"What am i missing?"
What I believe Leo is doing is the following;...
Remember, he stated in a previous PR that discussions are continuing...
I believe he threw in the Remdesivir comment to add pressure to the other parties, he is in discussions with, as a ploy to increase what deal he is working on.
It's that or he is trying to get more attention, in the real world, regarding our capabilities with Brilacidin.
Or both!
