Although the traditional nearly decade-long clinical trial timelines completely collapsed during COVID, this truncating was not necessarily novel. Precedent exists for accelerating approval timelines during health emergencies such as the AIDs/HIV epidemic, where Compound S, a re-make of AZT, or azidothymidine, originally developed to fight cancer, became controversially fast-tracked after the discovery that it could block HIV activity. Likewise, when potentially lifesaving drugs are
