As drug manufacturers speed up their efforts to find a new treatment drug for the coronavirus outbreak that has devastated China and has caused a world-wide panic, a Chinese drug company mid February announced that it has started mass-producing an experimental drug from Gilead Sciences that has the potential to fight the novel coronavirus
BrightGene Bio-Medical Technology, a Suzhou based company (2), just announced that it has developed the technology to synthesize the active pharmaceutical ingredients of Remdesivir, the drug developed by Gilead Biosciences. Its stock price surged 20% in Tuesday morning trading in Shanghai (1).
“While BrightGene said that it intends to license the drug from Gilead, its move to start manufacturing at this early stage is highly unusual and a potential infringement of the American company’s intellectual property.“(1) This comes a week after Chinese researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology filed an application to patent Gilead’s drug Remdesivir to treat the new coronavirus, a bid that would give China leverage over the global use of the therapy to fight the outbreak (1)(3)(4).
The decision to seek a patent instead of invoking a “compulsory license” option that lets nations override drug patents in national emergencies, signals China’s commitment toward intellectual property rights. The timing is uncanny! Right? Gilead will retain the global rights to market the antiviral medication, once approved (3). Gilead has also announced that it is partnering with the Chinese Health Authorities on the clinical trials of Remdesivir as a treatment for coronavirus (5). Remdesivir was originally developed in 2016 by Gilead as a treatment for the Ebola virus (13). Many have argued that China stole the patent from Gilead due to a technicality, but you will soon see that this is indeed not the case (14).
(5) And who exactly is Gilead Biosciences? Gilead is partnered with Wuxi Pharmaceuticals (Wuxi AppTec) owned by New World Order philanthropist and mass manipulator himself, George Soros (6)(7)! Here is a printout of Soros Fund Management Portfolio which will confirm this (8)!

HCQ with zinc and vitamin D.
OMG if our country wasn't sold out to Big Pharma every able person would be on this stuff daily for a year, and this bugaboo virus would be stopped dead in it's tracks.
Yes, you'd need 700 million pills a day just for the HCQ at 200mg per pill. That's 140K kilos. Daily. About the same for the zinc and the D. How much can a factory make? I know of 2 shut down pharmacuetical factories in the county I grew up in. How many others are out there? This is what real "we're at war" emergency action can accomplish. Even if the full 700 million couldn't be achieved at first, enough to treat everyone in a ring in and around the major outbreaks areas like NYC could have done a lot. But no ... it's bad bad bad because Trump mentioned it. And because there's no profit margin in it for the fat cats.
The level of self-destructive kneejerk stupidity in this whole situation is mind blowing.
