Isn’t Azithromycin antibiotics? (Z-pack?) How would that help vs a virus? Or does it just help the body from having other unrelated things to also fight?

- treis 7y agoIt has a broad effect on the immune system and inflammation beyond it's anti-bacterial effects. Lots of changes to the production/expression of different factors and cell mechanisms. I don't think it's fully understood how it helps in situations like this but probably related to inflammation and reducing the cytokine storm.
