Paladin ... no expert bro, and barely knowledgable in this area. But, we have moved in break neck record speed coming up with Covid vaccines to address critical need. Are they the best we can come up with, or can they be improved over more time and study, especially as the experience/learning curve matures? Vaccines are not without imperfections, and not effective for all, as well. There is potential for better vaccines, and "treatment" for those that do not take the vaccine, or get Covid anyway. What if ACE2 is the true answer and key, and apabetalone is the only (or best and safest) method for halting Covid in its tracks? EEspecially for already sick patients, with Cardio/Renal issues? What about future mutations?
Okay, more questions than answers on my part. My overall point is that we are wayyyy early in understanding and dealing with Covid, and Covid related pathogens, with mutations to likely come as well. If we can design and develop something that stops the entire Covid family in its tracks? ... then, we gonna be wealthy.
It is also cool if in the course of treating the already identified sick patients in Cardio/Renal that may respond well to apabetalone, we get an additional benefit and safety net RE Covid for them, as they are highly vulnerable.
Just some thoughts. No answers though haha
