Abstract

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic at the end of 2019, we have been experiencing another phase of our planet in which the presence of a new infectious agent has brought many doubts and uncertainties regarding the way to treat it, as the best medicine is still not known to use to treat this infection [1].

In this editorial, I would like readers to turn their minds to older medicines that existed in the past and that have been forgotten by the current medical community due to some norms implemented in the past since 1910 with the implementation of the Flexner report [2].
