of health but given the reality of the situation, I would like to spread awareness in the community for a NIHR (National Institute for Health Research) Covid home trial involving Southampton company Synairgen?s interferon beta-1a product.


This is the most promising Covid therapeutic in development so far, with positive results from its Phase 2 study published in the Lancet journal on November 12th: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanres/article/PIIS2213-2600(20)30511-7/fulltext


In short, they are running a home and a hospital trial alongside Phase 3.


To qualify for the home trial you need to be aged over 65 years old. or aged 50 and above and have other illnesses which makes you more susceptible to complications of COVID-19, with a confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection.


You can read more detail about it at their website https://www.covidtrialathome.com or you can contact the University of Southampton trial team directly at [email protected] or 0330 133 2870 (9am - 5pm, Mon - Fri).


To qualify for the hospital trial you would need to be aged 18 or over and with a confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection which has caused admission to hospital. See link on the NIHR site here: https://bepartofresearch.nihr.ac.uk/trial-details/trial-detail?trialId=9286&location=&distance=


Please share if you think this could be helpful to any friends or family.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
