ugh cart before horse- "every reason to be optimistic" is not acccurate at all. So what if the drug has all those desirable properties. It means nothing if it does not work. Having 1-7 attributes of a perfect drug is just wonderful, but only if the Bio Lab tests show clearcut anticorona activity
1-7 will mean a lot in the world of corona treatments once the candidates that kill or blunt the virus are assembled, and ready for prime time real life trials.
But there is absolutely NOT "every reason to be optimistic" yet
FWIW: same bogus and misleading statement made about BUP results predicting success for BUC!
