Discovery of anti-2019-nCoV agents from 38 Chinese patent drugs toward respiratory diseases via docking screening
There are a lot of experts discussing how the Corona virus uses ACE2 receptors to get into the lungs. I came across a paper the other day in which Chinese doctors have observed that the ligands found in citrus fruits (hesperidin and rutin) aid in preventing viral entry and replication in two ways, ACE2 and viral main protease, which are also targeted by most of their patented drugs.

(download the PDF and scroll to the Table 3 for the list of additional ligands)
