Curcumin inhibited the SARS-CoV-2 by post-infection treatment strategy. (A) Representative scheme of post-infection treatment. (B) The figure represents the reduction of D614G strain titer (PFU/mL) on Vero E6 supernatants after post-infection treatment with curcumin (from 1.25 to 10 µg/mL). Chloroquine (CQ) was included as a positive control of viral inhibition. Data were presented as median ± IQR (n = 4). Mann–Whitney test ** p  ≤  0.01. Inhibition percentages of 84.4%, 31.7%, 21.9%, and 14.8% were obtained at 10, 5, 2.5, and 1.25 µg/mL of curcumin, respectively. (C) Representative plaques on Vero E6 cells of post-infection treatment of curcumin against D614G strain.
