A strong possibility of completely curing viral infections from common cold to HIV and herpes needs funding. MIT Lincoln Laboratory has developed DRACO, an anti-viral drug that was proven effective and perfectly safe for ALL tested viruses in cell and mice trials.
The development has slowed significantly over the past 11 years due to difficulty of getting grants for the next stage of research, & the commercial pharma investors prefer lifelong treatments.
Administration should fund DRACO research & do whatever is possible to speed up the development and possible approval of the drug that could save millions from death and lifelong misery as well as save millions in healthcare costs. Biological warfare defense possibilities are also significant.
