That would be great for Europe, and anyone who'd follow their action. I suspect the U.S. would take more convincing. Trump is enough of a wild card that he might be able to order the FDA to do it in spite of all their normal protocols. The drug he's currently pushing has lots of risks that patients need to consider before trying it. I believe it may have minor benefits for some, but their are some who could actually die of it's side effects if they react badly to it, rather than the coronavirus.

I think we should be clear, our drug isn't specifically for coronavirus, but it may generally work in all forms of pneumonia.

I've been very open to discussing my treatment for leukemia. A few months ago I went to the funeral of a friend, but like so many people he was private about being ill. I believe he actually had leukemia longer than I did, and was in remission, as I am, but in a weakened state, he was killed by pneumonia. I had been hospitalized by pneumonia a few times after receiving stem cells, I also had shingles which put me in the hospital as well, but I've been fortunate, at least thus far. My point is that pneumonia kills many people, not what caused the pneumonia. Common flu kills tens to hundreds of thousands worldwide annually, it's only about .1% of those who get it, but most of the deaths are caused by pneumonia. If we can assist in the cure of pneumonia in most patients we can save a lot of lives annually with, or without coronavirus.
