Topic	Move over ivermectin. Brazilian viper venom is the next fad.
Clench281 09/02/21 6:37:32 AM #2:	Whole venom is not being used as a therapeutic. Snake venom has dozens to hundreds of components, and they vary from one snake to another.

It's clear the consequence of the headline will be people think raw, unprocessed venom. Better title: molecule isolated from viper venom may become tool in fighting covid It's an opportunity to teach readers how and why massive drug screening experiments are done --- Take me for what I am -- who I was meant to be. And if you give a damn, take me baby, or leave me. <cite>Clench281 posted [p:957663939] in Move over ... [t:79642585]...</cite> <quote>Whole venom is not being used as a therapeutic.
