Lloyds Pharmacy is set to launch what it calls the UK’s first ever nasal spray specifically designed to fight Covid-19.
The spray, called Viraleze, claims to be made from “a specifically designed antiviral active that irreversibly inactivates greater than 99.9 per cent of coronavirus/SARS-CoV-2 within one minute”...
It should be used once in each nostril up to four times a day...
Each bottle contains 80 sprays.
Viraleze launches online this week, ahead of an in-store rollout from April 21, and will be priced at £15.
That would be £15 for 10 days or nearly £550 per year. Not for mouth breathers presumably.

Asthma steroid inhalers containing Budesonide previously found to cure >95% of hospital patients in with Covid.
Possibly just a tad cheaper?

They're determined to get this stuff into us.
Sam - imagine what fun it would be to fly one.
MrMC - that should clear the sinuses.
Nessimmersion - and it's a treatment which was obviously worth trying. This video is worth a look if you haven't seen it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80Vz7tZLuBI
James - only if it is expensive.
Salt water sniffed up the nose works just as well and it's free.
Or Sterimar (which is effectively the same - salt water - if you prefer a nasal spray.
Or Boots 'Dual Defence' which coats the mucus membranes with sticky stuff to trap more in the breath.
All innocuous and used over decades for warding off colds and flu, so there's little need for some new drug-based 'solution'.
Can you get it in suppository form? You know where you can stick it.
What about in a white powder form?
I see an advertising slogan "Would you like to snuff it?"
Bob Newhart, we need you now.
Ed - my mother used to make us sniff up salt water when we had the sniffles. I don't remember if it worked though. I often wonder if living by the sea is healthier than inland, and if so whether salt in the air has something to do with it.
Doonhamer - I believe you can get something similar in suppository form. One for Matt to try out perhaps.
