is a more detailed look at the product. Seems to be a decoy/barrier concept, which aims to kill the viral particles on the way in and/or get them to waste themselves targetting the protective solution instead of human mucosal cells.
They ran a reasonably sized trial in India which did show good numbers, so it will be interesting to see if they hit the same in a larger Phase 3.
Sounds interesting. Can we agree that the pace of these medicines fighting COVID has been outstanding!

I’ll snort the shit out of that.
This sounds like something you’d need to spray in your nose like twice per day and it would probably be pretty expensive to do..well for years I would guess. Not the ideal solution, but I guess better than not having it.
