"No safety studies.
No efficacy studies.
No testing whatsoever.
No problem..."

Since you didn't qualify that, let me help you out since I know you don't want to create any FUD. Gileads drug remdesivir is being used as part of phase III testing. So safety and efficacy is know in a smaller controlled group. Phase III will break out into multiple test sites in much larger scale of patients. Sites are in Japan and China. Also the National Institute of health is using the drug in limited use in a Nebraska Medical facility. I believe the drug was created for a similar virus, not specifically for Corona.

Agreed! Remdesivir has been through major parts of the process.

But, Remdesivir is a drug to treat Wuhan virus.

The Chinese are talking about a vaccine to prevent infections with the Wuhan Virus.

Thanks for reminding us, though!
