NanoViricides Inc. (NNVC)

[JG36]

You know nothing if you think a "drug will be announced soon", particularly if by "drug" you mean something that could be used on humans anytime the Wuhan cold is still an issue. If (big "if") NNVC is even working on a 'cide for coronavirus it will be at least a month before they have a 'cide they'd want to test. Then they'd have to try in on some animal models for some time, and probably iterate for some time with improved versions of the 'cide. In a year, assuming maximum speed, they'd have something to put through pre-IND toxicity testing. A year after that they might have IND approval, and can start phase I tests, which might start at best 6 months later. Three years from now, assuming NNVC proceeds much faster than it ever has before, they might be done with phase I trials. It will be at least 2 years after that before they'd get through phase II and phase III trials and a 'cide approved for sale.
So 5 years total is an optimistic estimate, and Wuhan cold will be a note in the history books by then.

Don't believe me? Go back to the start of this board and read about the long sad history of NNVC. I remember when 2018 was going to be the big year when NNVC finally got a 'cide approved for human use.
