The correct answer to this question is No. Though many health officials are working hard to provide a cure for the virus, there is not one yet. Despite there being no cure, China has been providing the medicine Favipiavir, also known by its brand name Avigan, to its citizens.

This medicine is a flu medicine, and those they have given the medicine to have shown a quick relief from the symptoms of the virus, including their respiratory symptoms. However, the World Health Organization has refuted this as a false treatment and has not provided any official cure or vaccine for the virus.

There is no medicine for Coronavirus, yet although China is trying its best to learn more about the disease. The main goal of this is to come up with a vaccine that may be effective in fighting the virus. There are still different medications that are being tested if they would be able to get rid of the virus.

There are some that are being mixed and checked so that people will be able to come up with the right medication. There are already come countries that have offered prize money to anyone who would be able to come up with medication or those who would be able to come up with a vaccine.

There is still no cure available for the Coronavirus. Although there are some medications that are still going through a series of tests just to check if they would possibly work for people, some say that they have tried plasma therapy for those who are in critical condition.

Basically, plasma therapy involves the use of antibodies from those who have survived the virus already. This will hopefully help the body of someone who is in critical condition to know how to fight the virus and, maybe, potentially recover from it. There are still many people from various parts of the world who are working on finding a cure.

There is no cure for COVID-19 at present. Health officials say that some specific drugs are in development for treatment, but more research is necessary to determine the value of these potential cures. The World Health Organization is quick to refute the medical relevancy of these (what they refer to as) false treatments.

Most people infected with the coronavirus will experience mild respiratory symptoms and can recover at home, but those with underlying conditions may need monitored care. China is saying that there is a flu medicine from Japan called, Favipiavir ( brand name Avigan) shows promise in treating COVID -19. It has also been noted that this particular drug is much safer than the vast array of the other medications they have been testing within the medical community.
