.. (3/7) 18, 24, 36, 60 months if ever? Other experts question whether anti-virals will work or whether monoclonal antibodies are enough to fight the virus, etc. Did I miss any expert concerns?....

... (5/7) We are in a pandemic and we need many scientific and clinical teams pursuing their well-formed hypotheses with rigorous and well controlled experiments to discover and develop the solutions we so desperately need...
... (6/7) Such expert speculation of what might not work is slightly more useful than often criticized, non-expert assertions of what definitely will work ...
...(7/7) Let us all just keep working on our different solutions and hope the effective ones will emerge and create new experts on what actually did work! @JNJNews @pfizer @GileadSciences @BioNTech_Group @Vir_Biotech @CureVacAG @Regeneron @moderna_tx @FlagshipPioneer
