    Document: Despite the unprecedented mobilization of the clinical and scientific community, the 57 development and large scale implementation of new antiviral drugs or vaccines will take 58 months or more. To readily propose a first line of defense and combat the virus in hospitalized 59 patients, the World Health Organization relies on already existing drugs ("repurposed") that 60 are immediately available in large quantities and have a good safety profile. In coordination 61 with other European institutions, France is implementing a randomized clinical trial in 62 hospitalized patients ("DisCoVery", NCT04315948) comparing the efficacy of 63 lopinavir/ritonavir ± IFN-β-1a, remdesivir and hydroxychloroquine. Given the very limited 64 knowledge of the host/pathogen interaction the clinical efficacy of treatment strategies using 65 these drugs is largely unknown and could be limited [1] . 66
