quote:
we tested a commercially available nasal spray containing iota-carrageenan in an influenza A mouse infection model. Treatment of mice infected with a lethal dose of influenza A PR8/34 H1N1 virus with iota-carrageenan starting up to 48 hours post infection resulted in a strong protection of mice similar to mice treated with oseltamivir. Since alternative treatment options for influenza are rare, we conclude that the nasal spray containing iota-carrageenan is an alternative to neuraminidase inhibitors and should be tested for prevention and treatment of influenza A in clinical trials in humans.

Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine act as zinc ionophores which help zinc enter cells. Once in the cell the zinc interferes with a virus enzyme and prevents reproducion of the viral RNA. It appears that quercetin (a flavonoid) and EGCG (in green tea) also act like zinc ionophores. Quercetin and zinc supplements are available.

"Three things the virus does not like: 1. Sunlight, 2. Temperature, and 3. Humidity," Nicholls said in response to a question about when he thinks confirmed cases will peak, the transcript showed.

"Sunlight will cut the virus' ability to grow in half so the half-life will be 2.5 minutes and in the dark it's about 13 to 20 [minutes]," Nicholls said. "Sunlight is really good at killing viruses."

The patients were matched for age, sex, race or ethnicity, comorbidities and a illness severity score (qSOFA). Of those requiring mechanical ventilation fewer patients died in the ivermectin group (7.3% versus 21.3%) and overall death rates were lower with ivermectin (1.4% versus 8.5%; HR 0.20 CI 95% 0.11-0.37, p<0.0001).

Umckaloabo

Here's an interesting story of a man who was diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis in 1897, went to South Africa and was given an herbal preparation containing Umckaloabo (Pelargonium sidoides - an African geranium) to treat his tuberculosis. Later, he tried to sell it and was accused of being a quack by the British Medical Association

L. reuteri

A considerable amount of research has been done to determine the beneficial effects of L. reuteri against viruses and/or fungi. There is evidence showing the benefit of L. reuteri against pneumoviruses, circoviruses, rotaviruses, coxsackieviruses, and papillomaviruses (Shornikova et al., 1997a,b; Preidis et al., 2012; Ang et al., 2016; Brenner et al., 2016; Piyathilake et al., 2016; Karaffova et al., 2017). It has been suggested that L. reuteri ameliorates viral infection by regulating the microbiota and secreting metabolites that have antiviral components (Ang et al., 2016). Furthermore, some studies suggest that L. reuteri may have antifungal properties as well, where L. reuteri antagonizes, stops the growth of, and eventually kills various species of Candida (Jorgensen et al., 2017).

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5917019/

In mice, intranasal inoculation of L. reuteri or L. plantarum have been shown protective effects against pneumonia virus lethal infection (18)
