I could not find the 226 billion documented ,but I did find this program announced a few months ago:

Interesting some of the viruses of interest named were the ones reported in the recent GMU research of Brilacidin's antiviral effects.

In addition to SARS-CoV-2, NCATS’ activities will address other viruses within the scope of the APP that represent known threats because of their pandemic potential. The table below shows virus families/orders and examples of viruses that the APP may target.


Viral Family/Order Example Viruses
Coronaviridae SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2
Bunyavirales Rift Valley fever, Hantavirus, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
Filoviridae Ebola, Marburg
Flaviviridae Yellow fever, Dengue, Zika
Paramyxoviridae Hendra, Nipah
Picornaviridae Enterovirus D68
Togaviridae Chikungunya

From post 366725

Bunyavirus infections are the causative agent in a number of serious human diseases.

Pneumonitis
-Hantavirus has a mortality rate of 35%

Brilacidin is also reported to be effective in some alpha viruses.

Alpha viral diseases include Togaviridae. Virus, chickungunya; Ross River; Mayaro; , O'nyong-nyong; Sindbis; eastern equine encephalitis; Venezuelan equine encephalitis.
