Interferons and their inducers as elements in control of COVID‑19

Abstract

The article analyzes the properties of various types of interferons, including those recently discovered, discusses the possibility of their use in the treatment of coronavirus, the reasons for the restrictions for some patients, as well as the prospects for the development of a universal antiviral agent by scientists.
