One aspect of COVID-19, discovered early in the pandemic, is that the illness occurs in two well-defined phases: an early and a late phase, usually demarcated by the onset of pneumonia. A fundamental discovery revealed that early- versus late-stage COVID-19 disease often requires radically different treatment protocols. Early-stage illness dictates bolstering the innate antiviral immune response, a process governed by the action of interferon. Late-stage illness, when the body's adaptive immune system starts to kick in, requires measures geared toward dampening immune activity. In this clip, Dr. Roger Seheult describes how treatment modalities differ between the two distinct phases of COVID-19 illness.
