Agreed, interesting listening each morning and whilst he is a little strange it does clarify a few of the facts.

Gilead drug does not stop the virus but appears to cut the recovery time to around 7 days and lowers patient incubation rate dramatically and thus death rate.

Cases are dropping but one would expect as countries reopen they will rise but with the plan to reopen aims to control this to not overwhelm the health system. This is the biggest change in the talk this morning, even NSW premier touted this line.

So yes hope abounds and this should be good for markets so maybe the recovery in the markets whilst not straight up will hopefully be a bit quicker than some expected. Time will tell but it would appear at this stage the world has done a pretty good job of controlling something that could have ben much, much worse.
