Abstract
As the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic takes its toll, the urgent search for effective preventive and therapeutic drugs is rapidly accelerating. Currently, there are no proven effective methods of treating COVID-19. Most antiviral drugs have only in vitro data. Solidarity clinical trials, in which not only the search for new drugs for the treatment of COVID-19 is carried out, but also the mass screening of existing drugs (mainly antivirals) that already have permission for use for treatment or for clinical trials. However, despite the great importance of a therapeutic strategy against the disease, the main way to prevent the spread of the virus is to develop an effective and safe prophylaxis.
