Where does mice or monkey's come in regarding Covid-19 tests at RBL?



What did you think the RBL was putting in a grant for?

In vivo testing would be testing in live animals (mice/monkeys...whatever is appropriate for COVID).

today the Company and researchers at a U.S. Regional Biocontainment Laboratory (RBL) are collaborating on a federal grant application to be submitted this week.

The proposed research aims to evaluate Brilacidin as a potential pan-coronavirus therapeutic, for treating SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV, including extending the current in vitro testing of Brilacidin to in vivo testing. Longer-term objectives include potentially performing additional research to develop Brilacidin as a broad-spectrum antiviral, with possible application beyond coronaviruses, e.g., treating other viruses, such as encephalitic alphaviruses and filoviruses.



You would do well to review very recent PRs put out by the company before you throw stones.
