The virus was in a liquid to which Brilacidin was added. It was then added to the VERO cells for incubation. Infection into the cells was greatly reduced at incubation. That is a prophylactic acting virucide.

I need to look up the clearance for Brilacidin to see how far in advance of a breakout it can be applied. What they are probably looking for is something that can be given at the leading edge of an infection wave to stop the early outbreak. If B remains in the system for several days, it can be used as a prophylaxis. I’d read they were looking at that aspect, but these results are surprising.
