Early data on Gilead coronavirus medicine remdesivir is very encouraging -

• The University of Chicago Medicine recruited 125 people with Covid-19
• two Phase 3 clinical trials
• 113 had severe disease
• All the patients been treated with daily infusions of remdesivir
• "The best news is that most of our patients have already been discharged, which is great. We've only had two patients perish," said Kathleen Mullane, the University of Chicago infectious disease specialist overseeing the remdesivir studies for the hospital.

Just if you ask yourself what the rally in S&P Globex is all about....

 

Is that why I'm seeing movement after hours???

I thought it was on trump allowing some of the lockdown to be lifted and allowing states to make that justification. How come I don't see this news you posted about Gilead as breaking news?????

 

I'm seeing no breaking news on anything related to Gilead. Its up after hours yes but nothing on cnbc. Nothing on bloomberg

Got this as major headline on bloomberg

Finally.....

So now a drug was created in 1 month to find a cure for a covid 19 yet we have been pouring in trillions of dollars into research to find cures for cancer for decades and decades and decades and decades and cancer isn't even 100% curable. Add that to the list of billions of dollars into research for other diseases and illnesses out there.

Amazing how quick they found a cure.
