Agreed. I know I don’t have enough info or any idea of a solution, so I won’t claim to. I also realize that might make me part of the problem (or one of them)

I mostly don’t go down the rabbit hole because I’m working at home while chasing around a toddler.

Even if not yet 100%, it is good to hear that you are doing better, SBG! Is "everything" open, or did your workplace qualify for some semi-essential status to be back at it?

well that's some good news..... wonder how long the FDA will take to approve it and if they have any international partners that could take the solution outside the US before FDA approval...

The fact that the person who is making the claim is the person who founded and runs the company that makes it means you should probably take it with a grain of salt. There are a lot of quacks out there trying to sell fake corona virus cures (Alex Jones, Jim Bakker, etc.), so until clinical studies prove it actually works, I wouldn't put much stock in this.

Yes you have some validity in your post and ALWAYS be careful when listening to those with a vested interest, but thats the norm for nd CEOs and Founders/starters of companies to go on CNBC and other news/financial networks to speak about the product or service. This is where some due diligence should also come into play for that network and news service

There is BIG $ for the pharma companies and getting a vaccine for virus, hopefully sooner than later

Its probably a good thing that this thing is as big as it is in terms of this.

100% efficacy is a bold claim and will surely be picked apart by 3rd parties. Hope this is true.
