Part of the "vaccine conspiracy" that I do believe in is the pharmas are chasing after it, knowing it will be a huge financial benefit for them. This goes for any med of course, but if they can potentially make something that every country HAS to buy, the results are obvious. So far almost everyone has acted like the most important thing in the world right now is dealing with the virus. Not everyone though; for them the most important thing is how to make money from it.

A treatment like this is likely to be even more effective (remember when I posted how vaccines work - and how they don't work) but won't make as much money, soooo...
Update to this, Israel say they have had a "major breakthrough" in isolating the antibody, and are one step closer to developing a treatment with it.

I am not 100% sure this is the same antibody, but I just woke up and the reports out there aren't detailed enough. I am like 98% sure it's the same one though...
