Sajid Javid, the Secretary of State for Health, has invited everyone who is eligible to "come forward" and "assist us in learning more about treatments that potentially save thousands of lives."

He explained that antivirals were "part of our approach as we learn to live with Covid, keeping the most vulnerable from being hospitalized."

The following will be used in the Panoramic trial:

Merck, Sharp and Dohme (MSD) makes molnupiravir, and Pfizer makes paxlovid, which is used in combination with another medicine called ritonavir.
