Sidebar and others,

I suggest you listen to the webcast again or read Imtesty's transcript. They only stated that they are planning to do experiments in cells. From my read, there is no definitive plan for an apabetalone Covid19 trial yet. My hope is that one or more of the vaccines in trial right now passes with flying colors in the next 6-12 months. And hopefully with vaccine availability, there will be less demand and need for treatments due to immunization.

"With third-party funding in place now, we are currently moving forward with studies on human lung and related human lung tissues. These cells are instead of the monkey kidney cells. These studies will aid us in forwarding our plans for human clinical trials involving COVID-19. Our primary goal will be to show there’s a reduction of the viral load in patients, as well as a swifter recovery time from hospitalization."
