"In summary , while protease inhibitors may decrease viral burden , inhaled nitric oxide may reduce V / Q mismatch , anticytokine therapy may treat cytokine storm or prevent its progression , and immunomodulators like chloroquine / hydroxychloroquine may inhibit viral replication , RRx-001 may serve as an all-in-one therapy , which improves cardiopulmonary function , decreases viral burden and reduces the systemic inflammatory response ."

"CQ and HCQ may interfere with virus replication at the early stages of infection or increasing endosome-mediated pH at the viral entry / cell fusion , as well as post-translational modification of the glycosylation of cellular receptors of SARS-CoV-2.6 Along with this , Savarino et al suggested that CQ may reduce the level of inflammatory cytokines and could ameliorate acute respiratory distress syndrome.11 Recent preliminary clinical studies suggested that CQ and HCQ may be able to lower the COVID-19 viral load and reduce the duration of viremia ."
