Dose matters: HIV drug could prevent coronaviruses, study finds

Coronaviruses are a global public health risk, with three highly infectious species, including SARS-CoV-2, emerging in the last 20 years.

The findings could strengthen the arsenal of antiviral drugs available to combat current and future coronavirus outbreaks.
