Last week, UT Southwestern Medical Center published an article which outlined seven signs being monitored that could point toward renewed hope that the pandemic in DFW could be done soon. Among the most promising of the signs are research efforts, which include more than 180 investigational studies, biomedical research, and clinical trials being conducted at the university. One trial is investigating the drug atovaquone, which is already FDA approved to treat pneumonia, as a viable option for COVID-19 infections. 

UTSW also noted that testing has become more readily accessible in the DFW market and doctors are seeing more treatment therapies working within the hospitals. To read the full list of encouraging signs, please visit https://utswmed.org/medblog/covid-19-positive-signs/
