As new variants of SARS-CoV-2 emerge, new combination therapies are needed to reduce the risk of COVID- 19spreadduring this time of increased transmission risk. In this case, it is vitalto strengthen the immune system against highly inflammatory conditions such as the cytokine storm caused by COVID-19.
