Aka “the virus that I will not name”
If anyone else is like me and interested in the progress on vaccines, this seems to be a decent (and understandable) post on the current efforts: A Close Look at the Frontrunning Coronavirus Vaccines As of April 23 | In the Pipeline[^]
The author works in the pharmaceutical industry (and the posts he has on “Things I won’t work with” are a delight while you’re there), so it’s not some random wahoo dripping opinions.

I'm going to be super-generous and assume he was merely expressing the truism that any form of cure we insert into the body (by IV or some cavity) to cure an infection is by definition the injection of a disinfectant ...
So maybe it's the colloquial use of the word "disinfectant" that's the issue here rather than the intellect of the leader of the free world.
Ooh, hang on though ...

The guy is a journalist. Meanwhile Oxford University started trials yesterday.

Quote: got his BA from Hendrix College and his PhD in organic chemistry from Duke before spending time in Germany on a Humboldt Fellowship on his post-doc. He’s worked for several major pharmaceutical companies since 1989 on drug discovery projects against schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, osteoporosis and other diseases.
If he is "just" a journalist, he seems to have more knowledge about what he writes than many journalists
I give you that the magazine takes distance from what he writes saying it is a blog giving his own opinion and that he doesn't represent them in that column.
So I suppose sometimes is either not totally correct or not politically correct.
But I find this particular entry, pretty good written and giving information in a relative neutral and competent way (missing in many other places).

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

And what surprise-the Oxford group is documented in the post you didn’t read.

I had logged in to CP just to post this.
