ACE2 a GREAT WAY to block the viruses entry into the body…
HOWEVER
Far safer ways to block ACE2 than statin drugs (as that study suggests).
Here is a study from Nature Magazine on licorice: https://www.nature.com/articles/news030609-16
"High doses of the liquorice extract, called glycyrrhizin, practically wipe out the SARS virus in infected monkey cells, find virologist Jindrich Cinatl of Frankfurt University Medical School, Germany and his colleagues. The drug is more potent than ribavirin, the most commonly used treatment for SARS.
Glycyrrhizin makes it difficult for the SARS virus to attach to and invade a target cell, the team found. It also hinders virus reproduction, slowing its spread from one cell to the next."
In the past two months, for example, Baker and other researchers at USAMRIID have tested over 200,000 compounds, sent in from laboratories across the world. "We're using a combination of brute force - screening just about every compound we can get our hands on - and a more rational approach - screening drugs that have already been licensed," says Baker. The team has yet to publish its results.
