- Dr Janis toboggan has two patients who were admitted to her hospital with covid-19. And she gave them both the drug known as remdesivir. Patient A got better and was released from the hospital in two days, but it took a week for patient b to recover and be sent home. That’s interesting though dr toboggan. “Why did the drug work differently in the two patients? Remedesivir seemed to help one patient but not the other. Maybe the drug speeds up recovery but the patients had different levels of infection. Or, maybe remdesvir didn’t have any effect on recovery, and the patients were just at a different places in their infections by the Novel corona virus. To find which hypothesis was a better explanation her data, Dr To boggan applies a little deductive reading. “What if I set up a situation where I have two patients at the same point in their infection and I give one the drug and one not? If remedesivir speeds up recovery, then the one with the drug will recover faster. But if…arrow_forwardThe following structures were introduced as neuromuscular blocking agents.
