BALTIMORE (WMAR) — When Johns Hopkins husband and wife researchers started developing a drug to treat inflammation 15 years ago, they had no idea it would become heartbreakingly personal.⁠
⁠
They are confident it can help COVID-19 patients, though it’s too late to save some of their family members.⁠
⁠
“It’s been especially hard because we think they would have benefited from this therapy,” said Johns Hopkins critical care doctor Sujatha Kannan.⁠
⁠
Since the pandemic began, Kannan and her husband have lost four close family members to the virus. Kannan’s parents were visiting family in India, set to return to the U.S. when the pandemic hit.⁠
