A very interesting article, Iwonder if MPL might have the same affect?

Roger Aston replied:

Certainly worth investigating!

Richard Mollard replied:

Thank you very much Graham,

I can see this group has been looking at ivermectin for a while to inhibit Dengue fever too. I tried to find the original Covid-19 article but it hasn't come up yet. I will keep an eye out. It would be good to get in touch with them.

It is my understanding that after taking the relevant action on patents, PAA instructed WEHI to undertake investigations. WEHI reported dual “Remarkable” results that were subsequently confirmed by 360biolabs.

As we all now know, the Leiden University continued with these investigations and have now reported positive results.

I am feeling pretty chuffed that my initial action twelve months ago may have resulted in a great outcome!

Cheers
