Excerpt from the Aytu BioScience press release this week:

ENGLEWOOD, CO / ACCESSWIRE / April 20, 2020 / Aytu BioScience, Inc. (NASDAQ:AYTU) (the “Company”), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on commercializing novel products that address significant patient needs announced today that it has signed an exclusive worldwide license from Cedars-Sinai to develop and commercialize the Healight Platform Technology (“Healight”). This medical device technology platform, discovered and developed by scientists at Cedars-Sinai, is being studied as a potential first-in-class treatment for coronavirus and other respiratory infections.

The company will host a live conference call and webcast Tuesday, April 21, 2020 at 4:30 p.m. ET. Conference call details are provided at the end of this press release.

Led by Mark Pimentel, MD, the research team of the Medically Associated Science and Technology (MAST) Program at Cedars-Sinai has been developing the patent-pending Healight platform since 2016 and has produced a growing body of scientific evidence demonstrating pre-clinical safety and effectiveness of the technology as an antiviral and antibacterial treatment. The Healight technology employs proprietary methods of administering intermittent ultraviolet (UV) A light via a novel endotracheal medical device. Pre-clinical findings indicate the technology’s significant impact on eradicating a wide range of viruses and bacteria, inclusive of coronavirus. The data have been the basis of discussions with the FDA for a near-term path to enable human use for the potential treatment of coronavirus in intubated patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Beyond the initial pursuit of a coronavirus ICU indication, additional data suggest broader clinical applications for the technology across a range of viral and bacterial pathogens. This includes bacteria implicated in ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP).

“Our team has shown that administering a specific spectrum of UV-A light can eradicate viruses in infected human cells (including coronavirus) and bacteria in the area while preserving healthy cells,” stated Dr. Pimentel of Cedars-Sinai. Ali Rezaie, MD, one of the inventors of this technology states, “Our lab at Cedars-Sinai has extensively studied the effects of this unique technology on bacteria and viruses. Based on our findings we believe this therapeutic approach has the potential to significantly impact the high morbidity and mortality of coronavirus-infected patients and patients infected with other respiratory pathogens. We are looking forward to partnering with Aytu BioScience to move this technology forward for the benefit of patients all over the world.”

The company believes the Healight platform technology has the potential to positively impact outcomes for critically ill patients infected with coronavirus and severe respiratory infections. The company licensed exclusive worldwide rights to the technology from Cedars-Sinai for all endotracheal and nasopharyngeal indications. Patents have been filed by Cedars-Sinai Department of Technology Transfer, and Aytu BioScience will manage all aspects of intellectual property prosecution and filing globally. Aytu BioScience expects to partner the product outside the U.S.

“We are honored to be partnering with Cedars-Sinai as we believe the Healight therapeutic platform has the potential to help many patients during this coronavirus pandemic and beyond,” said Josh Disbrow, Chairman and CEO of Aytu BioScience.

The Company is engaging with the research team at Cedars-Sinai and the FDA to determine an expedited regulatory process to potentially enable near-term use of the technology initially as a coronavirus intervention for critically ill intubated patients.

Disbrow continued, “This first-in-class technology has the potential to be a game changer for clinicians treating patients infected with coronavirus and other respiratory conditions, and our team is working tirelessly alongside the Cedars-Sinai team to determine the safety and effectiveness of this device in humans.”

It is becoming more and more obvious that there are forces at work in this world that do not want to find a solution to this corona virus problem. I have not been prone to conspiracy theories but my resistance to this way of thinking is being sorely tested.

Or this guys work on FAR UVC light

[Alas Babylon!]

To me, this story isn’t about whether UV light can or cannot help, but rather Youtube and their absolutely disgusting POLITICAL reasons to pull this video.

There are many others videos about subjects they disagree with or are opposed to politically they pull that should be left alone.

Sure, they can do this legally, but they really suck and are penny wise and pound foolish to do so. I’m just one guy, not a tech giant, but they’re going to back themselves into losing their property some day.

And in on that day, I’ll smile.

Youtube says we should ONLY listen to the WHO.

[DannyTN]

This claims to be a reupload of the video

[Norski]

Suggest alternatives to Youtube:

Vimeo = an alternative.

Twitch - mostly gaming.

UGETube — sponsored by Utah Gun Exchange.
Recommend over the other two. Much smaller, it is time to grow.

[Maris Crane]

I hope we can get to the bottom of this.

This really scares me.

Who is Susan Wojciski?

She's the one that threatened just days ago to remove any content that was against the WHO.

Susan Diane Wojcicki is an American technology executive. She has been the CEO of YouTube since February 2014. Wojcicki was involved in the founding of Google, and became Google's first marketing manager in 1999. She later led the company's online advertising business and was put in charge of Google's original video service. After observing the success of YouTube, Wojcicki proposed the acquisition of YouTube by Google in 2006. Wojcicki has an estimated net worth of nearly $500 million.

Democrats are evil beyond our comprehension.

I just went to YouTube and the video seems to have been reposted. It’s available now but there is no reason posted for why it was taken down.

[cymbeline]

UV light treatment is merely another frequency in the spectrum of well established radiation treatment.

We know that radiation at certain frequencies kills certain things.

Getting a UV source near harmful cells seems like an obvious area of therapy to explore.

Someone named Jeanine Schlumbohm posted this:

This is a bogus investor scam and Cedar-Sinai is not involved in this research. The COVID-19 virus lives throughout the body and not just the lungs. Please People, for the love of God, get some education.

[Flick Lives]

The video is now labeled, “This video has been removed for violating YouTube’s Terms of Service”.

Reasons? Orange man Bad!

[fella]

The Hydroxychloroquine-Zinc success treatments is driving the leftist media nuts, they can’t allow Trump to have another success.

[silverleaf]

No rational excuse to take down a video by a high tech company that just WON a govt research study
Pure science and tech

Pure hatred of Trump
Hate hate

Nice, sunny, warm day here in CNY. A real treat.

I hung out my laundry, as usual, and also hung out my face masks to disinfect in the sun.

They are probably owned by the same company that owns drudge retort.
