Finding new uses for old medications isn't a new practice. But when COVID-19 turned into a pandemic last year, the race was on to find anything already on the market to fight the illness caused by the virus.

Today on Wellness Wednesday on All Sides with Ann Fisher, we discuss the business of repurposing drugs in a pandemic.

Guests:
Dr. David Fajgenbaum, immunologist at the University of Pennsylvania and the director of the Center for Cytokine Storm Treatment and Laboratory
Dr. Phillip Gardiner, co-chairman of the African American Tobacco Control Leadership Council
Cheryl Pete, ATR-BC; clinical director, Art Therapy Studio
