Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Modulation of the RAS by the chronic hepatitis C virus treatment either by (ACEI or ARBS), (Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir), (Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir plus Ribavirin), or (Ribavirin and Interferon) protocols could give an explanation for the low incidence of COVID-19 among Egyptian population. Adding it may play a role in COVID 19 prophylaxis.
