Question

Is this sentence correct?

"In the next decade, if we have an effective early treatment, we would give it to people before they had symptoms."

Can I replace the underlined words with had, would and have?

Avangi · Accepted Answer

I'd say, had; would; had

and have; will; have

I guess my answer to your question is "no."

Hi,

If the statement is highlighting facts, for e.g. "If I were you, I would tell her that the sky ?? blue.",
we should use 'was' instead of 'is'?

Avangi · Answer

I would use "is" with the subjunctive.
