If there's a drug that has already been approved and has shown efficacy, it can be used off-label right now. A drug that is close to approval can be jumped to the head of the line and approved, as we've seen.
When someone's bleeding to death, you don't wait until the ambulance eventually arrives with state-of-the-art equipment and different sizes of sterile dressings. You slam an emergency dressing on to stop the bleeding so the patient survives until they can be treated with the best treatments and equipment.
That's what's going on now. Anything that helps, even somewhat, will be used until they figure out what the best practices are.
And that's why people need to isolate themselves and try not to get infected, and especially try not to infect anyone else. The longer we can keep from overwhelming the hospitals with critically ill patients, the better. When we know more what the best drugs are to use, perhaps people can be prevented from getting to the stage where they ARE critically ill.
I don't know why that's so hard for so many people to understand.
