Title: Is it possible that Distributed Bio has a cure?
Post by: GoalTorrent on 31/03/2020 16:29:12

Dr. Jacob Glanville of Distributed Bio is on many news programs with promising claims to have come up with a cure that could be available by the summer.  Is this possible?  He claims to be looking at different methods than others.

His background is Stanford University in Computational and Systems Immunology, so it seems that this may be real.

Someone with the proper technical understanding needs to review his claims and see what it means.

Thank you,
Ralph

Giving a treatment to the military to test is the foundation of good science... do you need to ask?
Sounds like a chancer after a big handout. I don't know about making antibodies outside the body, but if it's promising I'd find somebody else to do it.
