Out of curiosity, when did the drug get the name Emiplacel. Don't get me wrong, it's a step in the right direction as it's something that typically happens before drugs are approved.

It will be interesting to see if the name is used in all future releases about the development of the drug.

I certainly would like to know what the German's are doing with the drug. If they started a trial shortly after announcing the agreement, they could be several weeks into the trial. It's my belief that one month after a patients been dosed the outcome is pretty well established. It's doubtful if a ventilator patient dosed with the drug would still be on the ventilator, some may die, but I believe the overwhelming majority will be off the ventilator, and most will probably be out of the hospital. As I understand it, side effects can last for months, but patients gradually do get better. I do believe organs beyond the lungs may be harmed, and once again our drug may help with their healing.
