Researchers from Australia, Canada, Costa Rica and the UK have found a solution to the deadly venom of cobra that claims the lives of 1.38 lakh people annually every year. This would also help over 50 lakh people who get bitten by cobra every year.
The Australian researchers have found that a common blood thinner, heparin, could "drastically reduce the terrible injuries from necrosis caused by cobra bites and it might also slow the venom, which could improve survival rates."
