The headlines you're seeing about Remdesivir are totally inaccurate.
It is not correct to say that a "clinical trial failed."
It was so utterly flawed as to be meaningless.
Now it appears that they were giving the drug to critically ill patients. It's supposed to be given to people with "moderate" cases of the virus.
It's ridiculous to give a drug to people who are beyond being helped, and then say it "failed" because they didn't survive.
It's also ridiculous to believe any "study" that comes out of China, especially given that their previous study claiming that hydroxychloroquine worked was found NOT to have proof of efficacy, when they finally allowed Western scientists to see the raw data and analyze it.
Brilacidin very well may be the drug we need -- but let's not repeat untruths being featured in headlines written by people who didn't understand the news.
