Distributed Bio co-founder and CEO Dr. Jacob Glanville joined "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Friday to talk about his company's laboratory engineering a therapeutic antibody to combat the coronavirus.
"So what we have done is we've engineered neutralizing antibodies that go and block the virus. The coronavirus, if you were to zoom in on it, you would see a series, a ring of spikes, and it uses those spikes to invade human cells," Glanville said. "We've identified a series of super potent antibodies that block those spikes and therefore make the virus no longer infectious."
Glanville explained the power of antibodies, saying it helped during the Ebola epidemic.
"This is the thing that turned the tide against Ebola. The Ebola used to be a death sentence, about 50 percent mortality rate," Glanville said. "And then once a good antibody neutralizing solution was made, then I think 94 percent of people can walk away."
"So that transformed Ebola from a dangerous crisis to a manageable treatment," Glanville added.
The doctor also spoke about the advantages of antibodies over vaccines.
"We've also got antibodies to treat rabies. We've got antibodies to treat RSV in babies. Antibodies are used to for anti-venom. So this is extremely well-established platform technology. It has the advantage," Glanville said. "You can produce antibodies much faster than you can make a vaccine. And as I'd heard you mentioned previously on all that modeling, every day counts. We're venting an incredible amount of money out of our economy and risking lives. And so you want to have a medicine as quickly as possible."
Glanville outlined the process, hoping to go toward human trial this summer.
"Our next move is we hand this off to the U.S. military, a consortium from the Gates Foundation and some private groups.

what he failed to mention is that the earliest this “cure” could be available to the masses is this coming November ... Tucker didn’t want to let him get that far in the interview because it would make the “cure” (and the “bombshell” interview) essentially moot ..
“Silver kills all viruses and bacteria. It’s a fact.”
Hydrofluoric acid kills all viruses and bacteria. It’s a fact. ... but i don’t advise people to drink it ...
I have to admit this Glanville dude is pretty convincing. If I was going down with covid, I’d try this treatment.
Give it to the Gates Foundation?
Gates will most likely squelch it.
It will be made illegal by every DNC Gov.
If simply mixing carrot and orange juice were the cure, every Dem controlled state would make Oj illegal.
Dr. “Doom” and his merry band of communist RAT governors will deride it, ban it and make it out as non-plausible approach. Ever wonder why they’d do that? /s
Patent first then deep six
I know the Glanville family. I think Jacob is Very smart and dedicated and isn’t in it for the money like Fauci is. Fauci wants to wait for the vaccine.
But I hope Jacob Glanville wins this one.
Fauci has NO IDEA what it is like to run a business or the hard work it takes to make it successful he looks at everything through his prism of him getting a paycheck for 3° years from the government he has NO CONCEPT of people suffering in a failed economy because HE has never experienced that EVER!!! The first words out of the media today when Fauci wasn’t on the platform was “WHERE IS FAUCI” when the press are fawning over him you KNOW that we have a problem!! Fauci is a through and through deep state bureaucrat!!! I can’t stand this guy but Trump is stuck with him BUT these models are pure CRAP and Trump can hang them around Fauci’s neck!! In the mean time Trump can drain the swamp he started today the MSM is so busy with the virus this is the perfect opportunity!!!
Just what I was thinking when I read the article. I really do not like this generation’s super rich. I would take, Vanderbilt, Carnegie, Rockefeller, and Morgan over Gates, Soros, Bloomberg. The old robber barons didnt want to control my personal life. These guys do.
Silver nanoparticles are a real thing AgNP it uses a phenomena called plasmon polariton excitation at the surface of metallaic material - I'm not making this shit up I swear I think its possible to use these AgNP to fight the Chinese virus.
The NIH has a 2011 article on silver nano-particles and their possible effectiveness against viruses. Nothing on coronavirus however. There hasn’t been enough testing but it may hold promise:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6264685/
I'm thinking is one of the key things is getting a plasmon poloriton surface of 10nanometers or less will be needed to effectively snag these buggers.
Tomorrow spending some time trying to model the volume of these individual virus I think the exact size is known and they pretty darn tiny hence the 10 namometers or smaller
The Covid virus (SARS-CoV-2) is thought to be 70-90 nm in size.
It’s in the “2. Analysis of the structure of the virus by electron micrographs” section of this artice:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7045880/
yes thank you I’m reading it now - this is great information. Do you mind if I send your freep mail the notes I’m accumulating on this project I’ve start working on? Most likely anything meaningful will be at the end of tomorrow. I’ve already printed out a graphene filter and am trying to characterize (electronically) the PLA infused with graphene. Maybe I have a way of cramming the nanoparticles into the PLA
There’s no guarantee that I’ll understand it but feel free to send it.
I’m so out of my league - its just I keep doing searches on things (pretty specific) and articles and recent books started popping up all on the cutting edge of biomedical science and biomedical device and sensor fabrication. I think what they are saying in their nomenclature and what I for some reason intuitive suspect are in alignment. Cool I’ll keep you posted - don’t worry you’ve seen my posts I’m a room temperature IQ at best
I guess it depends on whether mere contact with silver harms the virus. If that’s the case then you may well be on the right track. Mask filters, maybe air handling filters.
The NIH article mentions that other metal nano-particles may also be effective; gold gets mentioned as well as non-precious metals. No one knows because this possibility hasn’t been investigated enough.
