Much more likely they'd buy them and bury it. Tptb don't want a cure, doncha know?

I doubt that, there's profit to be made and no one passes up profit.

Just bought some stock just in case this works. It's already up over 150% today, so highly risky.

Thing is, even if this works it will take several months before it is available.

Great post, Amazing stuff.

But let’s see Fauci reaction.
From the article Link

This is the best solution," he said. "The point of making a vaccine is to generalize a neutralizing antibody. So, if you already have one, you don't need to the body to generate one from a vaccine. You've already provided it. You're cutting out the middleman."

yikes 😬, That won’t read well to Fauci.

It was recently announced Sorrento had partnered with New York-based health care system Mount Sinai to develop an antibody cocktail. Dubbed Covi-Shield, the cocktail will be comprised of three different antibodies and, pending FDA approval, will be used as a prophylactic treatment for people returning to work and those who have been exposed to COVID-19.

Ahh. 😅 Don’t worry Fauci you still got the FDA to help you out.

As soon as it is infused, that patient is now immune to the disease," Dr. Brunswick said to Fox News. "For the length of time, the antibody is in that system. So, if we were approved [by the FDA] today, everyone who gets that antibody can go back to work and have no fear of catching COVID-19

😬 there it is again, Hope.

I'll take 4

This article is way too optimistic, I don’t think the left will be able to comprehend such positivity.

Don't worry, the dems will announce the drug as fascist, sexist,rascist, and homophobic.

Thats just it - there is no profit in a cure. The money is on an ongoing treatment that never really cures anything.

So they buy the cure and/or suppress it or whatever (just like they've done with Vitamin C), and then sell you remdesivir every time you 'catch the nasty virus' (whether you need it or not).

I guess Cutter and Wyeth gave out polio vaccines for free.

It’s about to be Fire season in California. SanDiego has a history of bad fires.

Came to mind after reading about this.

There was no treatment for polio, though.

Oh, wait, yes there is - Dr. Klenner cured many cases of polio, even flaccid polio, with high dose Vitamin C...

Your point was there was no money in curing this, did Wyeth, Cutter et al give away vaccines for free or did they sell them?

"scurvy" is an 18th century shorthand for vitamin D deficiency and it stands to reason that vitamin C might work to cure a vitamin C deficiency.

Correct, but there are lots of potential treatments being experimented with (when there is one solid one that would save these peoples lives bing totally ignored).

I dunno - but if there was no money in treatment, then there was obviously more money in a vaccine... no?

Correct - thank you for admitting you were wrong.

Polio isn't the only example of pharmaceutical companies offering cures for profit.

Does anyone know how you manufacture antibodies?

I know they are in plasma of people who had COVID but how do you make them? If it's so easy why wasn't this done with other viruses? I know about 10% of the population is immune from HIV - why couldn't they make anti-bodies for that too?

Just google it - way too technical for me but I think they use mice!!!!

Magnesium stearate is an ingredient is just about any pill you swallow.
It is simply a buffer between your stomach acid and the active composition.

I'm sceptical. Sounds like it's working great in vitro but most likely no in vivo tests yet.
