Can you But, it doesn’t seem to be happening at the moment. However, in the same episode, research conducted in America states that cannabidiol (CBD), which is an active ingredient found in cannabis, may help prevent infection with the virus of COVID-19. can be found.
Still many tests left
After this research, questions have arisen in the minds of people, can cannabis help to stay away from the corona? According to the researchers, CBD has produced promising results in lab tests. However, he has said that some more tests are yet to be done before reaching this conclusion.
Human trial yet to come
According to the news published in WION, researchers have said that the results of the lab test are positive, but the test is yet to be done on humans. Only after that, it can be said whether this research will prove to be helpful in eliminating corona or not. The thing to note at the moment is that there are many such treatments of COVID which gave good results in test tubes, but then they did not work any further. That’s why researchers say that after seeing how it will result on humans, its conclusion will be drawn.
Hard to claim
Marsha Rosner of the University of Chicago, who represented the research team, told Reuters news agency, ‘Our results do not say that CBD will work on patients. Our results make a strong case for clinical trials. At present, it has not been tested on humans, so it cannot be assumed whether eating cannabis, etc. will prevent the coronavirus.
Positive effect on rats
However, it has been found in the research that, CBD is definitely preventing the coronavirus from making its copy. The researchers found the same effect on infected mice. They reported that pre-clinical studies suggest that CBD treatment reduced viral titers in the lungs and nasal turbinates of SARS-CoV-2-infected mice. For this reason, it is being expressed that cannabis can prove to be helpful in eliminating corona. However human trials are yet to be done.
