A lot of money (Billions) was involved and it was to get vaccines on the street.

With Covid-19 still being a threat, there are still avenues available to fast track treatments to the market.

I couldn't tell you the odds of Sunshine Covid-19 treatment getting to the market however if their testing continues to show promise then it is certainly possible.

Currently, we are advancing the development of these two compounds in parallel with our SBFM-PL4 by conducting a transgenic mice study in collaboration with the University of Georgia. The mice being used in the study have been genetically engineered to express the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) transmembrane protein in their lungs making them susceptible to lethal infection by SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19. The SARSCoV-2 virus uses the hACE2 receptor to gain entry into human cells to replicate. The goal of the study is to determine if our protease inhibitors will protect the hACE2-transgenic mice from disease progression and death following infection with SARS-CoV-2 virus. Should these mice studies prove successful, we plan to submit the results to the FDA for authorization to conduct testing on actual COVID-19 patient volunteers in a Phase I clinical trial setting. The implications of a COVID-19 treatment becoming available are vast. This is particularly the case in view of the fact that some of the variants emerging around the world are more virulent and may escape neutralization by the current vaccines.
