It's American. The NHS will have their own rules on what can be given.

It’s ok to be positive. If it’s working there, surely the UK government will expedite the drug here.

For completeness ...

I don’t know that news source. Plus it was written 2 days ago.
The FDA approved it today, which is great.

Sorry but just because the FDA reported they'll use it really doesn't mean NICE will approve it in the UK. The study was small, poorly designed and 6/42 participants didn't even complete the study. There is no way that will be approved in this country for coronavirus off the back of that. I love the positivity, but trump is mad and this idea is sadly just as mad right now.

@Mumlove5

hope we get some useful data from this (and even confirmation if it doesn't work is sad but necessary to know)
